Thought & Quote of the Day

Kids these days are pampered little whiners, spoiled brats with entitlement mentality. You can't go onto Youtube or Twitter without seeing some kid bitching about how their parents suck, or 'Bob iz meen I dun lick his'. They don't know the first thing about how much life sucks - but that doesn't stop them.

It's evident in every area, but the worst is how they act when going into work. They expect the corner office within a month of working there, $50 an hour, and a month of vacation days. It just isn't viable. And then they go protest at a 99% rally because the 1% isn't giving them all everything they want. Here's news for you - YOU are in the top 1%. Let's talk about this mathematically: the US makes up about 4% of the world's population, and we're one of the most prosperous nations. Because of this, almost everyone in the US is in the top 90% of the world. 90% of the world doesn't have a cell phone, internet and a computer to access it with, or a house with air conditioning. Give your Iphone away and we'll talk about how neglected you are. You aren't entitled to a cellphone.

Seriously - now we have burger flippers at McDonald's who want $15 to take orders with a shitty attitude. Here's news for you: flipping burgers is supposed to be a crappy starting level job that you moved out of once you were no longer a teen. You aren't supposed to raise a family on a McDonald's salary! Burgers shouldn't be $10 to pay for your B.S. attitude problems.

Quote of the day:

The optimist sees a light at the end of the tunnel,

the realist sees a train entering the tunnel,

the pessimist sees a train speeding at him, hell for leather,

and the machinist sees three idiots sitting on the rail track.

"The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; the pessimist fears this is true."

— James Branch Cabell, The Silver Stallion.

For those wondering, I'm the pessimist.
