WTF?: Pop Culture Edition

Um, WTF? Can't a kid smoke weed anymore without the whole world going NUTS about it?

he's growing up so fast • via
Have you heard about this #cuttingforbieber craze? What started as a prank I guess, most young, clueless little girls took as a serious thing? Slicing up their arms in protest to Justin smoking weed? If we cut ourselves he will quit? [I am probably WAY late to this game but it was just brought to my attention yesterday so I googled this crap this morning.]

What on earth is this world coming to people? I'm sorry if back in the day Donnie, Joey, or any of the NKOTB clan decided to do drugs, I would NOT cut myself to hope they'd stop. Of course we all know they were clean cut boys that never did wrong right? Pfft, as if.

I just don't get kids today. I feel like none of them think for themselves. Well not all of them, but most of them. I say this because one of my Jr. Bridesmaids brought this to my attention in her instagram feed last night. She was sure to include the Futurama Meme of "I don't want to live in this world anymore." And can you blame her? She also sited that these girls were clearly stupid, and didn't want to be associated with girls like that. Amen girl, AMEN!

Sorry I shouldn't say stupid, I was young and dumb once too and it's rude to be so negative, right? Sorry, F that, what these girls need is not to be coddled but talked to by their parents. I'd be horrified if I found out my daughter did this to herself for a super star. I'm not talking a few little slices, I'm talking posting images of your bloody arm, on twitter in protest to JB smoking a blunt. I mean COME ON!!!! Shave your head, sure, wear their t-shirts great, but cutting yourself for Justin Beiber, little ladies, let's reserve that shizz for Slayer fans, OK?

I just don't get it.***

Pin It!

OMG! Seriously?!?!?!? Like seriously? This is real? I'm in shock. And a little terrified for those girls. I don't even really know what to say. :(

I never did anything like that. And if I find out my kid does, it's on.

STUPID STUPID STUPID!!!

Kids today scare me (this coming from someone of the ripe old age of 26). But seriously, things weren't like this just a few years ago when I was a kid. Now, they seem to have no morals, no values, no minds of their own...It's terrifying. I heard about this cutting thing and all I could do was shake my head in bewilderment. There's just no logic anymore.

I was going to say OMG!!! Seriously???, but Carolyn beat me to it!

But really...what the hell is wrong with kids today? Most of the time, I'm dying to have a baby, but then I hear something like this and I think I'm probably better off childless.

I fear for our future is these are the assholes that are going to be taking care of us.

No, really.
