"Social Media" means you are good with "Clickers" and "Mouses"

It is really breathtaking to behold the development of society from the olden days when folks gathered over coffee in the early morn to talk of issues...and for the locals, farmers gathered to talk of crops, weather, etc, and the ladies talked of other matters... Nowdays, with all the development of "social skills" kids can stop by a Starbucks...and well just stop in one and see what is happening...all the students with their headphones on, sipping a coffee, and checking their phone every couple of seconds to make sure that they will not be criticized for not responding fast enough to every little digital need... Nowdays, a "friend" is someone that you have clicked on, and "Liked"...How wonderful is that...pretty special and satisfying I would guess if one was a modern, and satisfied by clicking... So how about you?...time to take off the headphones and respond to the wonder....I just wonder how social you have become, and whether in your old age, with a weathered mouse and mousepad, you will be wonderfully happy alone.
