one thing is for sure, social media makes it easier to notice dumb people, whereas before you could do very stupid things without the whole world knowing about it...

You guys wanna hear something that’s really (frank)ed??

Apparently at the high school there’s a boy and a girl that identify themselves as cats.

There’s a litter box in each of the bathrooms.

Jesus H Christ..

yeah that's another thing we'll eventually have to learn somehow, properly managing their use of technology, and having them be interested in activities that don't require a screen or monitor.

Telling them the value of an education is more beneficial than a snap score is like telling a meth head that chocolate is a safer addiction to have.

ok well it's not true in PEI at least...

yeah, that's why it needs to be managed at an earlier age imho, so that they don't get to that point.

I agree with this, but then again our previous generation was saying very similar things about us... so either they were right, and we truly are getting dumber, or we're seeing things worse than they are and this future generation will be fine.
- Pat1993

Agreed, but they were saying we were physically lazy. We had most of them academically surpassed by grade 8 because many in that generation did not finish school as they needed to work to help provide for their families.
