i guess that's the outcome of liberalism. but the other options weren't great either.

A girl was drugged and possibly raped in Toronto, and the guys who did it taped / took pictures of the entire thing and circulated it around the school. Not one student complained or called the cops, and many claim that they believed the photos to be fake.
Discuss.

(Mar 8 07, 07:34)I remember this as being essentially the plot of one of the movies that supposedly defined my generation (the Xers) - "Rivers Edge":

You know, dead girl, teenagers don't give a shit, keep it to themselves and away from authorities, etc.
(I suppose you can see the more contemporary "Brick" for a similar plot)
Basically all the Boomer critics used it to define my generation as a bunch of apathetic losers, etc..at the time - you know along with "grunge music" and whatever else..
Same shit here...I think it's just teenagers being stupid due to developmental factors and the people in their 40's forgetting what complete apathetic morons they were themselves at the time.
All I got to say is fuck these baby boomers..can't wait til they all die off..they fucked my generation and are rasing a bunch of narcisstic kids who expect the world to be handed to them for free, just like they were..
Oh fuck, now you got me ranting...my GenX roots are showing..
(Puts on Soundgarden's Supermega OK cd and relives college rebellion years...)

haha, I kind of agree with you, TheBlueOne.
Damn, once they're all gone, all the jobs will be OURS!!! It's perfect timing for after our graduation.

and by "OURS", I mean Gen Y.

welcome to the machine. "they" just let you have a unique name so you won't suspect what's going on.
- TheBlueOne0
Jaline, I'm waiting for your generation to get some sense of itself - so far you're still defined by what you aren't, not be what you are, which has to come from within. I think once you guys get past your vapid collective Paris Hilton worshipping phase (and I said "collective", not personal) you guys might be alright..
Anyone else here ever read this badboy:

Nice link, Witt.
Justin, I'm doing quite alright with keeping up with what's going on in reality, around the world. Staying in school certainly helps, and although I watch tons of television I'm usually in the grey area of most things.
