Y'all forgot that newspapers and magazines used to exist, huh?

You know there's a difference. Nowadays, many people are glued to their phones because of addictive apps like TikTok and Instagram. I can't imagine that newspapers had the same effect.

I dunno, there are a lot of tv shows and movies from the pre-internet era that depict parents lost in their newspapers and totally oblivious to what their kids are doing.

Having grown up in this era, I can say with 100% certainty that this was the case.
