The Generation of Idiots?


 


Having coffee with friends.
 

 
 A day at the beach.
 


 
Cheering on your team.


  
A dinner with friends.



 
An intimate date.



 
A conversation with your friend.



  
A visit to the museum



Enjoying the sights



I'm not sure who put this little photo essay together, but I found it rather telling.  Nearly 80 years ago T. S. Eliot wrote about the modern condition of being "distracted from distractions by distractions."  With the Smart Phone, one almost feels a need to add another layer to this, like "distracted from distracting distractions by distractions."
