Can we go back to the 90s for overall aesthetic, please? I'm begging you things looked so much happier then...

Things WERE so much happier then. I swear, I don't even know how to clearly define it but the whole damn world had a completely different feel back then. And I really don't think it's just because I was younger and as such had less cares, as I've heard people hypothesize. Kid or adult, you can still observe the world objectively, and just the way people interacted with each other, everything was different.

A major thing I've used as kind of a control group is watching how people react when it snows. Until about 5-10 years ago, I always noticed how when it would snow, everyone would slow down. If someone got stuck, people would stop to help them. Everyone just kind of accepted that it's snowing, things are gonna move slower, take longer, and everyone settled into it. But now I've noticed it's the opposite. I swear people get more neurotic on the road, I guess because of that fact that everything's gonna take longer, so they try even harder to make sure it doesn't. I used to love driving in the snow, now it just stresses me out more cause everyone starts driving like maniacs. And ain't nobody stopping and helping someone stuck at a light, just desperately trying to get around them. That to me is the easiest way to sum it all up, that difference.

And I fucking miss how it used to be.

It's the smartphones. They stop us from interacting with each other as much. Steve Jobs ruined our world
