ARE YOU ON STEEMIT? YOU ARE A LOSER!

lResearch from University of Pittsburgh suggested that people frequenting social media may be lonely.Researchers studied 1,787 adults
Age range 19 to 32 of studied subjects
11 social media sites: Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Google Plus, Snapchat, Reddit, Tumblr, Vine and LinkedIn.( dammit , no steemit)
FINDINGS: People who visited these sites more than 58 times /week were three times more likely to feel loneliness than those who visited these sites less than nine times per week.58/7= 8.28 per day
If awake 16 hours per day then per hour visit is about 0.5.
So if you check out social media once every 2 hours, you are a sad lonely pathetic, no good about to jump off the ledge moron!!!What uttter nonsense. First of all loneliness is a feeling of varying magnitudes. It is undefinable beyond being a feeling. Using it as measure against hard numbers and stats when what is measured is unmeasurable even between subjects is really weird. Your loneliness is not the same as my loneliness. It means different things to us.
Social media is a great thing if you are feeling lonely whatever you mean by it. and Please visit it more than 58 times a week. You will interact with people , make friends and enemies alike, you will find things to do, you will join groups and your loneliness feelings may actually change.Social media brings people together from far away places. Imagine the use of phone some decades ago when it was used to actually make phone calls. How one waited for the phone call from someone living far away. A scheduled time on a particular day once a week and the phone rings. That is how people lived in times past. That was a heck of a lot more loneliness.Society has evolved to a different lifestyle. The meaning of loneliness has changed. People have moved from small towns into more congested urban living environments. People have far greater interactions with other people than they used to. Yes we are not gathering every evening for a family dinner. Yes people are not getting married or having children. Even though we have more human interaction, the depth of interaction is lacking. Society has made a choice to go in a direction of material and other pursuits. Society chooses to enjoy the pleasures of the new lifestyle while foregoing other pleasures. Some may feel forced into what we may call a rat race but some would feel forced no matter what the general direction of society.Travel is easier and more frequent. You get to see most of the world if you wanted. The radius of friends has widened to the extremes of the planet. What you may not find is the one good friend that you can be really close to. So what? Changes in society must always occur while human progress searches for improvements.People now don't live with or near their parents often. We may live in different states because of jobs and obligations. I have precious little time by the end of the day to spend with my loved ones. Yet our lives are more fulfilling in most ways.STEEM ON FOLKS. DONT PAY ATTENTION TO NONSENSE
