To be honest with everyone I Blame television and all its nonsense. I say this because I have found that anyone that doesn't meet the stereotypes (that's exactly what it is) depicted on the rectangular mind numbing machine is automatically labeled odd or different. Now it could just be people in my age group (I'm 22), but I fear that that's just not the case. It pisses me off because when someone meets me or someone that is COMPLETELY original we are cast off to the side because we don't fit into this neat little box or idea of how people are 'supposed' to be. Well you know what F**k your bu**sh** stereotypes and if I have to be persecuted for being original, then so be it; but I will NOT compromise myself to fit in to your idea of how I'm supposed to be.
As you can see this angers me because I feel that there is a bit off social engineering being done by the people who control TV and everyone is too stupid to see it. When you think about it there are all these stereotypes and after a while it become which came first the chicken or the egg and then before you know it stereotypes are being created and the idiots just follow. Now this would be fine if it wasn't for the fact that I'm outnumbered by idiots 4:1.
Totally true. I get sick of that as well.
