the youth of the nation

Wanna see the status of our modern day youth? Just take a ride on a bus when school lets out. The observed population could be misrepresentative of all youth though, because the rich kids hardly take the bus. I do see rich girls on the bus every now and then though. How did I know that they were rich, you ask? Simple. When a high school girl walks on the bus with a Louis Vuitton bag, that's gotta be rich (I double checked to see if it was real). It was really odd though, her other clothes didn't match. She was wearing a Kappa track suit. I dunno, but that just doesn't work for me. That was like this other time when this girl walked into Red Robin with her (fake) LV bag, and wearing her soccer team sweats. I'm no fashion police, but your best bag doesn't belong with your scrubs. That's like having a brand new Taylor Made R7 Quad driver in your bag full of Canadian Tire irons, that doesn't work. Maybe all these girls just wanna be like Xtina. Maybe I missed the memo on the soccer-game-on-the-runway look.

The other batch of kids are the "rebels." They're the ones drawing on the seats with Sharpies, listening to loud music with profanities, and stealing the ads that line the top corners of the bus. What's worse is a "rebel" with his "crew." The "rebel" will feel more compelled than ever to piss people off, in order to gain their street cred.

Then there are the sleepers. These kids stay up way too late at night doing who knows what. They find the long time spent on a long bus ride the perfect time to sleep. That's cool with me, but it's not cool when you start leaning your head on my shoulder. Damn! I'm not your lover, get off of me!
