@dalehileman,
Dale, when you post a thread online, about the food you just ate, incorporating your age into said thread - It is simply demograped.
Thus - Old fella, with little, or no, interaction with other humans resigns himself to describing his most recent digestive experience with virtual strangers on an online (residential-home) forum - because the rest of the world has already laid him to rest.
Everyone needs to belong somewhere, Dale.
That's ok, but does the virtual world prevent or sustain such.
If there were no internet, for example, would you make more of an attempt to interact with real folk?
"If's n buts" Count for nought, I know. Yet kids, families, entire communities sit glued to one screen or another - Rather than........whatever.
Matters not - All the best Dale.
