    In the real world, “sexters” are called “flashers” and they are always in high resolution. Unless you’re nearsighted.

    The difference is, no one forces another to consume social media but too often people demand that type of attention IRL”

    One I find stupid is people actually thinking celebrity problems are important in the scheme of things. Who gives a darn what is going on with Meghan and Harry and why should I care? Then there are the celebrities I have have no idea why they are celebrities like Kardashians. Don’t people have their own lives to live?

    This is true about social media, but we can just scroll on by and not pay attention there. If it was like that in life, it would be harder to get away

    I love the comments on cartoons here. Sometimes they are funnier than the cartoon. Also, I got on Facebook to keep in touch with people from my hometown and work (after I retired).

    After some time, I realized that the former is still fun and the latter was a chore, so I left.

    social media wouldn’t be such a problem if hadn’t taught several generations that each person is “special”, instead of teaching them no one person is better than any other person intrinsically

    Are we all addicts now? Is there a dopamine or some other clinically detectable reward sensation/rush, even from something as simple as making (or even just reading) comments? Never mind the full time on-line social media/clickswipe infused life of so many people.

    I’m REALLY not posting this here. I have no need for recognition, or to give some stranger a laugh, or to irritate those who don’t agree with me, or point out someone’s ignorance. I’m just SO evolved! (Unlike you sad, lonesome failures!) /s
