You don't see people sit out on the porch much. Kids certainly don't play in the street anymore. And when we do venture outside, we climb in our cars, crank the A/C and the radio, pick up the cell and don't even bother to honk our horns.

Time was we would venture outside, climb in our cars, crank the A/C and the radio, pick up our cells, and not even bother to honk our horns.
Now however nobody would even pick up their car keys without first raping every one of their neighbours and ending the ordeal with a moneyshot of sulphuric acid.
Bus stops.

In the old days if you got on the wrong side of a German you would find a bomb dropped on your city. You knew where you were. Today if you could even find that same German, chances are he'd be in panorama bar with the little woman.

The 29-year-old father of one relieves himself while deep in conversation on his mobile phone, leaving a pool of urine on the pavement.
After finishing the call, he reaches into his back pocket for his wallet.

It's clear from his face he has demanded Winston Churchill forces his mouth open, and delightedly pumped urine down the great man's gullet. As a final "one in the eye" for Britain, he "shakes" the remaining droplets on the corpse of a soldier, abandoned in Oxford Street by Tony Blair.

No sooner has he refastened his trouser cord than he's at it again, this time the pop hopeful "has a wank" at the home of music legend Robin Gibb, who has diabetes.

When I was a kid I didn't have an XBox, or Wii. I had a bike and a curfew (the street lights). Mum didn't call my mobile, she yelled outside, "time to come in". I played outside with friends, not Online. If I didn't eat what my mum made me then I didn't eat. Hand sanitizer didn't exist, but you COULD get your mouth washed out with soap. Re-post this if you drank water out of a hose...and survived!

Thought this revival was going to be about a Daily Mail article today about the 14 year old who died at a party in West London:
But one of her teachers blamed her downward spiral on an addiction to the internet. J@ye Williams@n, who was Isobel’s English teacher at Chiswick Community College, in west London, said: ‘She was into the kind of things that teenagers get into, but she got hooked on the worldwide web. She was part of the Myspace generation. She got caught and we are devastated.’
Not linking to the distasteful article - but people speaking to papers should keep a respectful silence.

the social fabric has been literally rent apart and communication with one's fellows is all but impossible. each day I see teenagers and pensioners fall to blows in the streets over their inability to smoothly navigate around one another in shop entrances and on sidewalks. they're little better than the packs of wolves that swoop in to chase them off of a fresh carcass, they are.

what happened? society used to be something you could point to and feel proud, like a boat. now you need to consult with three government clerks and a panel of so-called experts just to find out where the damn thing is, and by the time you get there it's likely closed early for Ramadan. unfathomable! they've literally gone beyond the pale!!!

what calls itself "society" today wouldn't have passed muster on the playground when I was growing up! we used to form up ranks and march all through the school grounds showing off our fathers' guns; in fact, we liberated a good deal of France that way before any of us even realized what was going on. nowadays, if teens line up at all, it's for the grand opening of some new sex shop or 'fusion' restaurant. no thank you!

everything worthy of the name "society" breathed its last sometime in the 1980s. they've kept it alive on a machine ever since, so that friends and relatives might still enjoy the simple pleasures of holding hands and stroking hair. but now they're going to unplug it, because someone thinks that money would be better spent funding sex-change operations for vicious stray mutts who are, they tell us, only lashing out at the world because they're "confused". well they're not the only ones!!!
