In my last post I was talking about how parents have made some mistakes in teaching their kids things that are not useful. I'll elaborate on this for a little bit, then I have an entirely new subject. So here goes.
Going back to my experience at Dave and Busters (with the young girl whipping her card through the games with ease), it goes to show how much things have changed in the past decade. When I was that age, I know I wouldn't have had a clue how to use the power card throughout the place. I still have trouble with my personal credit card at the gas pump... just kidding. But learning that 'art' at such a young age has to have some long term effect on the girl cause when she gets to be my age she will probably be capable of wielding four or five credit cards with brutal effiency... a credit card company's dream. Also with the young kid I saw at Target, he will probably be hooked on playing for another 15-20 years or so, which will probably deter from his homework and social skills. Society has changed so much (understatement of the world) over the years, as the influx of tv, internet, and video games provides the only social interaction for kids of all ages. It's sad.
Okay, well hopefully my thoughts are still coherent cause I'm starting to get a little droopy eyed. The next topic is losers who must have nothing better to do than to whine and complain on SignOnSanDiego.com, the official website of the Union-Tribune. Awhile back they introduced a "comments" section at the end of every article. Any article dealing with something as affirmative action, racial profiling, sexual discrimination and so on will induce literally tens of dozens of comments. An overwhelming majority of the people on there must be bored to say the same thing everytime something political comes up, unfortunately most of them are Liberals so the comments lack any kind of common sense and humor. These "Macho" types get to the point of wanting a physical confrontation just to prove the legitimacy of their incoherent point. But it certainly gives me some entertainment. I spend more time reading the comments than I do reading the article. I think at some point if I am bored out of my mind, I'd like to get a fake screen name and stir stuff up a bit. We'll see, but I wouldn't dare admit it. ;)
Stupid people in general really bug me. A lot. Of course, I'm sure to some people too I'm an absolute baffoon too, so life is weird circle all the way around. I think I might actually "publish" this post before midnight, which is pretty awesome. Haha.
Well hopefully i'll be able to come up with a post soon, cause I don't like to keep my devoted readers waiting. haha.. in my dreams.
Peace
