For you, me, and many on this board perhaps, but for the majority of our population (especially females in my observation), it is a conduit to self-absorption, obsession, intolerance, lack of discipline, addiction, anxiety, and depression.
To find a parallel, it's a crisis in the making quite similar in scope to the ambivalence and ignorance associated with smoking throughout most of the 20th century, except the ramifications will be far greater.
