Two young girls (probably high school) walked into the store today and purchased something (I must have looked bored) and this is how the conversation went:
Me: Total is $10.94
Girl: You must be so bored.
Me: Ya, I'm a little bored today...but I have the internet to keep me company.
Girl: Oh ya mean like facebook?
How sad is it that when kids these day (yes, I used "kids these days", I'm old enough to use that line) hear the word "internet" all they can think of is "facebook". I hear internet and think "knowledge at my fingertips", not "mindless site for posting useless crap"......we're all doomed. The stupid (yes, that's the medical term for it) has taken over the minds of most everyone now, only a few sparks of intelligence remain left and they will be eventually killed by the stupid or ridiculed into extinction.
