Kids these days....

Ok, so I consider myself young. Not teenager young, late 20's young (and when I turn 29 in the not so distant future I will stop counting). I'm very slowly finishing my degree in Graphic Design (woo hoo 2 yr degree has taken me 4 yrs). I'm now down to the crappy classes that really don't have anything to do with Graphic Design. Take for example my Environmental Biology class. I guess I can incorporate my graphics knowledge into my term papers or something.

Anyway that's not really the point. I guess my point is kids these days don't know how to A. Listen and 2. Think. There's a girl in my class and I say girl because I really don't think she's older than 17 (and that's a stretch). She must own stock in the color pink. First week of class I thought oh how cute she's color coordinated- pink purse, pink shirt, pink shoes, pink fingernails and a pink bow in her hair. Second week of class I thought how tragic her name must be Pepto Bismol. Once again she was dressed in a long sleeved pink shirt, a pink tank under that, pink tinted sunglasses and even pink stitching on her jeans. Also she's blond. I have absolutely nothing against blonds, I am even blond and have a blond child. I love blonds, but this girl, she is the reason people make fun of blonds.

So we're in class and the professor is asking about what theories we know about, string, evolution etc. Then she moves onto Laws. Stick with me people it's about to get good. The prof. says "You know laws, like, there was this guy sitting under a tree and an apple fell and hit him on the head". Before anybody else could answer Pepto pipes up "Johnny Appleseed!". I'm not lying. Oh my gawd. What the hell is wrong with youth today that they don't know about Isaac Newton and his law of GRAVITY. That's right people Johnny Appleseed is the one who discovered gravity by (and I'm making a wild guess) eating apples and realizing that all the seeds he spits out fall to the ground, thus he comes to the conclusion that there is gravity.

I'm tempted to find out what school she went to, to learn "Appleseed's Law of Gravity" so I can be sure not to enroll my child there. There's also a theory of "Adapt or Die" I've got money on her not adapting.
