"The halibut died from starvation "

I guess the fish were so used to being looked after and given stuff that it didnt know how to even find food to feed itself when released in the wild.

What are your predictions for the entitled youth of today when they graduate college?

Why is it many people never apply analogies or quotes to themselves? Why always someone else? "the youth of today..." gimme a break generations have been saying that for years. In my circumstance I think it means I could learn more about the things i depend so strongly on, and have such little knowledge(car)

The same could be said about small businesses that try to compete with large corporations.

One can only hope.

It's not just the youth, though...a LOT of people have some stupid sense of entitlement. It's all of America.

Almost every College/University student learns all the skills they need to survive in the "Real World". "Want fries with that", "Proceed to the next window", "Welcome to 'X'" are versatile skills!

Being a student, I'm kind of ashamed at the stereotype that is seemingly reinforced by my generation. Granted, I feel it's justified and I'm moreso ashamed at those who feel entitled to "x" than to the labellers.

BTW, read the last line of my sig.

Please don't lump all members of the class of 2006 into one group. This member of the class of 2006 is sitting in the home he just bought.

Some of us, mabye even most of us are pretty damn helpless and pathetic, but certainly not all of us.
