I feel exactly like you in that every day, although in my case the reason is not technology related. I realized that when I noticed that in swimming I barely talk to people my own age but I talk to almost every adult/old person.
In my case the reason is probably the things we usually talk. With (most) adults you can talk serious things, but with people my age all I hear is which beer is better, how much money they spent on alcohol, which club is the best or how drunk they were or how many times they passed out last weekend (and I believe it's sad how some people say it as it's something funny and feeling proud of it, while I find it quite pathetic). I've even heard some saying they saw [insert name here] drunk driving, finding it not only funny but worth of admiration, like ''yeah [same name as before] is awesome''. And while everyone laughs I'm thinking what the fuck is wrong with teenagers today...

This. I have no interest in listening to that kind of stuff either. I'm more interested in learning about fashion and music and other stuff from the 60s/70s/80s and earlier generations.
It's really hard to get a girlfriend around my age as well (25) because I have no interest in clubs and parties and all that other Jersey Shore type of lifestyle crap where it's all about modern slang with words like "reem" and "sick" and they only care about their hair, their tattoos and their bodies, and have no personality whatsoever.. My interest is in older women at the age of 35-45, because that's what I connect with
It's hard being us, huh :L

But it's worth it most of times. I am proud of myself when I can look back and realize I became a better person and "earnt" so much just because I sticked to my own feelings and values.

Absolutely mate ^ it doesn't pay to be a sheep. Life is about choosing your own path.
