What was the point of writing this though? You have an extremely anomalous use of and relationship to smartphones that makes you immune to the problems other people have with them. Yet those problems are widespread, and the ways you've avoided them aren't really accessible or acceptable to most of the people experiencing them.
You don't come right out and say it but there's definitely a virtuousness angle here. If other people were just good in the ways you are good, they wouldn't have these problems. They have in some sense the ability to avoid these consequences, and so they are choosing to have them. They deserve them, in a sense. Right?
- hammyhavoc 4y agoImagine berating someone for their inability to relate. Perhaps the poster has undiagnosed autism? It's surprisingly common in adults. The point of posting it was clearly attempting to understand/relate.
- giraffe_lady 4y agoIt wasn't at all clear to me that that was the attempt being made. But then, I do have diagnosed autism so hey.
