    This week, I planned a 4p game night, got several people to respond affirmatively on it. No one showed up.

    Some people are just so brain-empty they can’t associate words to meaning. They just respond in expectation, assuming they should say “Yeah, I’ll be there!” and then perform no follow up with travel planning or calendar entries. That is how dumb this generation is.

      Flaky people have always been flaky it’s not a generational thing.

      You were planning the event. Did you perform any follow up?

        People were flaky before phones, don’t make this a generational thing.

          I’m not, I was less flaky before I got a phone.

          Young folks are the ones eschewing smartphones, not boomers

            I’m the opposite. Having easy access to calendar reminders has made me way less flaky

              Ah interesting. For me being able to actually reach people at any time has made me much more prone to cancelling plans.

                I guess that shows the danger of generalizations based on a small sample size.

                  Yeah… I suppose anything can be the cause of anything to some person. Phones have been a bane for people like me, but obviously I’m not the only type of person.
