The Society of Today Cannot Sit Still, by MrAcam1515

We constantly must be fidgeting with the next gadget, whether that be a cell phone or Ipad, to make us feel as if we are not "bored." This mass media floods the generations' youth, so much so in fact, that I am inclined to state that the true imagination has been lost.
