Yes, that is what the current highschool/college generation basicaly is now. A MYSPACE generation. Why? Well, I'll tell you:
1) Everyone knows everything everyone else knows about politics. Everyone's only oppinion about Bush is that he is a horrible president. But when someone made a statement like that to me, I asked for them to back it up, and they had NOTHING. People gossip about all the events they hear going on in the world based off other peoples ideas on MySpace.
2) Typing ethics are TERRIBLE. People use short phrases like "Omg U r such a hoty!", "lawlz, dat wuz funne" etc... Which makes me wonder... How on Earth do people who spend nearly half their free time on the computer pick up poor typing skills to THAT degree? People seriousely attempt to type the way they talk. Which freaks me out sometimes, because of the new word "Lawls"... which is trying to say the word "lol"....
3) It's cool to be stupid. Kids aren't paying attention in school. Oh, their parents think they are doing alright, but a C-grade student is basicaly a nice way to say below average. (Yes, I'm slightly biast towards C Students, because I work my ass off while they do bare minimum...)
4) The phrases "I found it on MySpace" "I spend all my time on MySpace" "Do you have a MySpace" etc... are comming up in increasing numbers. People talk more and more about MySpace every month. "MySpace-this" "MySpace- that" I'M SICK OF IT!
People need to wake up to how amazingly horrible MySpace is. It is worse than TELEVISION! And yet, people love it. Some people actually use it as a dating service, which has ended up horrifying in the past. (cannibals..) Some use it as a way to spread dirty rumors, as well as cause fights. (I've seen several fights start over something somebody said on MySpace...)
Ok, you now know basicaly how I feel about the "MySpace Generation", but I wanna know how you feel about it! Do you think it's as bad as I think it is? Or am I just ranting on in these late hours of the night like a fool?
