  1. time, the place in which i am now. A modern world, one with technology, rights, freedoms for most people. A more advanced race with knowledge about many things that were previously unknown.

  3. There is nothing new under the sun. What does modern mean? I guess modern is “now”. Wherever we are in time. That is modern. And, because we are the actors in modern, we think modern is good.

  4. The opened the gift like a little kid, tearing away at the wrapping paper, shaking it off her fingers as the tape got stuck, slowing down her progress into the huge box. Opening the large cardboard flaps, she stared in surprise at the modern-looking contraption within.

  5. a love or a joke to be modern is to be out of date, the second you enter the category within that same second it is over and someone has surpassed the expectations of the era

  6. Modern furniture. It keeps changing and depends on your age. Arts and Crafts was considered very modern at one time and now its considered antique. I never feel very modern.

  10. it was different. New material, new cut, my mother was looking at my new swetshirt and horror was up on her face.
    MAAAA! It’s modern!

  11. Modern Love. Texting without any form of verbal communication. Is it like the “old days” of love letters sealed in wax? Something to ponder…

  12. in modern times it is acceptable for anyone to just go to the beach and pretend like there is no one around them, play music as loud as they want, throw beer cans wherever they please, and simply act like an overall jackass. It used to be where families would go to the beach and spend time with each other.

  13. Everything today is modern, it just seems that there is really nothing classic anymore, everything has been modernized. They knock down old architectural buildings to make room for all these upscale ones that totally defeat the purpose of the classic

  14. What the hell?
    This is the same word as yesterday.
    Disappointment.
    Irony, too:
    The topic is and is not modern.

  17. buildings, cold and hard. Clean and sterile. No character. No jutting stone edges from uneven bricks, no variation in colour from the natural stone. Metal, sleek and shiny. It looks neat, but has no “feel” to it. Nothing to make it individual or interesting.

  18. Modern day life is actually quite complicated. I think. Well, as we’ve been told not to think, I’m just randomly typing out things. Modern phone, modern television. They just show how much the society has progressed, and I’m sure that much things will further improve due to modern day life.

  19. In this modern world, people forget about nature. They forget about the simplicity of waling through the woods, hearing the birds chirp and the wind dance through the leaves. They seem to remember their gadgets, their cars, and their selves. Nature is calling, and it wants us to remember it.

  20. Joshua was unimpressed with the modern world. He hid from social networking sites for fear that his old friends would discover his whereabouts and drag him kicking and screaming back to the pit.

  21. Blocks of design, clean curves, uncluttered and antiseptically white. The house is perfectly modern. But not a house I’d want to LIVE in…

  22. He had what could be called a modern apartment. In that there were no signs that the apartment was habitated by an actual person. There were no framed photos. No stains on the couch, hidden by a throw pillow. No books cracked open on the arm of a couch.

  23. Dont think, just write, the screen says.
    I beg to differ.
    In modern times, we no longer write.
    we type.
    maybe this is why i could not finish my script on time, because i used to the modern world, i type.

  24. What have we gained in this modern world, and what have we lost? Cmmunication is more rampant, yet we are less connected, meaningfully, than ever before. You have people attending a concert and tweeting about the experience, instead of experiencing the full thing, and exploring the memory of it afterwards.

  25. The modern hat he was wearing surprised her. She hadn’t thought that would be what he was like, his advert hadn’t given that impression at all. She felt old fashioned now in her brown long skirt, she should have worn jeans!

  26. In modern times there seems to be an underlying sense of helplessness, as people pass by on the streets carelessly. You see it all the time, homelessness and staving are visible, yet people do nothing, I do nothing. I, and many like me, run by in our folly and think nothing of an empty stomach or a life without home. Its our societies greatest flaw, in theerican dream there is no place for a mass outreach to the homeless.

  27. What is modern anymore? Inventions come at such a pace it’s hard to know what the future is, or when the past was. Fifty years ago, the computer was the size of a house and the phone was like a plastic hammer screwed to the wall. We thought we’d be living on the Moon by now, and in each of our McMansions, staring at the video screens, maybe we are.

  28. Modern love is tormenting.
    Modern society is raw.
    Modern women are lovely.
    So are you.

  31. modern life is busy and filled with stuff to do. hardly any time to just BE. we don’t have a choice about it. must keep up. would be nice to have the time to put window boxes in and be able to tend to them.

  32. Times are modern now,
    But you don’t act that way.
    Words that you say,
    Are from the stone age.
    Problem is –
    You appear from Now
    But you are always stuck in Then.

  33. contemporary and classic ar the same time, which is odd really because I sure that there word has been around since the 1960s, which is no longer modern, but the period we call modern. And then in architecture, the modernists were the 1930s which would have seemed such a modern and forward thinking time after the hardship of the depression. Everything old is new again. and again.

  34. I dislike technology. Call me a neoLuddite but hey, it’s killing my brain. Typing and writing notwithstanding, I don’t like it because it gives too much instant gratification, like TV. I find myself lazy after TV and the internet take over my day.

  36. Like furniture, like literature, like architecture. Modern meaning from today, and yet, people use it to talk about a period in the past. We’re beyond modern now. We’re postmodern. After Modern. Have we redefined the word modern? Or are we running out of ways to make ourselves feel like we’re doing something new?

  37. modern:

    and all that was in her brain fled.

    Modern, yes, why had she not thought of the word. Yes this was indeed a “modern” piece of art. Why, of course, she mused, leaning her hands against the glass in an attempt to shorten the distance betwene she and that beautiful Giacometti.

  38. the word modern means and refers to something contemporary and belonging or pertaining to the recent phenonmena. It has reference in an indirect sense to things which muster wide acceptability in the society of the present.

  39. e rule by fantabulous drooling mirabolic doctores and magisters so much ignorance and the pride and presumtion that fit it like a glove that goes in hand with the short sighted brutality of conviction,where can we go but over the cliff maybe to flight maybe oblivion but how can we close the heart to the pain all around
