Is our civilization declining?[views:1901][posts:14]________________________________________ [Nov 8,2008 6:31pm - Conservationist ""] Seems everything gets less functional year after year. Doesn't really bother me, as I work around them pretty easily, but it makes me wonder: Did it feel the same way in Rome?

| _____________________________________ [Nov 8,2008 6:40pm - ThirdKnuckle ""] I walked out of a Dunkin Donuts today because the 2 girls behind the counter started arguing with each other about how to make the drink I had ordered for my wife. The argument got to the point where they were actually swearing at each other, until one of them just walked away mumbling curses. The other one had no clue as to how to make the coffee drink, and went out back to get someone else's help. That's when I walked out. So yes, it's declining. |
