ARE YOU COMPETITIVE?

[thekid65]

This is one of the many things wrong with our schools today. And what's really scary is that these kids will someday be running this country.

I don't like the "everybody's an equal winner!" philosophy when it comes to competition -- makes no sense to me.

Why not just give the kids who take the time to show up a certificate of participation, and give the ones who excel performance trophies/awards?

But, you do realize that the "what's really scary is that these kids will someday be running this country" line has been mumbled by grumpy stains in regards to the next generation forever, right?

Are you pulling the waistband of your trousers up around your nipples yet, Kid?

No, not yet. I'm in the calf-high socks and sandals stage of life at the moment.

True, grumpy old fucks have been saying what I've said for ages, but never have we, as a country, raised such a group of self-entitled, dont-know-how-to-lose bunch of brats in our history. You, as someone who generally works for them self, do not see this. But believe me...it's rearing its ugly head in the work force, and it's awful.

It scares me to think how this generation will be running our country, and the amount of money that will be spent on welfare and the like...as certainly anybody in need, whether it's their fault or not, will not have to do without...
