    In the 90s what else were people doing if they weren’t hanging out? If I had no kids it’s perfectly plausible I could meet at the bar every day after work. How is a coffee shop any different? Just for clarity plenty of people drink coffee at night.

      It’s true. Try hanging out somewhere outside your house with no modern technology for two hours.

      First you’ll realize how long time feels without a smartphone or instant entertainment.

      The second thing you’ll realize is how hard it is to keep track of time without a wristwatch.

      People socialized more in person because there wasn’t much else to do and it was the best way to do so.

          Please understand an entire generation was gaslit into believing anyone trying to talk to you in public wanted to drug you, kidnap you, and/or rape you. 😂

            Or infect you. Don’t forget your hand sanitizer and mask. And keep your distance. Literally everything is crawling with toxic germs.
