This is mostly a rant. If I've been unfair, my apologies.
I'm what you'd call gen x or gen y. I realize we're all individuals, and that much of what we see ma be an exaggeration or wholly innacurate, but its so pervasive.
What don't I like?
The morally relativistic, que sara attitude.
I know libertarians and liberals might get on my case for some examples, I may even agree with some criticisms, and I'm not a good example of fine living (though, I am in regret over somethings), so I admit there's hypocrisy.
Each item has it's own degree of appropriate use.
Drnking at young ages.
Going to parties when you have other responsibilities.
Not concerning oneself with the affects their drug use could have.
Expecting things.
Pulling dangerous stunts.
Thinking being a player is a good thing.
Not showing proper courtesy no matter what the situation.
A general disregard for tradition.
And may some others.
An example person.
17 year old guy from Utah.
Has 1 girfriend who he cheats on.
Skateboards in illegal areas, risking injury and the need for medical care. Possibly stealing gurneys, beds and ambulences from people that deserve it.
Smokes crack and wastes his time being stoned, and thus his families invesment in him.
Listens to loud music, uncaring bout the harm it does to himself and others.
Is drunk several times a month.
The shame of it is that I believe some people would argue that "it's my life."
Aside from the cost and danger, and please forgive me if I sound even more arrogant, I am simply embarrased to be associated with my generation, and of other generations that support it.
