I am starting to get a lot clearer picture of what is truly going on here and I am starting to see that with the roommates that I am having. I have great expectations of having these "spoon feed" kids that I always wanted but actually I am starting to realize that this is a fantasy and not a reality. I am starting to have a clearer picture of what is going on in general.
I usually get people that I don't care for and I am starting to get cynical - why do I get these people. What is with people these days? I started in the high school and I have this view - what is with people these days, especially with the youth these days. They are plain weird and they need to shape up.
I am getting the duds but this time I am not going to let them stop me - this time I am going to stand up. I am getting sick and tired of these people. I am sick and tired of these lazy people that just sit around and play video games and have no life - they should get a life. I am getting sick and tired of these whiny people. Of course, I get whiny but it most likely I have been too "nice" for a long time, and I need to start getting a lot less nice and start standing up for what is right and what I believe in instead of letting them push me around. I had a thing about these people ever since high school - they needed to get a good butt chewing. Of course, there is a high culture of these people and I seem to get these people and I know they are not cool.
The internet has taken over our lives and I had to admit, I have been spending a lot more time in the cyber world and not in the real world trying to find myself. The cyber world has been an escape; a crutch but the cyber world is now changing. I seen that the culture ever since I started college I have been having the same people and I am not remotely near these people. It must be some sort of emo-geeky culture that I don't seem to care for. Of course, some nerd things are not bad - we do have sort of a dork in us. Comic books are cool; superheroes are cool; they are a great escape and a lot of people do enjoy these things. Great entertainment; better than 90% of all entertainment. But some of these stuff is plain weird - I don't care for Harry Potter; I don't care for Twilight. The Hunger Games - eh, it is okay. Lord of the Rings - eh. This must be the culture that was common during the 90s and 2000s, or it could be a subculture, or it could be the culture of the 21st century.
There might be a time of innocence and maybe some of these alternative stereotypes such as nerd, gamer, emo, scene is a predictor of future trends. The scene kid - I have a feeling that sounds like a emerging fad of what is going to be cool in the '10s and '20s. The 1950s culture was very innocent and a new modern culture might be emerging from the scene kid/nerd that will be the fads in the '20s. I might be old - this might be the contemporary emerging trends that are popular in the 21st century. The time of innocence is starting to emerging and I should look into the fads of the dork - that will be the cool in the next 10 or 20 years. This was going on in the 1930s - the 1930s was just a continuation of the culture that was common since about 1900. You had the vauldeville culture, which was something that was edgy and alternative around the 1900s - that culture has become mainstream by the 1920s and '30s. Jazz music was alternative in the 1910s and then it eventually became what you do by the 1930s. But there was an alternative scene during the 1950s called the beatnik that led to the hippie, which was the standard of the '60s and '70s, and during the '70s, the roots of the '80s and '90s were taking place. During the '90s and '2000s, there must be something that is in the underground; the emerging that is going to be the norm of the '10s and the '20s.
Hip-hop is on the way out and there must be an emerging scene take place - I should explore the emerging scene. I think what was cool for scene kids in the 2000s will be the fads in the '20s. Something is emerging.
