I understand each generation is steadily labeled worse by the old timers, but you have to wonder if things are actually getting much worse with the new generation of retards. I agree the bad apples are the same as they were 50 years ago, but today they get the most airtime on tv,twitter, facebook, youtube. Those are the people kids will emulate and that's the future generation.

I don't see it as each new generation being more degenerate at all. People of all ages are cruder than they were a decade a ago.

This thread may be chalked up to the "You know you're getting old when..." category.

That is all.

The OP will be harpin on "kids these days" and yelling at youngsters to get off his lawn in no time. Just like Red Dawn!

The media is the only thing that has changed, IMO..

Fly-over America is still as redneck as it has ever been. The tea party's popularity is testimony to that. ;)

Here is the genesis of this thread:

FelixDeIdiot searched had a weaker moment and searched for something naughty, say "schoolgirl pillowfight," on youtube. Then he got aroused, which scared him. So, instead of fapping or approaching the wifey, he got all morally self-righteous. Then he posted something stupid here.

When you're afraid to strike up a conversation with a female that seems to be 16 sitting next to you on a plane because you don't want to look like a creep.

Talking and Fapping at the same time is just awkward...
