dillydally: Downfall !!!! Been saying it for years , this will throw us back into the dark ages ...........
Good thread choice
Thanks dillydally. Hope all is well with you. I'm on the fence with this, I can't even answer my own thread question, but I am interested in hearing everyone else's input. Maybe I will learn something and curious to hear other people's opinions/comments.

Very good actually , thankyou for asking Hope you're well ?!
I know it sounds cheesy but I think of Book of Eli and Mad Max (without the mental bits) and yeah ok it's sad but I have a zombie apocalypse handbook and the starting of a med kit ......... cause yi never know! I halfheartedly believe it wont be in my gen or the boys gen either .... yeah
I don't think technology will be our downfall....its how people use it that will be our down fall...already socialization with people right in front of you and not on your phone is an issue as is communication skills and ability.....

I'm fine too, thanks for asking also. You sound well prepared, just in case if anything like that or extraterrestrial stuff happened in this generation, I'm screwed!

Hey lady. Hope you're feeling better.
And you made some great points too. The socializing is already a problem!

Forget sending me a kit, just make one for me, oh, by the way, can I move in with you?
Don't blame technology, because it definitely could be our salvation. Unfortunately the human condition (especially today) is drawn towards negativity, tribalism, cynicism, group-think, closed-mindedness and every other ill, technology could be used to cure. Now it's now being used to enhance, strengthen and spread those ills instead. A flawed society with equally damaged and flawed people could never create and maintain anything that's a 100% positive.

yep im feeling a lot better thanks.....people are present anymore....physically...emotionally or mentally....they cant shut off their phones or not answer them in order to be completely present and in the moment with who is right in front of them......hope you're well too....

Thanks for commenting. I believe you also made some valid points.

M4_Mischief: I agree....when I go out I leave my phone home so I can enjoy where Im actually gonna be....if someone would rather text when they are with me they can leave and text to their hearts content...I don't need to be present to sit and watch you text other people while not even focussing on having a convo with me....
