I get what your saying, but the point I take away is: I can research whatever I want, no matter how silly, right now. I can learn quantum physics. I can learn to play an instrument. I can research statistics on the latest election. And, of course, I can watch cat videos.

I think the only lesson here is to try and take the best parts from whatever your partake in, be it friendships, relationships or the internet.
Or maybe rather: apply the tool at hand to the best of your ability and with purpose only.
"But the internet is still magical. Sometimes you jump around and next thing you know you're up at 2 in the morning wondering what's the big deal about pizza shops and Wikileaks and Hillary Clinton or why this girl is smooshing her face into bread."
That's magical?! Sounds more like the epitome of a pathetic, consumerist life.
