Teenagers !

[supergrandma]

While pseudo-gangsters are fucked, the whole of teenage society is even more fucked. In response to Vosak's mention of the "Sexii" incident, I can proudly admit that I am one of the few of my age group that wouldn't fall out of my chair laughing at this. Moreover, another problem among teens these days is extraneous physical contact. I've seen incidents where people slap, hit, and kick each other because they think it's "cool" and "fun". Now pardon me, but if that's cool, I will consider myself "uncool".

 

A typical teenage application of sentence structure and vocabulary: "I'm gonna like, go to the mall and like see a movie, you know, and stuff like that. Can I like, borrow five dollars, you know?"

 

Lord have mercy on my sad, sorry generation!

This thread has taken on a very refreshing tone, for that I thank you all.

[supergrandma]

This thread is very relevant.

[Outlaw2747]

I did my anti-teen rants a few threads back. All I can say is I have no faith in "The youth of America" whether it is my generation and this upcoming one. They will both send this world into a spiraling hell. And quite frankly, it is sad. I have reason to believe the human mind is in a severe state of atrophy.

Indeed it is sad. If only things were as they once were...

[Richard Owl Mirror]

I wonder if it has anything to do with what this guy is talking about ?

Guess I'll say it again.

 

I FUCKING HATE TEENAGERS. Why do I hate them?

 

1. They're ungreatful

2. They're disrespectful

3. They're often compulsive consumers

4. They're fucking greedy

5. They're overly dramatic

[Richard Owl Mirror]

y're overly dramatic

And I'll add one of my own.

 

You hate teenagers because they, as a representative group, misrepresent your cultural outlook on your age group.

 

Am I right?

[Komrade Vostok Hazard]

Ummm, No

 

I stated every reason why I hated them in the list above

[SlIgHtLyOpInIoNaTeD]

I'm with builder here in saying as a representative group, misrepresent your cultural outlook on your age group.

 

Not all teenagers are terrible, but YEAH! as a group they are the most wretched things to walk the planet at this point in time

 

Everything now a days is about disrespect and drugs

 

I know too many teens who are strung out on whatever(u name it they do it)

 

They don't realize that there is life after high school

 

Some learn the hard way.. I had this guy I know whose brother was one of those I'll do whatever I want folks and he disrespected his parents, disrespected everyone around him who wasn't "one of his boys". He got so hard up into drugs that he almost died at 20 yrs old and went into a coma for 3 weeks. Now he just sits around and drools because he can't do much else

 

He is going through rehabilitation now and is slowly learning to walk again..

 

Most of the shit that kids get into is because they want to be grown. I don't know if there is any one way to change it without the teens giving a little themselves.

 

This is almost a hopeless cause because they don't care to change..

 

The items listed above plus the parents letting their kids run free on the streets at 12 years old with a nicer plan on their cell phone than I can afford.. Teenagers really piss me off!!

[builder]

The teen scene here in the land of OZ is quite the separatist's clique.

[tizz]

When were teenages NOT the most wretched group? Anyone remember "Rebel without a cause"? If figures considering the position teens are in. THey are trapped between childhood and adulthood. Rites of passage that would tell them they have becum adults (and afford them the respect of other adults) have lonf since disapeared fom modern societies. Their bodies are in chaos as they physically become adults, they are pushed toward independance yet not allowed it at the same time. They are in constant searched of what to believe in (breaking away from what they have been forced to believe) They see things around them in chaos yet are, for all practicle purposes helpless to change them. I mean I get annoyed with their arragance and complete disrespect for others (funny that that disrespect is what keeps it mutual) but i remember, with a certian acidic flavor in teh back of my mouth, what it felt like to be there (which is why I laugh at it more). It's hard to hate what you once were yourself.

[Elmoish]

I'm telling you, they are a waste of valuable space !

Now, I do not have children of my own but, I recently merged myself with my girlfriends family.

She has two sons, only one I have a problem understanding.

I'm hopeful that time will help but, every overture I've made so far has been either rebuffed or simply cast to the side.

Any of you have teenagers ? I'll take any suggestions I can get

 

I think you should have a nice talk with your gf and tell her you love her, care about her kids, but that because the 1 kid has such a problem showing you kindness or respect that you think you should go back to just dating.

 

Then move out and date her for another 3 years. Or leave the situation completely.

 

Wait for the jerk-teen to graduate HS and move out...THEN MOVE IN.

 

Oh, and by the way, I have a feeling that jerk-teen will NOT move out after HS...and his Mom, your gf will keep coddling him. If so...do not move in again. Start looking for a different gf.

 

I don't want to be negative, but I've seen this many times. A single mother or a divorced mother lets the first born male turn into a monster out of guilt and NEVER makes them grow up. Yes, you will hear excuses. He's just going to stay through college! Of course, probably too dumb for that...then it will be: He's just going to stay until he gets a job...Nope, too lazy to keep one. Do you think you are the only one he treats with disrespect? I doubt it. How are his grades? Does he help with the house? No? This will only get worse with time. I would jump ship if I were you. If you love her, move out and date her.

 

I think you deserve more than this set up.

Wow, I'm unable to tell you've apparently changed so much in the 2 years that you became a non-teenager

 

[Komrade Vostok Hazard]

Ahh, yes another person who thinks I'm a Teen.

 

 

Guess I should act like one then

I don't think you should have to set up your life to revolve around this kid's desires. As long as you respect him he'll wake up eventually. If he doesnt, oh well. He'll just have to grow up and move out. He is probably just having problems adjusting, or maybe he is jealous. Either way, he is going to take it out on you becasue he probably feels as though you're moving in on his property. either he is just a pure dick, or he is taking out his troubles on you. he's got to learn that life doesnt always work out the way you want it to, so you just have to suck it up. who knows, you may be his motivation to move out, go to school, get a job, and become a responsible adult.

I don't think you're a teen. I can read well enough to know that it says "21" as your age.

By the way, the majority of teens don't actually talk like that.

 

It's just my personal view that you fit the classification of what you consider a moronic teenager. Nothing wrong with that, though. We all grow out of it

 

Oh, and did you ever think that maybe other people thought you were a teen because you act like it? Believe it or not, just because you disagree with what someone says about you, doesn't mean they pull everything from their arse.

-Sobs- I'm fifteen and if I ever talked, or typed like that I would kill myself.

The system has failed when someone thinks it's cool, or has no other way of typing.
