"Me,me,me" Generation

[Prowler]

People ALWAYS think their generation is the best one.

Was it this? It was this, wasn't it?



But for real, I think a ton of posts in here already got this topic covered. People have always been awful, social media and worldwide culture propagated by the Internet means we're far more easily exposed to it.

^ this. I was going to write something but Mexichrist has managed to summarise most of what I was going to write. Part of the reason I am not on Facebook, sometimes it seems so much of a willy waving contest about who's doing the best, oh look where I've been, who's got the most "friends"... bleurgh.

I'm sorry, I got distracted by the, "Please Pay Attention To ME" tone of the original post. What was the point again?

I bet the topic creator thought everyone was gonna be like "wow! You are absolutely right! We would never have noticed if it weren't for you! Time to right our wrongs!"

[Papenbrook]

I'm sorry everyone. I just noticed that there is more selfishness and entitlement more than ever now. Maybe its just the internet. It's easier to write mean comments and get away with it. I am sorry if I annoyed you all.

That's actually a good point. The internet does allow a lot of anonymous a-holes to be more a-holey. After all, just look at half the threads on this forum. Or the comments section of any news article.

We are all a-holes. Some of us just like to watch the world burn. Or, y'know, forum flame up.

Popcorn, anyone?

Now this is twerking.

If you're gonna do it, AT LEAST include pyrotechnics.

Spoiler:

There's claims it was a hoax, but whatever. lol

[Amaranthus]

That was pretty hot.

It comes later in the video, my man. C'mon, when it comes to booty, I know what's what.

You got me, homie, you got me.

I don't think you have anything to apologize about. You started a thread to start an open discussion about the topic at hand and people started crawling down your throat for it.

[Leo656]

Not so much. It was more like a, "I realize grass is green. Anyone agree?" kind of topic, and people expressed their disinterest.

Anyway, your quip applies to you as well, bud. You're constantly preaching this fat-acceptance sh*t like we & the world should adhere to your beliefs. So congrats on being part of the problem.



Again, you're the best.

Well said, Powder. I couldn't agree more about PK being part of the problem. As others have said, humans suck and always will. Everyone's selfish up to a point and it's never going to change. The best thing you can do is just try to be better than that instead of acting self-entitled.

Agreed. There's no reason to apologize for opening a discussion and expressing your feelings. As for those that are quick to express negativity, well, the internet's just like that sometimes. Best to not take it personally.

[BubblyShell22]

But the problem is, PK does this and acts like he/she is a victim every time. He/she has even gone so far as to do this in the Nickelodeon TMNT section and talked about fat shaming. So, PK is part of the problem.
