"A Reunion with Boredom"

In Charles Simic article "A Reunion with Boredom" he talks about how boring it would be with electrics. He says "Being temporarily unable to use the technology we've grown dependent on to inform ourselves about the rest of the world, communicate with other, and pass time, is a reminder of our alarming dependence on them" (2011). How would it be with no television, no, phones, no computers and no Facebook! What would teens do without electrics?

 I'm sure people more then half of the world had grown dependent on electricity if the power turned off right now I'm sure half of use wouldn't know how to survive this winter. There would be no heat, no running water, no television, and no Internet.  Even though people aren't worried about electricity when they should be. Their all worried about social media and internet turning off because everybody hates slow internet. I'm sure people become bored by his/her's phone.  I don't am always distracted from all the electrics around me. There are too many things we can do with our phones and tablets that can easily get distracted by Facebook, Instagram or shopping sites etc.
