The World Has Moved On...

 Hello everyone, as some of you may know yesterday brought a lot of changes to world of warcraft, some of which I'm not all that thrilled with, such as the talent lock, which prevents advanced players from making hybrid specs, not to mention the fact that players have so few talent points to choose from. It did bring some positive changes to the UI and some of the new guild features though. I'll see how things shape up as cataclysm draws nearer though.

 Anyway, I'd like to go on to point out some of the things that exist in pop culture that should really die.

Reality TV:

Seriously, hated it when they started it, still hate it to this day. TV is supposed to be a way to escape reality, not embrace it. I could care less about what this or that celebrity is having for lunch, or getting prosthetic implants for their dog so it can feel like a man again... A huge sign that American culture is heading down the toilet and fast.

Yes, she makes out with him.

 And that doesn't even cover all the retarded "game" shows that has people eating garbage for small amounts of money. I guess the average price of dignity is pretty low now a days.

This is just sad.

The Twilight Craze:

I'm not going to badmouth the book, or the writer here, but rather the insanity of some of the fans out there.
It's great that it's getting the young to start to read actual books again, but the fact that so many girls are now looking for a 100 year old pedo-pire who sparkles, and will settle for nothing less than that, unless it's a topless Native American werewolf who also has a thing for babies, not making them, mind you. Seriously, it's sad, looking for some of the personality traits is one thing, but actually wanting a real vampire who probably won't have sex with you, and the one time he does, you'll be pregnant.


We all know how it's going to go anyways.



Gangsta speak:

It's not as bad when it's part of a "song" as it's poetic licence, such as Dr.Seuss would use in his books.

What up, yo?

But in the spoken world, it's just annoying, and sounds ignorant. And sadly people actually petitioned congress to make it a recognized language, and have it taught to children in schools.


Well, this is a sad world we currently reside in, but, if more people would step up to being individuals, instead of wandering sheep, things may actually improve. So, it's up to you, dear readers, to try to make the world a better place. Remember, only you can prevent bad pop culture!
