I needed to be somewhere different. Maybe I needed to be someone different, too.

Jeff (to Troy): You just want someone who will yammer about Abed with you all day long because with me, every time you mention Abed, I make you give me five dollars. By the way, you owe me $300.

"I lived when simply waiting was a large part of ordinary life: when we waited, gathered around a crackling radio, to hear the infinitely far-away voice of the king of England… I live now when we fuss if our computer can’t bring us everything we want instantly. We deny time.
We don’t want to do anything with it, we want to erase it, deny that it passes. What is time in cyberspace? And if you deny time you deny space. After all, it’s a continuum—which separates us.
So we talk on a cell phone to people in Indiana while jogging on the beach without seeing the beach, and gather on social media into huge separation-denying disembodied groups while ignoring the people around us.
I find this virtual existence weird, and as a way of life, absurd. This could be because I am eighty-four years old. It could also be because it is weird, an absurd way to live."
~ Ursula K. LeGuin, Interview by Heather Davis :: [Poetic Outlaws]
