What would our generation be remembered about? post #1  quote:



really.
Is it about individualism?
How bout the music? pop rock? and emo? A revival of jazz music as played during the 1940s are appearing and are entertwined with rock now.

there's an revivival of modesty, sort of. The cleavage line is going up, the waists of the pants are going higher and the hem-lineof the shirt is becoming longer. skirts may be short but the thing IN now are the long skirts. Vintage and victorian styles are the current IN.

so, what's our generation like? What will it be coined as?

Our generation is the Information Generation. We'll be remembered for being born into a world with personal computers, teeny tiny cell phones, and email that allows us to make and keep contact with people on the other side of the world.

We'll also be the Harry Potter Generation. We've scarcely known a world without Hogwarts I think I read the first book in fourth grade.


The problem with identifying traits of a generation is that a generation lasts twenty years, so what may be for one tip of a generation may not be on the other tip

i think my generation will be remembered as sluts and trollops, and men who couldn't keep it in their pants - that women and men lie constantly before and after they are married - that racist people changed color - and that those with money never changed from those with money 1000 years ago .
they are still selfish stuck up people who care nothing about anyone but themselves and laugh at the struggler.
- will be remembered for the 1 out of every 7 between the ages of 18-25 have aids or some other std because they had no morals, self control, or respect for themselves.

anyways, that's what they say the statistic is.

Damn Dreamz!

I think every generation has sluts, trollops, and men that couldnt keep it in their pants.

Even my generation had those.

Id like to think that my generation wont be remembered for that....unfortunately, I dont really know what we would be remembered for.....except for maybe tight jeans and big hair...

Hmm...that kind of falls into the sluts and men not keeping it in their pants category huh?

well, I was just being honest. I think i'm the only guy who has any morals left - seriously.
I have yet to meet a girl who didn't try to sleep with me within the first couple weeks of dating.
its like - damn can't you wait? this chick stopped talking to me not long ago because i refused to sleep with her within the first 2 weeks of knowing her. glad i didn't - probably would have earned some weird unknown std.

I refuse to touch something before i know where its been.
if your walking in the park and see a half eaten hamburger on the ground, you don't just pick it up and eat it do you?
same thing
