Don't worry, Earth, they do that all the time. 40 years ago they'd be telling you to turn off the TV and grab a magazine instead. Hypocritical, ain't it?
Well, to be fair, at least you're actually reading when you have a magazine. Unless it's Playboy. Oh, don't give me that.

I don't think LSD's a part of pop culture
Wanna bet?

I hate the whole: Once you are in your 30s there should be more on your mind than video games. I can think about whatever I want!
Strictly speaking, there should be more on your mind than video games. And not just when you're in your 30s.

People aren't as awful as the internet makes them out to be.

Stop this.

Hoo boy, where do I start...

Back when I was in the 7th Grade, my Middle School banned Pokemon... Not just banned it; completely DISOWNED it. I had a wardrobe that 75% of it consisted of merc from said franchise... It pained me to have to give up all my Pokemon shirts. (I only remember of two shirts, though.)

But they didn't stop there... They banned video games, next... You couldn't even say MARIO without being sent to the Principal's Office! They even banned South Park, anime, Nicktoons, even MICKEY MOUSE got banned!

Just floating around...

Public School, actually...

Thankfully, in High School, things were a LOT more lenient.

I know this thread probably meant elsewise, but nowadays I'd say that modern culture demonizes reality television, as well as tween-based music, such as Bieber. =|

DB: why?

The people who think he's the worst-thing-ever-because-his-singing-sucks. In general if tween girls like it, the rest of the population kinda hates it. It's quite fascinating.
