Journal Deja's Journal: The Dickwad theory

Recently, it seems, with the progressive use of the internet, society (and social contact) have evaporated to awkward stares on the transit system. Most people today often even avoid eye contact.
I've never really been an outgoing person, but I'm finding that in a group of twenty possibly thirty passerbys on the bus I'm slowly becoming the most extroverted person out there.
Perhaps this can be blamed on the anonymoty that we can generally hide in on the internet. Where we an say whatever we want and it doesn't effect us one bit. Or, perhaps it's the unveiling of the anonymous user. Where one can see your face and know exactly who this high and mighty arse that's calling them some horrid name really is. For whatever the reason people today are dead and oblivious, if not fearful of making contact with someone in real life before (pardon he pun) Second Life. Perhaps if we all took the time to think outside of ourselves for a few moments thee world wouldn't be so fucked up, but in truth no one is that selfless.
