What is something that is popular now that annoys you?

Today's namby-pamby generation crying about the realities of life.

I don't want to go to the old scenario of "I walked 3 miles in the snow to school", but when I was single with a 9-5 job I took the bus for a 45 min. ride to the El (Chicago term for elevated train) and rode that for about 20 minutes to work. I still had time for friends and going out on dates. Time for family was Sunday. This girl in the video is stressed and just needs to get used to a routine, and she will eventually.

After I got married I got up at 5:30 am, drove to the train station, rode the train for an hour, caught a bus for another 15 minute ride to work. Got off at 5:00, ran to the bus, ran to the train before the last one left, got home, picked up my daughter from the babysitter and cooked dinner. I admit, I was so tired that sometimes I cried when I was cleaning up the kitchen after dinner, but...you do what you have to.

This upcoming generation will have to quit acting so entitled and "grow a set" (you know what I mean). But I think there's still a lot of kids out there with a good work ethic.

I couldn't have said it better, Caroln!

My sentiment to a T!

People who text and drive or even drive and use cell at all, it just makes me nuts.

There should be a snitch line for this!

I've never been one for tattletaling, but when it comes to the seriousness of being behind the wheel of an automobile and rubbing the responsibility of such in the face of the law, more needs to be done to quash such, including taking away people's driving privileges and issuing crippling fines.

Maybe they can come up with some new fangled technology that disables cell phones except for 911 unless your car is in Park mode. That may cause problems in certain situations though. I don't have the answer to this problem.

that would be zillions of pathetic people looking for 5 minutes of fame on the backs of the Kartrashians ..

It's an incredible thing that a bunch of people with no talents whatsoever could become so rich and world famous ....for absolutely nothing..

It's called "being famous for being famous"......sort of like "which came first, the chicken or the egg"?
