Anybody else think that the attire worn by the young ones seems to be getting worse and worse every year?

I dunno about it getting worse, but some of them really need to invest in a mirror!! :P

Why do people feel the need to ball their eyes out at the most insignificant of events these days?!

Blame the schools for applying so much stress-talk and "THIS IS THE END OF YOUR LIVES" bs in 3rd year.
Seriously. The hype fed to teenagers about the Junior Cert is unbelievable.

Your either female, gay or are ashamed of your own sexuality if you won't have a second glance at a hot 16 year old dressed to turn heads :pac:

They probably lay it on thick so even the piss-takers get a little bit scared and do enough to pass.

In fairness, the Irish way of "shure it'll be grand" might take over if they aren't put under a little pressure to perform and the failure rates might shoot-up.

I actually think the over reaction to them that I saw today is part dopes not realising that it matters for f*ck all and part attention seeking sh!te from young ones.

Last year's Herald edition featured two pages.

To the left: the do gooder, chirpy faced feckers holding up their A infested results talking about their plans on having good clean fun in the Wesley. I almost puked when I read the bit where they said Jedward are a good influence and that alot of their peers are giving young people a bad image

To the right: The scandalous images of naggin-induced vomiting and fights. Also a moral dilema. Who's more in the wrong? The 15 year olds getting the fingers in an ally? Or the redtop photographer taking pictures of the event?

Ah the Herald! Where would our intersections be without them?

See, when something of real significance happens, like their Dad dies or their puppy needs to have a leg amputated - they'll probably have eyes drier than the Sahara while browsing Facebook on their I-Phone which their pocket money bought..

Is this supposed to be parody or is it just a load of ephebiphobic ****e?

It's a disgrace. Leaving Certificate is one thing but where did it become ok for 14-16year olds to go out and go on the lash for a minimum certificate?!!?

What exactly do parents think theyre gonna go out and do? Just dance with friends?

NO!

I know if they do very well, it's something to be celebrated but come on! Junior cert is basic. Ridiculous!!

Finally, someone's thinking of the children!

Mr. Rager

Came home from mine a while ago, had a good time without drinking too much. And lads, it would take a lot less than a naggin/wkd blue etc to pull the girls in my year (not condoning your paedo actions though )

Before I clicked the link to the thread, I went to my control panel. So I hovered over to "User CP". Que my eyes moving from CP to Junior Night and back again.

I must have been a loser because I did nothing my JC results night, I saw it for the insignificant event it was.

Me too. It was back in 1999. Had school the next day. JC is a pure waste of time.

The ole "youth have always been criticized by their elders" quote.

Yawn.

Doesn't make the criticisms any less valid.

It does actually

Think this sums it up -

"Our youth now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for their elders and love chatter in place of exercise; they no longer rise when elders enter the room; they contradict their parents, chatter before company; gobble up their food and tyrannize their teachers."

Socrates circa 400 B.C.

The youth have always grown out of certain behaviours and end up pretty much like their parents are when they get older.

It's partly through gradually realising your parents were pretty much right all along.

Im not criticising knacker drinking or any of that stuff that sets the pulses of tabloid editors racing.

I just don't believe that my criticism of the emotional overreaction "X-Factor/Glee" Culture is nullified by that rather simplistic quote.

Some of those dopes just don't grow out of it and act like drama queens all their lives!

There is valid reason to complain about young people but the Socrates quote indicates imo that older people complain at least partly out of jealousy of their youth and/or because they want younger people to behave in a way that keeps them in their place below them so when they behave in a way that isn't submissive it p!sses older people off. Older people complain partly as their feeling of superiority is threatened.
