Free Choice/Sci-fi: Love Minus Eighty 1
Scary thing is, I read a preview of this and I kind of see us heading in this direction, where social media overshadows relationships and daily life. Friends who say they didn't do their work or were up until 3 in the morning on Facebook, Twitter or Skype. My YouTube-obsessed sister who constantly quotes the people whose channels she follows and babbles for a half hour about her favorite web shows and exceedingly stupid and/or violent episodes of said YouTube shows. Desmond the Moon Bear and Carl the Llama in particular drive me up the wall. Breaking up with your boyfriend to get viewers actually doesn't look too extreme from where we are now, and I have to say, that worries me a little bit. About society, not my sister. Although she's a little scary too, come to think of it.
