    Don’t make the same mistake as our generation and fall for TikTok, Instagram and that shit.

    Almost everything is better without it, from concerts to weekend trips to relationships.

      It’s super sad to see. We used to complain about kids being fed digital “contents” as pacifiers, but now I constantly see older people super fixated with their phone watching tiktok videos. 😔

        Computers and their interfaces? Way beyond the familiarity of older folks. TikTok? That’s just rapid-fire TV. That’s channel surfing where every flip is a reward. That’s gambling and standup combined.

        It’s kind of insidious.

          Based on your comment I tried to get Dalle to generate a combination video slots and social media game.

          Limited success. Album shows images generated during the process:

            The fact that I didn’t notice the end of your post, and started mindlessly scrolling through the Related Posts is hilarious and sadly ironic.

      Are you kidding? The 40-50 generation invented falling for stupidity of social media. Talk to 60-70 gen instead.

        True, I hoped the next generation wouldn’t make the same mistake…

      Concerts. Is that some kind of offline activity from the past?

      Okay, try getting past a first date with someone who asks for your “insta”.

        Maybe it’s the wrong person if they can’t be with someone who doesn’t use Instagram ;)
