go outside

the written word was a mistake

you dun goofed
He knew it yet no one listened to him.
>go inside

I'm glad it's socially acceptable to be anti-social, now I don't have to talk to anyone.
At least now you don't have make eye contact or talk to them.
>and this is user our son
>he sits behind his computer all day
>stay of the threshold of the house
>both inside and outside, yet also neither
...
I've never seen this happening before the age of smartphones, it must have been a trend of the early 1900s that didn't last much.
>went to friends house the other day
>has friends over that I've never met
>quickly introduces me then everyone goes back to staring at their phones
...
>go to Sup Forums
>everyone staring at people on their phones
They only read the paper in the morning you dumb fuck, 100 years ago nobody read papers for 17 hours a day like retards do with smartphones these days. You fucking idiot.
Where that character from? I remember he gets very depressed. Something about night vision goggles also is familiar.
it's a blessing in disguise
Fuck! How could I forget ATHF?
>friends invite me over to watch movies
>I'm the only one that isn't looking at my phone the entire time
>every time
What's even the point.
The "everyone is staring at their phones" or "phones destroyed a generation ! " only exist because old people need excuse for talk shit about millenials
everyone is staring at their telegraphs
everyone is staring at their trains
everyone is staring at their Californian gold mines
everyone is staring at their paints in caves
>going outside
This image is retarded. Allow me to revise it:
imagine a world where...
>...you have an endless number of ways to feel alive
most of which being far out of your price range
>...trillions of reasons to never be bored...
narrow it down to maybe 12 reasons. eating isn't something you should do out of boredom.
>...an infinity of beautiful things you can create...
a baby is beautiful for 10 minutes. then its a major pain in the ass.
everything else requires talent, of which you likely have little or none.
>...already so many beautiful things to behold...
like paintings. and dogs. sure.
>...and 7 billion crazy characters to play along with.
this one gets under my skin the most.
99.9999999999% of those characters don't even know you and there's virtually no way to start a legitimate, worthy conversation with them.
a lot of those people would try to kill and/or rape you.
you have, in reality, maybe 10 people to interact with, logically, at any given moment.

Bazinga! #forthegamers
This should be reposted everytime someone replies with an image of how people used to read newspapers just like people use phones these days.
Well yea because they only could only get their hands on the morning news, nowadays we could get news 24/7 from around the fucking globe.
Fucking newfaggot scum fuck queerbag shitstained cum-dumped onahole cunt
>nowadays we could get news 24/7 from around the fucking globe
And most if it is completely meaningless and you only read it for transient entertainment. People have forgotten how to be bored.
Back then it was more like newspaper user
>Imagine a world where everyone was created equal.
>Where everyone could afford to go do nice things.
>Where everyone could get laid with a hot date.
>Where people didn't treat you like low life scum or try to steal from you.
>Where everyone was not some selfish asshole.
>Where women were not just interested in you for your wallet (Test this on some dating site and see how many replies you get if you proclaim you are NEET no matter how good looking you may be).
>Where infectious diseases did not exist.
Yeah. Nah. I'll stick to muh NEET life thanks.
This
They would if they had magic papers that had more news every second.
No, you underage shit. You just saw the brief window between home broadband reaching most of the country and smartphones. People absolutely did that with newspapers up until broadband rendered once a day printing behind the times.
don't say NEET b/c NEET means you don't live your house and thus obviously unbalanced
say "musician" or "poet"
Yea. Definitely agree. Even in fucking McDonalds you pay at digital cash. Fuck society.
He literally looks like The Virgin.
This but unironically.
>broadband rendered once a day printing behind the times.
This isn't true even to this day in many parts of the world you absolute fucking autistic and people aren't staring at newspapers everyday where it isn't so.
People being bored is the reason some greeklet faggot managed to figure out shit like the Steam engine back when the pinacle of technology was beating each other over the head with iron rods.

Consumerist technology was a mistake. I'm now convinced that tech illiteracy is at an all-time high, and that "what's a computer" is a reality.
All of pre-christian society knew, which is why its hard to find out about ancient european mans spirituality and traditions
Why would I want to be social with you when I can be social with significantly more interesting people online?
Man, id hate to see the world through your eyes.
I live in Hawaii. That was a fun day.

So true.
They gave them out for free on that train. Likely a newsworthy event of the day.
They didn't believe in waste.
Don't act like you aren't one of them.

Forget where you are? It's quite possible that OP doesn't have a phone. I know I don't.
nietzsche disagrees
>I have many lives
its not like you would talk to anyone if they weren't.

That's where you fucked up user

None of them are retarded. They are literally factual.
I'd rather shitpost about desktop environments here than deal with normies when I'm outside
Human intelligence peaked thousands of years ago and we've been on an intellectual and emotional decline ever since.
This
they're looking at better paintings on their phones
>go outside
>everyone is staring at their phones
>proceed to look for the next track to play on my phone
>stare at my phone
>everyone is outside
We reached the age when normalfags stare at their phone screens more than a Sup Forumsentooman or Sup Forumsirgin stares at his monitor.
Yet we are the "nerds".

i feel sorry for you
>peaked intelligence thousands of years ago
>went from the Roman Empire into the dark ages while intelligence declined
>then entered the medieval age leading its way up into the industrial revolution
>invented the steam engine
>intelligence was still declining
>moved into the technological age, stopping off along the way to discover advanced physics, fully harness the power of alternating currents, and generate radio waves for long distance communication
>intelligence declined even further

Lol, like any of those things don't require an ass load of money and being lucky enough to have a good job in the first place.
I agree with this post. I wish I didn't, but I do.

fuck all these luddite mongoloids invading this board
this is Sup Forums not /out/
now gtfo
what do people even do on their phones that needs their attention for such long periods of time? My typical phone session looks like this,
>check phone for messages
>if no messages, put phone away
>if messages, reply and put phone away again
Sometimes I'll read news articles but everything else just gets boring really fast.
this
mobile culture is a plague that made everything bad abouth technology 15x worst
we /gout/ now
Normies and their "social" media.
Sup Forums and manga mostly, at least for me
Can you get problems by swiping the thumb on your phone 24/7?
dumb phoneposter
Just because things were never better in the past doesn't mean that everything is to be accepted without question.
We should strive for "thus of ould" over "thus now" regardless of whether or not the former is in fact old.
