I think it should be OK to punch a male child in the face for knowing every word to a Kesha song.
Seriously the courts should do the decent thing and look the other way. Don't give me that shit that the only thing these kids are exposed to these days is whatever is playing on the radio, either. That argument went out the window with a little technological advancement known as the internet. Maybe you've heard of it?
There is a whole world of music out there for these little bastards to explore and they are content to hang out on Twilight and Justin Beiber message boards. This whole generation is ass backwards. We are "pussifying" and babying these kids to the point if I were to walk in right now and blast some Motorhead, they would curl up into a ball and piss themselves.
STP, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Rage Against the Machine, Toadies, FUCKING NIRVANA, this what was blasting through the cassette boombox in my room when I was their age……it's a far cry from the shit that is spewed from the radio these days.
I blame MTV for having absolutely nothing to do with music anymore and catering to 13 year old girls. I blame American Idol. I blame autotune. I blame reality television. But most of all, I blame this new generation of parents.
My generation.
What happened to us? Are we really buying into this myth that we are protecting these children from the evils of the world? Spend some time with your kid. Teach them things. Stop dropping them off at the fucking mall while you hit up happy hour with the girls. I say all this because I work directly with kids EVERYDAY. A wide array of them. But the more I'm around them, the more i see something is off.
