BONUS: The Year We Stopped Talking To Each Other
Remember the days when you'd set the VCR? Or have to be home Sunday nights at 6:30pm to catch the once-a-week Disney movie? Or have to sit next to people on the couch and watch the same show, on the one screen? HA. 2015 was a game-changer for the way we watch TV. A glut of streaming services entered Australia, feeding us quality TV programming, when we wanted it and how we wanted it. The result? A rennaisance of quality programming that we devoured. Families that can spend a night all enjoying something different. But what's the major downside? You literally cannot talk to anyone for fear of spoilers.

Name One Thing You're Good At
Social media is rife with #humblebrags, so why are women crap at talking themselves up in real life? Do you forget things easily? We can now blame "Google brain" for that.

Well, they're all hobbies, right? Mia Freedman, Jamila Rizvi and Monique Bowley compare leisure activities and ask: has the internet eaten them all? And shared hobbies with your partner are great but what if you don't want to do their boring things? Would you ban phones at your wedding?
