    It's all media. Those who lived the rock and roll lifestyle and destroyed their lives and careers with drugs are shining examples of why not to live like that--but nobody is taking a lesson from it.

    Pretty much. With knowledge at our fingertips in this digital age, people refuse to utilize it for the better.

    I go out and walk around in a hooded top, jeans and some trainers... I feel the need to smile and keep my eyes wide to convince people I'm not a thug.

    Not everyone in the age range is a rotten delinquent.

    And nor do they fit into either category of "society" nor "chav". I refuse to be associated with either.

    No problem, there is bound to be decent individuals in every generation, despite, it is not only todays generation that are generally stupid, it is all, especially the generation that are the parents of today's generation.

    Todays generation i not worse than before, it is just that the majority of humans have always been douchebags.

    I feel as if today's youth settles for mediocrity as if they are okay and content with their lives, but then complain at others who are successful. It is almost as if striving to be the best is taboo.

    Well, if you are the best in your respective field, then you are doing better than a lot of people, which is apparently unfair and creates inequality... so you should all strive to be adequate and nothing more, so that everyone has equal rights and access.

    It isn't that people think being successful is a bad thing, it's that there is too big a gap between economic classes. Even people who are successful in their respective fields may not make very good money. That's the issue.

    This is unfortunately true. There's some careers out there that don't require much experience or talent, but pay far more than more critically important careers that require significant investments of time, effort, and money to even start in.

    That's just dumb. I never played Ocarina of Time. Wanna know why? I don't like Legend of Zelda.

    But I like this logic.

    You know when people say "If your not part of the solution then you're part of the problem. Well not knowing those above bands is a problem. YAY logic, right?

    My 8 year old cousin loves pokemon games and he doesn't even know about the first two generations. Whenever i bring them up he keeps saying they're fake because of how crappy they look and they don't have all pokemon in them.

    <_<

    I think I'm the only 13-year-old who actually has played a Nintendo 64 and an SNES and many other retro consoles.... most other teenagers would just call them **** and throw them out.

    I know that feeling. One of the biggest regrets of my life was selling my SNES when I was younger.

    On topic, I still blame parents. They're either too strict, so their kids will feel sorry for their kids and be more relaxed, or they're too relaxed, so theirkids become scumbags. I can't believe that I'm saying this, but I'm glad that I have strict parents. I'd hate to see how I'd turn out if they weren't strict.
