I just saw something hilarious (to me, at least) and depressing on facebook. It's a brief discussion between a a young teenage girl (around15-16? Not entirely sure. She's a relative) and a mate of hers. Behold:
Girl 1: "had a dream our country got bombed it was genuinly really really really horrible... and that was just a dream...I really hope it never happens!"
we are half way to the point when new enlistees in the military will have been born after the attacks on 9/11. scary thought isnt it?

I for one am glad that I either missed out on the generation of stupidty and idiocy by a year or so, or that I missed all this when I was younger.
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

That's why if I show up on 40K night at my FLGS and see a load of teens and tweenies, I just turn right around without saying a word, because I don't want to hear how ignorant they are.
I think that too though when I hear my niece and her friends go on about something. The sheer amount of holy gak stupid makes my head hurt, and I dont claim to be an intelligent person, so thats gotta be bad
Apparently rap/hip hop is really big again, only it isn't rap and hip hop , rhyming over a beat is called grime core? nerd rage? fat sally? or something of that Ilk. It hasn't been heard before, really.

ah for the days when MTV and VH1 actually played music worth listening to and not an endless parade of 'reality' shows.

So, like, I was making out with this guy, and he totally, like, tried to feel me up?!? I was all like, "No way" and I left. It was, like, really scary.

Expect my posts to have a bazillion edits. I miss out letters, words, sometimes even entire sentences in my points and posts.

It's wicked gay.
I actually got 3 hours of detention for slapping a kid for saying "That kid is so fething gay." Since when is gay a derogatory statement? My friend is gay, and I feel for him every time someone walks by him at schools, and laughs. (He's pretty open)
And sex is rampant at 14. I wonder how the gods have allowed no-one to get preggers.

Just to make sure you understand, I am 13 and agree with everything that has been said. Apart from the few who can use their brain, young people in Western Australia have either succumbed to 1337 speak or the equivalent of permanent Tourette's sydrome (swearing uncontrollably for no reason). Those or they are just plain stupid.
As I will no doubt waffle on, I will describe an event that illustrates my point as basically as possible.
My train pulls up at a station and no one gets off. Guy about my age runs up to the door and presses the button to open it. Not only does he not get off, but he makes a young couple (about 15/16), who were leaning on, the door stagger to keep their balance. This is where it gets funny;
Boyfriend: "What the f*ck do you think you're doing?"
Girlfriend: "I was leaning on that you pr*ck!"
Kid: "Heh" *starts smiling*
Boyfriend: "Why the f*ck you smiling c*nt? Some kind of slow?"
Grilfriend: "You should bash him"
Boyfriend: "I will if the c*nt doesn't wipe that f*cking smile off his f*cking face"
*couple move down carriage*
Kid: "LOL, OMG that was so funny"
*me staring at him*
See, now even I'm not sure if that makes sense. We are a stuffed up generation. With exceptions.

For a 13 year old, I must say, you seem remarkably literate. I've seen your posts and I honestly thought you were significantly older. With regard to the exchange that you mention above, it's sadly not limited to "them kids these days". I work with day traders in NY. They're some of the foulest mouthed people I've ever dealt with next to sailors. There's nothing quite like calling someone up, genuinely TRYING to help them, and after they find out who you are, and what you're trying to do, getting a "What the f' are you calling me about that for? I don't know anything about it!" and a slam down of the receiver.
Worst part is that it's contagious. I have a hard time stopping myself from launching into a tirade sometimes.
The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all
