The Rebel

I was reading through Kn's rant here. After I'd added my response, which was:

Aichu wrote:You know, one of my favorite t-shirt slogans is "I'm Unique...just like everyone else".

Just putting that out there.

There's no such thing as weird people in our culture. Unless you're trying hard enough, in which case we can all just assume you're looking for attention. Just look at our school system- we're taught to be individuals. Is there something about you that's a little off? Sure. But everyone has that. It's just a little more prominent in some people than others.

I got thinking a little more about a trend in the way our generation thinks. I've noticed that we often rebel against society because certain people treat us differently or put us down for who we are.

Exibit A

This may sound harsh, but I have only one thing to say: "Suck it up."

Okay, backtrack and let me explain.

What we're doing by complaining because we're 'unique' is useless. Yes, we're all unique, no two people are the same! Also, Kns stated

Another example, reality shows: Normal people suck at those. Lets watch Bob raise his family of 3 kids with a loving wife! Watch Bob pay his mortgage! Watch Bob eat a healthy and balanced breakfast! Trust me, the only way you would get me to watch that is if Bob ends up getting eaten by dwarfed gazzelles. Now that is entertainment.

Well, what's so bad if we happen to live normal lives? To be a parent and take care of one's family is a noble persuit.

What I'm really trying to say is our generation has become a Rebel without a cause. The focal point of our rebellion is how we're not excepted and how everyone should be different. Hey, there'll always be people who won't except us. We may be insulted and even shunned, but there's no reason why we should band together and shout 'injustice' over our own injuries.

If you really want to change the way people think, show the world you care- there are children dying of aids and dehydration and africa, people on the streets in our own towns with no place to live, and abused women in our cities with no place to go. Just because we're teenagers doesn't mean we cannot do our part to help.

Now that's a cause worth rebelling for.

(btw, I'm in no way pointing a finger at the people who started the above listed threads. I'm just using them as an example to make my point)

This is too deep for bloodly's poor, poor abused mind to think about.

What happened to the days where you could just pop in and make some stupid comment in a random thread and it would be fine?

I think Aichu is right, we rebal because we want people to see us as unique individuals, but everyone knows we are, so there realy is no point to our rebeling.

What I'm saying is, Bloody, I've seen people talk about how they've been insulted by people because they do something a little differently and how we should rebel against society because of our hurt feeling, but people hardly ever talk about real issues that affect the very lives of millions, such as poverty, slavery, and disease.

Yes, I understand... But... I dunno... It gives me a wierd vibe. It could just be I'm too stupid to understand

O_O Chu's rebelling against the rebelling?

I feel like Bloodly xDD

But the aids parts and whatnot, if all the rich peeps(Actors, Rappers, etc) If they used some of their money to help instead of buying new cars and big houses with 600 rooms, that'd help :D

*duct tapes your mouth shut*

Tch, you, I'm not calling for a rebellion at all. After all, what would we rebel against? I'm just pointing something out that's been bothering me.

There's nothing wrong if you happen to be blessed financially, Bloody. It's your attitude and how you spend your money that matters ^_^

I almost regretted it after wards, but I got a shiny certificate, so I was happy :D

wow, aichu, you really have been hanging out with ama too much, eh?

anyways, I see where you're coming from. Oddly enough, it makes sense to me. Not saying i agree, or disagree, I just understand.
