Sometimes, I feel old.
This in itself is kind of hilarious as I’m only 21. I volunteer with SIFE at my university and we develop programs that help the community and have various projects. For the most part, it’s usually a fun time. They sent me to California in the middle of October which was pretty fandangledly rad.
A few days ago, one of the people sent me a message asking for help on one of the projects I help run and I agreed because it was a reason for me not to go to one of my math classes which is pretty early and horrible.
The project was essentially teaching 6th graders how to budget and we turned it into a fun game where they’re given money and have to pay bills and such. I was in charge of getting them to buy the crap they don’t need, such as candy.Mwhahaha.
Anyway, we finished the game and they all were let out for recess and I was thinking, what the hell do kids these days do for recess? We walked passed the gym and they had loud, bass-y techno blasting and were having some sort of a dance shin-dig. I then noticed half of the kids texting with iPhones.
My initial thought:
Yeah. I didn’t think. My brain was stuck in this image
When I was in sixth grade, I didn’t own a phone and we played TV initials.
TV initials is where five or six people stand against a wall and one person is about ten feet away and you give one initial of a TV show or a band and the first person to run up and guess it (you have to touch their hand first, though!). We didn’t have dance parties. Hell, we weren’t allowed to dance with other people
I also realize I’m almost double the age of some popstars that have more money than me, most which are in middle school and still have curfews. I know the majority of you just thought of that atrocity of a song by Rebecca Black.
Yeah, no. It’s not Friday, or Fryday.
This song is about fucking jeans.
Seriously.
What
The
Fuck.
The whole video is her singing about some celebrity having similar jeans, and she sounds like t-pain, but like twelve years old. She doesn’t know what to wear. Clothes would be a great idea, lady.
Majority of the video, she’s wearing a skirt. Does she have a community pair of jeans?
She should really wait til she’s eighteen before she lets people make use of her community jeans.
A, B, C
1, 2, 3
That girl wore her jeans like me
I bet she’s mad
‘cuz I look fat (?)
Ha-ha-ha
Jack my swag?!
Englightening.
HOW ELSE DO YOU WEAR YOUR JEANS? ON YOUR FACE?! THIS ISN’T EVEN ENGLISH. I WANT MY 4:01 MINUTES OF MY LIFE BACK. NAO.
Hokay. I’m done. I’m never reproducing, ever.
Hope I made you laugh!
Cheers.
when I was younger we played tig or hide and seek, not stood around listening to music and texting with phones that they shouldn't even own yet. I wish I had an iphone.
ReplyDeleteMy town doesn't even have service for iPhone's yet through my phone company. Plus, for fuck sakes they're like 500 bucks! That's how much I pay for rent! Sixth graders don't work. jkhfgfdkghkfg
ReplyDeleteI don't work either so I can't really complain about them, one day you might get coverage for an iphone then there would be more of a reason to have one. I would rather work for my stuff though then just get it giving to me like they will.
ReplyDeleteKids have more these days Laura. Just like we had more than our parents, and our parents had more than their parents etc.....
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot of spoiled shits though.
