Mom Explains to Son What Life Was Like Before the Internet in a Hilarious Texting Exchange
Do you remember life without the World Wide Web? It certainly wasn't like 2019.
Some people forget just how strange life used to be before the internet took over everything. For one mom, that reality check came in the form of a text exchange with her millennial son, who could not quite wrap his head around a world without instant search, constant connection, or a phone glued to the wall.
She tried to explain what everyday life looked like before the web, and he responded with the kind of confusion only someone who grew up online could deliver. The conversation quickly turned into a funny reminder that a lot has changed in just a couple of decades.
And once he started asking questions, the whole thing got even better.
It starts with a question....

That is one very modern way to look at work.
