Manners and Technology!

So today I said "good morning" to a girl in my class. Clearly she heard me and looked up but she did not respond. I thought it was quite rude to be honest! But I didn't say anything but I did smack my teeth one good loud time! I mean, really why happened to a nice "good morning" or "hello" whatever the case may be. Times are so different now. No one speaks to each other like they use to. Its a technology world now. When people walk by they have their heads down and they are indulged in there phone or they are walking by talking to someone on the phone. Every now and then you can get a smile out of someone but trust me that's rare! People meet their future spouses online now. There is sexing and texting, so many different phones to chose from. It's exciting and all but where is the real interaction? I hope there does not come a day where people lose the connection to each other because of technology! People talk on their cell phones all the time now. In the store lines, in the car, even in public bathrooms! Listen your phone call can wait. You don't have to pick it up EVERY TIME it rings! Remember people are calling you, you answer at your own terms. Don't get in a wreck trying to answer your phone or return a text! 
I'M JUST SAYING!!

  1. I'm with you. It's just like you hold a door open for someone to be nice, and they can't even say thank you....makes me wanna scream out your welcome. UGH! Well if it makes you feel better i smile at everyone, say hello, and thank you. It's just like why not. You never know what that smile, simple hi or thank you might mean to that person. It's truly sad that things have become that way.
