Stupid is as stupid does.

After reading the article and watching that video in class it really got me thinking about our actual generation and how people view us. I have to agree and I have to disagree with both sides. As I was reading the article from the LA times there was one quote that stuck out to me and it goes as follows; This ceaseless pipeline of peer-to-peer activity is worrisome, he argues, not only because it crowds out the more serious stuff but also because it strengthens what he calls the pull of immaturity.When I read this quote all I could think of was how true it was. When he talks about the internet is a  "pull of immaturity" I have to agree with him. I admit I have done this and I bet all of you sometime have also. There have been times when I have been upset with someone or a group of people and rather than going up and saying that I was upset with them to their face, it was easier to write a facebook status about it. Now I know hindsight 20/20, and looking back it is really immature and I try to stay away from doing it. I hate how in the video, Mark was basically saying that how everyone under 30 is apart of the dumbest generation. This is untrue. It is like someone said in class, you're going to think the people below you are worse than you. Its just nature and how we have always acted. Our generation is just smarter in different ways then the generations before us. For example, the other day in the Theater class, I sat there in agony as I watched him taking the long way around to get to a youtube video. The things that each generation had to learn about it very different. They learned things to help better their lives and we are doing the same.
I acutally just found this video like a week ago and its of this old couple trying to take a picture of themselves but they actually took a video. Watch it the whole way, its hilarious. You can find it in my link section.
