It's hard to remember life before smartphones and constant internet connection

[AlwaysLurkin]

Just turned 34, so the smartphone era so far is small part of my life on earth so far

Im 29, i didnt get my first phone til lke 15. Smart phones werent really big til about late 2008-early 2009 (when the iphone 3g started taking off).

6-7 years ago pretty much. When girls be like "you suck at texting back" n shyt. Half the reason cause i dont care about the conversation. Other half is cause it just wasnt my generation. Was the last generation that face to face interaction was more common/normal than texting.

I'd rather go back to the days of buying a mixtape cd every week than having all this wack music at your disposal

Lol I was late as fukk in the smartphone era. My fam actually forced me to get on that wave. Its almost surreal how everyone uses them for everything...like everything. I used my first b.s. cricket smartphone for music and calling. Texting was a rarity as well...funny shyt I never cared to watch open until these birches popped up. Going out is cool until you realize its just most people staring at their phones or snapchattin instead of enjoying the moment. Best part of life. Edit 34 btw if that matters.

The smartphone era has been the past 5 years for me at 32.


90s babies dont know what the world was like before the internet.

Change that shyt to late 90s babies because i remember it all.

I remember those old school days. Back when we were using Windows 3.0. Motherfukkers didn't know what a start button was back then. When it was either go online or play solitaire. Chatting on aim and aol chat. Back when Napster was popping off. My moms having to call compuserve to get us back on cuz me or my brother had downloaded a tracked file and got us kicked off. Those demo discs we would get in the mail for the free trial. Back when I had the Nokia with no color on the screen. Calls, texts, and playing Snake.

No it isn't you lame goofy.

What you know having a stack of Warcraft (not II, III, or WoW) and spending your free time reading those manuals.

You know you got trolled when you DL'd a song and the first shyt you hear is that Bill Clinton "I did not have sexual relations with that woman..."

The limewire era

That was 17 years of my life before 9/11.

The past 15 are interesting to say the least.

I fear for the future seriously.

why?

 

[C-NICE]

Even better question what if the internet ever stopped

Even better question what if the internet ever stopped

The world may cease to exist

I don't have constant internet connection but yeah. Life was probably better before all of that.

Motherfukkers actually had social skills back then, .
