Is a click bait title I thought of on my ride home. Funny, the things you think of when out on a ride. I am starting to think 2016 is the year that the insidious nature of the internet finally bled into every part of our culture. Politicians with no actual policies can win elections based on sound bites on twitter. When actual lies get you more votes. Trolling used as a weapon against terrorists, terrorists using trucks as weapons on people. Six months until Trump pushes the button.
I have become bored of beautiful pictures because they all have HDR. People calling me on speaker phone from a city street then being outraged when I ask them to repeat what they are saying. Everyone with their own self centred universe in their hand. Feel free to vent your first world post modern angst here.
I am going to watch some more Glastonbury highlights. Daughter.

Back in the day, it used to be adults complaining about skateboarding corrupting the youth and destroying society and how watching cartoons on TV destroyed their (the kids) attention spans. People don’t change – have a look at this list: http://mentalfloss.com/article/52209/15-historical-complaints-about-young-people-ruining-everything
Chess!
Think that list proves we’re better off making peace with the world around us.
(Then a twat in a moped buzzes and beeps at you with his stupid looking JD Sports backpack and you can think of nothing else but catching him at the lights and hooking him at 30MPH
