Quote of the week : "Being famous on social networks is basically the same thing as being rich in Monopoly"

In the 21st century, the world as never been connected like it is now. It all started a few years ago with the birth of smartphones. Social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Skype started to spread and became rapidly omnipresent. BUT people have never been this uncommunicative, they are more anxious, stressed. YouTube is the place where people watch each other but yet no one is able to sustain the gaze of his neighbors bus.

The other day, Kevin was searching is way around town on his iPhone and he didn't see people crossing his path. But what if he had ask someone to help him, if he took the time too look around, he could have met THE one girl that would have changed is life forever, the one he would have probably married and had kids with. Still he stuck his head on his phone and probably missed the woman of is life.

Nowadays, we only live threw our screens. Whether at a gig taking photos and videos or in our intemacy, we can't help with staring at our phones and looking at every notification we get. At the restaurant with our date or trying to entertain our kids. People watch TV, play on their PC and answer to texts at the same time. Sometime they even watch a game or concert on their phone even if they're at the stadium, probably because it's in HD.

Frustrated, stressed and anxious. People in 2015 can't talk to each other anymore, they get angry for no reason. This shit is so lame. Kids don't even know how to write or speak properly but still they get every highscores on Candy Crush and ask their parents for their phones to stay entertained. Back in the days we used to read books and play with legos.

As we grew up in this situation, we realize that, even if we keep doing those things, it appears shocking when we take a step back and look at it.

Our opinion on the subject : One hates, one pratices and the last one doesn't give a fuck.
