I don't know why but this has recently become a problem. As I watch people go about their everyday lives, i am amazed that they get through the day. Everyone looks like they are on the verge of either breaking down into tears, or whipping out a 12 Gage and doing some Herd-thinning...

Upon my return to defaultia, society does seem a bit more frenzied, a bit more callous, and a lot more panic driven. I could be wrong, but I believe you are right.
