I feel like the world is ending
Everything has gone down hill. The economy is bad, when we drive past parks they are empty and dull i don't see kids playing outside anymore, i wasn't a 90s kid but in the early 2000s me and my friend would hang out at her house all day and go to the lolly shop now the shop has closed down and last time i saw her she was on her iPhone 5. I saw a 7 year old talking on a mobile phone, everyone is obsessed with technology, even my dad is being brainwashed and uses the laptop 7+ hours per say and another friend of mine uses the computer 14 hours per day and spends $1344 a month online on eBay and Amazon. I got laughed at for wearing overalls as a teenager. At christmas time the magic spirit has gone and everyone is just like dead zombies, i remember i loved chistmas and my gifts were the best. None of this iPhone junk i got a board game and was happy with that.
Who else agrees?
I miss jumping in and out of puddles
Unplug the World.
Your are sat at a computer complaining about technology
The Spirit of childhood can never be retrieved i'm afraid you are just maturing that's all
No, the world is not ending. But it is changing markedly and rapidly. The arrival of modern technology has vastly increased the speed of communications and change, and you must adapt.
Our country has undergone other periods of rapid and even extreme change. After WW I, the US became an industrial, commercial and consumer society. People left the farms and flocked to very different lives working in cities. This generated great social change.
WW II also generated vast changes during and after the conflict. Now, the computer and modern communications are creating a great change. No use yearning for the past. Society, culture and history do not work that way. Barring a thermonuclear war or a huge asteroid strike, what you see around you will keep evolving, but mostly in unpredictable ways. Get used to it. Social change is always inevitable, but for us now, it is accelerating.
But what can you do? Modern technology is key to todays society. I loved the 80's but I can't go back so what is the point in moaning?
The Age is ending, but the World will continue.

- Updated iphone 4 to iOS7 ending phone calls? I can do everything on my phone from receiving messages and sending, but i can't make phone calls. It does not ring it only says "call ended". I can't receive calls either it sends the other person straight to my voicemail. What is going on? Any suggestions?

- My contract is ending soon and I plan to buy an iPhone 5s but? There are media rumours that iPhone 6 is coming out very soon. Do I really have to buy the latest model? What if there's an iPhone 5s and there's a big difference between the two models? I can wait but still I would like to have the iPhone (either) soon.
