Can you imagine time traveling from 1990 to 2020? Seeing every single person, even children, glued to a screen in their hand. It’d feel freaky and dystopian.

I remember a whole lot of people glued to their Walkmans, books, newspapers, and when at home TVs. Screens are different (everything is different) but not so much that it would be shocking, I think.
You think if you went back to 1990 you'd see all the kids engrossed in their walkmans, books and newspapers like zombies?
