Here is a song i have found that discribes society today:

High School Never Ends by Bowling for Soup

Four years you think for sure
That's all you've got to endure
All the total dicks
All the stuck up chicks
So superficial, so immature
Then when you graduate
You take a look around and you say HEY WAIT
This is the same as where I just came from
I thought it was over
Aw that's just great

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex,
Who's got the money, who gets the honeys,
Who's kinda cute and who's just a mess
And you still don't have the right look
And you don't have the right friends
Nothing changes but the faces, the names, and the trends
High school never ends

Check out the popular kids
You'll never guess what Jessica did
How did Mary Kate lose all that weight
And Katie had a baby so I guess Tom's straight
And the only thing that matters
Is climbing up that social ladder
Still care about your hair and the car you drive
Doesn't matter if you're sixteen or thirty-five

Reese Witherspoon,
She's the prom queen
Bill Gates,
Captain of the chess team
Jack Black, the clown
Brad Pitt, the quarterback
I've seen it all before
I want my money back

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex,
Who's in the clubs and who's on the drugs,
Who's throwing up before they digest
And you still don't have the right look
And you don't have the right friends
And you're still listen to the same s**t you did back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

The whole damn world is just as obsessed
With who's the best dressed and who's having sex,
Who's got the money, who gets the honeys,
Who's kinda cute and who's just a mess
And I still don't have the right look
And I still have the same three friends
And I'm pretty much the same as I was back then
High school never ends

High school never ends

High school never ends

Great song and to true for words.I went to visit my parents who are in their 80's and I swear they still have "clicks" and talk about who is snubbing who at their bridge tournaments......and who was wearing what and whose kid is a DR,like that makes them more valuable as a human or that the parents should some how get the credit for the kids(in their fiftys)success(making money)but ...."god,that wife they married,she is a piece of work".....all this superficial back biting,gossiping,status ego boosting...some sick s**t,indeed.Whatever you do....dont mention the war/politics,a book(unless it is on best sellers list).

Just try and remember....not all people are like this,they are just in the majority and get more "air-time".
