While I am not a "youngun" (I am 42), I feel like I am the youngest person I know besides my wife that does not have or has never had instagram :P I literally have only used FB or Google Circles (for a very, very brief time) in terms of social media. And I am a geeky engineering type! Maybe the things that have transpired in my life have caused it, but I am actually swinging more towards starting my own consulting business, working mostly out of my home, and moving 50 miles out of town somewhere with a big piece of land, mostly wooded, with a mediocre sized house and a giant shop! Society is turning me into a wannabe hermit!
I hear ya on the overload lately
I think a few things I see that don't necessarily agree with due to MY AGE are the kids that seem to be looking for attention basically or approval from people that they may have never met
seems odd to me butt again thats just me.I don't think my other half could do the hermit thing butt can I come with you two?
J / K 
Yeah my mouth goes off in here more than most feel is necessary so I probably have no place to speak
I just think some get a lil overboard posting
's of stuff they do.Oh & i joined Insta for that LG up there that was irritated by the adds
more an artsy dealio 
although I do share SOME not EVERY family event etc....

I'm only a year older and am in a similar headspace. I feel like more and more I'm retreating from technology (except s2ki obviously :P ). I love where I live (30 acres that border on a river with world class salmon fishing...not that I fish ) and would be verrrrrrrrrrrry hard pressed to move back into town.
