a classical greek or gook would flip their shit at seeing a modern grocery store though.

this age of abundance has really only been firmly established the last 50 years or so in white countries. maybe 10 years for mudskins.

we can chose our own in modern grocery stores

was in a grocer in Italy and the owner asked you what you wanted then went about getting it for you, so you could not chose your own.

self choice is the potus of modern consumerism

I´m guessing he´s refering to a market, not a supermarket, and South America, not Europe. But it´s still not true, of course - you can choose within the limited selection they have, and at the very least, there are multiple butchers, multiple cheese sellers, multiple produce stalls etc.

here's what's kind of weird to me - going out in the woods or into a cave that hasn't been visited since almost 40 years ago, and finding some trash, and noting that the product wrappers or cans actually have barcodes on them.

then remembering that wide adoption of such things began way back in the 70's, and we have been increasingly technologized since then.

the phrase "fifty years ago" has been used since i was a little kid to denote an earlier de-technologized era, but in a few years, that won't be sufficient anymore.

50 years ago was 1965, and IBM was selling some computers back then that were a shitload better than what they had been selling just a few years before.

50 years ago was IBM's first actual "desktop" computer:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_1130

50 years ago, the american murder rate had already started to accelerate from its late-50's lows.

if a cat who was lost 9000 miles from home hopped a train, jumped off and wandered through the streets of India, climbed mountains in Nepal to get home; was taken in and revered by a guru and his followers then escaped political turmoil in the back of a FedEx truck to North Africa, and was adopted into a 9-star resort in Fez for 3 months before he realizes the hippies couple camping outside the resort may take him back to his home, well, id buy that book in a heart beat
