Dumb and predictable. Where these cookie cutter cids [sic?] believe their behavior singles them out from the school of fish - rather it is a sign of modern colloquial conformity and of a narrow cultural exposure.

I think you've nailed my criteria on the head.

If I said that an out of control sense of consumerism with regard to media (your "narrowing"), ongoing cultural, intellectual, and ethical degeneration, and growing aliteracy might have something to do with this, would I sound the least bit crazy?

Crazy? You? Nah.

A little pingy in the thread, but certainly not crazy.
