Tech-boom.

I feel like I'm definitely more anti-technology than most people.. actually maybe you could say technology-delayed. I mean I know there are those people that don't use like anything and are super old-fashioned but.. it takes me awhile. I joined Facebook a lot later than people.. I don't want to upgrade to a smart phone.. I dislike the idea of reading books on an electrical device, etc. but I will give it to the tech-world, it is efficient and amazing. So, after this whole tech-boom and all this high-technology blah blah blah, I feel like the word creep, creepy, creeper has been thrown out a lot more. People who you would have never known about become entertainment through viral household youtube videos.. you can keep in touch with someone you met on a trip while you were in another state, etc. And along with that comes this whole... stalking, creeper shenanigans.
So, I can't think of the other movie.. but I watched Sixteen Candles today.. and I feel like those 80's movies idea of romance is so different. The way that guys approach girls and pursue romance would be considered so creepy in today's standards. They just come up to you and ask you on a date, just show up at your house, (okay who knows if this is really realistic to 80's dating styles, I only have the movies to go off of) and so onnn. I guess I don't really know where I'm going with this.. but it was on my mind.. I definitely still think in my head that I wish everything wasn't so globalized, you only had the means of knowing people around your area, etc. it seems less.. complicated.
