Why I just don’t care

Facebook, twitter, instagram. Whatever it may be i just don’t really give a crap. Honestly I find they make some people very antisocial especially at parties because it seems like everyone who is anyone has all this on their phones. When you are at a party you don’t need to peer at your phone every few minutes, just set it down for the night and I promise you everything will end up just fine. You might even have more fun because you are with the people at the party instead of the people online. You can’t beat face to face communication, its way better than anything like Facebook, twitter or even Skype could do. If this is how technology is taking over life today I am afraid to see what it is like when I am 60. I want my grandchildren to actually talk to me instead of only caring about the next shiny new technology related thing that comes out in the stores.

Even just typing on this computer, I would honestly rather be doing something else, it is beautiful fall day here and I am stuck here with this thing shining in my eyes, making them hurt. If technology is apparently so good, then why does it make my eyes hurt and give me a headache? I am pretty sure people become less intelligent the more technology they use, because I always see phones on in class, and a lot of people don’t pay attention to a single thing the teacher is saying so they pretty much learn nothing their whole high school career. They are too focused on their phone to concentrate and learn. A lot of people just take phones in general way to far because it seems like some people are literally going to be in pain without their phones. It pathetic, don’t be one of those people, try getting a real life, not a fake one online. (328)
