Does it bother you that the world is becoming less social?

I'm not bothered by it. As an introvert i tend to dread social interaction sometimes. We have the internet these days anyway we will all be ok.

It bothers me as we are social beings I understand that we have people that are introverts but one the core things that makes us human beings is our ability to socialise and communication is a massive factor in that, we have developed so many ways of doing so the art of language, touch, expression. Devices are taking that away. Here's a thing I miss going to Hmv and spending hours with my friends listening to music through those earphones. Or going to a blockbuster to rent a film you're desperate to see, sometimes not getting your first choice but having the patience and excitement until it's available again.
The modern world is creating a self absorbed, entitled & inpatient society that burn out fairly quickly. For the sake of man kind I finally hope it levels out.
I'm all for progression but the changes over the last 20 years have been phenomenal!
