im not that old. Im 26. A.K.A too old to be young and to young to be old.
But "in my days" the activity of putting yrslf out there to meeting new people (yep, balls hangin and all) was called "breaking the ice".
Why was it called that way? Cause people, since times imemorial, never wanted to "lose their cool" or (perceived coolness if you so wish) by being the first to iniciate conversation, so you broke that chain yrslf and iniciated shit.
Now people are atomized, disenfranchised, scared balls bcs of fearmongering media and also scared shitless of losing any perceived social advantage (be it real or not, bcs deep down they dont wanna feel more worthless than they already feel) so they "stay to themselves" until death cause anything else seems pie in the sky.
Also cowardice and lethargy was positively selected by evolution, so most people are that way naturally.
The result is this soyciety we live in, where people are too snobish and prudish to even make friends.
