great talk! I've noticed this change anecdotally around 2002. I used to be able to schedule and plan things, then, not so much. Everyone was too busy. It seemed to time right around when everyone started using cell phones..?
If someone uses shopping for flatware as an excuse to avoid friends, that person simply doesn't like their friends very much. I am busy just like everyone else, but if it's an event that I'm looking forward to, I will prioritize it. Some friends are just a chore to be around. You don't have to cut them out of your life, you just prioritize dental surgery over hanging out with them sometimes.
It's a class thing: Americans all come from servant origins and they still act like their ancestors did, act busy just in case the Lady, or the boss, are looking at them.

then how do u explain the penal colony descendants downunder, as they resisted servitude & were shipped off to exile...
the prisioners that resisted servitude and were sent downunder were settled under the guard of their gaolers @@divingduck9
That’s a really lame and gross exaggeration, and does that also include all the native Americans? 😏
So timely. How do I know? Ut was hard to make myself sit still long enough to hear all of this.
Listening to this while I send emails and do like 4 other tasks at the same time eep
UT? I meant, It. Sorry. Didn't have the time to edit.
DULF saves lives!
