I forgot who posted it, but due to genetic selection, stupid/thick people don't use condoms and reproduce faster, and so passing the stupid/thick gene. So the world, due to cushy comforts and the PS3/Xbox/Wii are getting more stupid. One day, we will not be able to make things anymore due to our terminal stupidity.

I don't think people are genetically stupid, that's more a matter of environment. But the teenage pregnancy epidemic sure worries me. I'm not against the idea of having kids, hell as a joke me and my best friend Amelia once picked out names for our potential future kids to kill a boring afternoon. But that's a bridge I'll cross when I'm ready. Financially and emotionally stable enough to support a child. That's how parenthood should be. A calculated decision based on the quality of life you'd be able to provide the child. Not the product of a poor upbringing, a bottle of vodka and a dirty alleyway. Imagine the sort of things the new generation will hear as the grow up.

'Mummy, who's my daddy?'

'Fucked if I know.'

And so on.

@Blood Fetish: I made my claim that people are becoming less intelligent based on several conversations I had with my Great Grandmother on the subject and how she felt things had changed over the course of he 93 years. I then added some of my own observations to it and came to a conclusion. BTW I wish I could ask here what she thinks of things now as she passed away in 1999.

PS Just so I don't get what did you have a commune with the dead joke, no. The conversations happened back in the late 1990's.

I think given what I just saw on the news it's safe to say that common sense is no more. There are kids in Brighton who are being trained how to ride a scooter. I'd have thought it'd be pretty self explanatory. They have to be taught how to use the brakes, how to turn, etc. The parents are getting behind it because they're afraid of the kids hurting themselves when they fall down. I'm no expert but given that a scooter is only about 2 inches off the ground, the force of impact if you fell off wouldn't be all that different to just plain falling over, even if you were travelling at speed. Besides, kids need to learn these things for themselves.

I guess what we're lacking is balance. Parents these days seem to be either insanely over protective, or they're the teenage mothers who don't give a shit if the baby's crying because Loose Women's on.

How to you measure Intelligence/Thickness?

Who's smarter, a guy who crafts beautiful, intricate furniture out of wood or a physicist working in an area of the String Theory?

They're both smart. Especially in comparison to the bibbling masses sat with their fingers up their arse watching mind numbing tv while their kids are out getting either pregnant or arrested.

People are dumbing down, and it only gets worse as time passes. Them minds only continue to narrow.

These days, no one tends to even think anymore.
It's all about:
A list of experiences around me, some are personal, some are just there.
Sex : They're already pregnant by Jr. High. Males who think they're so high and might and so pro by having sex. You think that makes you a man? That's the common way to think, that's their common thought process. I even heard the 'tard say something about getting laid. Aside not needing to know, it's annoying. We don't need more children from idiots who can't even handle them properly. You shouldn't need help from mommy to take care of your kid, as in, she has to financially put out.

Drugs : This is mostly self explanitory. People smoking pot, getting high, and then doing retarded things. Smoking pages out of religious books, for example. The fact that...that guy was a lawyer, made me die inside. How could someone like that be a lawyer? He's also just some self-proclaimed atheist, not a real one.
Then there are other drugs, such as anti-depressants. Faking your own happiness will only hurt you, it's best to face your problems and sort out your emotions.

Dumbed down shows : MapleStory gained an anime, a show meant for kids, yet (mostly American) teens couldn't even comprehend the show. And then everything on TV nowadays is based on sex, and high school, and all that crap.
Where the hell are all the good values at now? Even Family Guy is usually all about sex or drugs now. And I find that funny when you hear the opening song.
People are entertained by the 'worst' things ever...I can't comprehend how. For example, the Jersey Shores, I don't get how people could watch that. Same with Gossip Girls, and Entourage, and...the like.
We could use shows that aren't blatant generic crap, like Bones, or House. I can't think of anything else here.

Overuse of swearing : Learn to use other f'ing words.

Bad English : is it really -that- hard to say WHY and not Y?! No freaking excuses. Easier? Shorter? I can understand if it fits because of stuff like twitter's 140 limit, but most things ain't twitter. That's only one of more than a hundred. I can find many examples over the net. Even foreign people make effort. They make effort more than those who are supposedly 'native' to the English language. How is that possible?

Horrid parenting : Parents aren't even paying attention to their kids anymore. I've seen so many immature...bluntly put...dumbasses on the net, and even at school. Is it -that- hard to keep them from doing stuff? You don't have time? What kind of lame excuse is that? Parent, my ass.

The solution isn't yelling or hitting, or even ignoring.
Is it really -that- hard? You -did- make the child after all. Then it goes up for adoption, and someone else would 'clean up' the mess. I'm not saying orphans and the like are bad, I'm just saying that some of them come from people who are idiots. Because of that, someone else ends up cleaning up the mess. There are others with circumstances, but that's different from just getting knocked up.

I'll be honest, with my own parents, I'd love a father-son or mother-son type of bond, them deep meaningful ones, but that just ain't gonna' happen here. I won't let my child miss out on that.

Stereotypes : People tend to back up stereotypes by doing stupid things. A lot of black people tend to be gang members. A lot of Mexicans are Mexicants. There's a lot more, and I'm pretty sure a lot of you know them well.
Note : A lot, if you take offense, learn to read first.
Now that, you can take offense to.

Gangs : These people make me laugh. They act all tough, but they're pitifully weak. For starters, getting your 'homies' to take out one person shows you can't do it alone. When you're in a losing battle, they end up jumping in. You're certainly a man. The weak gets hunted. Not to mention the mentality of the mass majority. Shooting at a car because you feel like it? Hell, when they kill kids, some act like they did something cool, but even gangsters have a few morals here and there.

I saved that for last, because it'll go well in conjunction with the parent topic, about what a 'man' is. Simply put, it's someone responsible, with the 'right' values. The way teens are now, and the way they talk, I feel sorry for the life made by pitiful lowly 'humans'.

And lastly, there are people who keep acting like the -only- victims of things. These people need to get over themselves, and think about others for a change. How hard is it to shut up about yourself for 1 minute and let someone else do the talking?
It happens all over, and it's annoying.

Even more to add, I remember something on one of them judge shows on TV, about this one guy who married someone and slept with another woman or two, and said stuff about how it was 'fine' because she's just a wife and how she just needs to do things.
The funny part was : the guy was still leeching money from his mom to do things. He said stuff about 'being a man' and all that.
If you still need mommy's money, you can't say anything about that.
And that's not all of it...much more to say.

Other than that, nothing but rants and bronze coins.
