Whats Wrong With Modern Teenagers?

[Blown Cone]

Hahaha I think I see what you're saying... for example I couldn't help but groan in disgust one day between classes when i saw a girl wearing a brokencyde shirt. If you've ever heard of them, you'd understand why I expressed my dislike. If not, here's a link, and prepare to hate our generation even more:
just this whole generation of materialistic obsession accompanied with the downfall of beautiful (and/or coherent) music makes me wonder why I even try anymore -_-

Another instance: rap music, two different songs by the same *ahem* 'artist', one was titled 'Let's all get drunk tonight', the other 'Let's all get high tonight'. Guess what lyrics the entire song was composed of.
Well I suppose I should keep playing try and do my part of the recovery then...

(and let's be brutally honest for a moment, none of the guys in that video get "freaky" as often as they imply.)

*sees video*
*goes to throw up*
Ahhhh... that's better.

Unfortunately the musical choices here (Vancouver) are often slim to none, and it's mostly stuff like that.
Luckily for me, I found an obscure little pub that jams classic rock!

I'm 21 and this just made me feel old as hell.

For real? People listen to this? And not just when they're insanely high or trying to impress slutty girls who prefer "indy kids"?

1) She WAS flirting. You should have made a comment something like what your fingers could do to her!
2) My three teenage kids are the best!
3) GET OFF MY LAWN!
4) When I was your age...................

That is called one uping on you. No matter what you are doing they want to be one up on you. Get use to it. Life is full of this.

Basically.

Here`s kind of a sad/disturbing story, IMHO.

My friend`s older sister(who`s in here early 30`s) and her husband are actually proud that their son learned how to read by playing video games... VIDEO GAMES!!

Anyone else see something really wrong with that?

 

[caeman]

Depends. How old is the kid at the time? If he was 2, then I would call that impressive.

 

[lousybassplayer]

Modern Parents. Agreed. As a young parent of a young child with one on the way, I dread to think what his generation will be like. Scary thought, the ****heads that compose my generation are having kids! I gag when I see what other parents my age consider normal and how thye profess they will raise their kids. Now all through time every new parent has had some terrible ideas on how to raise kids and they all changed with time and experience, but this generation won't change, because they are far to delusional and self important to let life experience interfere with their ideas of what they should have and do. Between an entitlement mentality and raw ingonarnce, they will certainly churn out droves of moronic children the likes of which we have never seen.

Sorry, I am a bitter person sometimes.

Playing (and thus probably liking) Metallica is not common sense.

Seriously.

Seriously.

Should've mastered her puppets.

Makes you wonder how long this topic has been discussed. Probably centuries

More like Millennia

Here's two fairly well-known quotes from the time of the Ancient Greeks. Variously attributed to Socrates (born approximately 470 B.C.) or his best-known student, Plato (born 427 B.C.)

The children now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority, they show disrespect to their elders.... They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and are tyrants over their teachers.

-----------------------------------------------------------

The young people of today think of nothing but themselves. They have no reverence for parents or old age. They are impatient of all restraint. They talk as if they alone knew everything and what passes for wisdom with us is foolishness with them. As for girls, they are forward, immodest and unwomanly in speech, behaviour and dress.

Sound familiar?

There's a one-upper in every band, every class, every office, every shop...every place. And they always suck.
