I am astounded at the number of kids and adults who would rather watch someone else have fun (TV) than create their own by getting out of the house and having an adventure.

On their headstone will they have engraved in Old Gothic:

“I wish I had watched more cable...”?

Apparently there’s a show MTV where two girls have separate boyfriends but also date each other.

Subsequently, there’s been a ramp-up in schoolgirls “going out with” each other. It’s pack mentality replacing values.

I came up with a beauty defining the smartphone generation:

Never has a device kept one in contact with the world while simultaneously making them unaware of their surroundings.

You don’t have to pay attention to this article. I haven’t seen a single tweet about it.

To rephrase Friedrich Nietzsche: "Most people are not even shallow".

Of course, in our present Age of Unreason, "ignorance is strength" (as Orwell famously said in 1984).

St. John Cassian included self-esteem among the Eight Grievous Vices.
