WahooSteeler Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 YouTube, TikTok, Instagram...........sheesh, blows me away the current generation can become millionaires doing the same stupid crap I did when I was in my 20s. Damn I missed my calling!
75sv1 Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 Are you saying Us previous gens were just as stupid or more stupid than the current Gen? Its just we didn't document it? A million isn't want it use to be.
Jesse J Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 I think we are equally stupid as you guys just there was no one around to document you guys
Pete M Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 it cuts both ways. how many people have ruined their lives via the camera in their pocket?
eaglescout526 Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 There’s a Will Smith interview somewhere where he says, “social media allows you to share how stupid you are and get made fun of for it, as to where when I was a kid, we could be stupid and no one would know about it”. Just a paraphrase.

Eating tide pods, snorting condoms, gorilla glue in your hair....along with all the other they stupid af "challenges". Don't get me wrong I did a lot of dumb stuff but today is a different level. I had jackass growing up so it was fun to watch people do stupid stuff but never had the thought to go mimic behaviors let alone record it. That's the problem today, common sense has been been replaced with the need for gratification from your peers based on shock value. You know that saying mom's always say, "Well if Johnny jumped off a bridge would you do it?" My day the answer was no, today it's gotta do it for the gram.
Pete M Posted February 28, 2021 Posted February 28, 2021 kids were ALWAYS that dumb. it's part of growing up as you gain experience in dealing with peer pressure. it's just that the double-dog-dares are more widespread now due to the internet. previously it would have been just a kid or 2 in that town that were dumb enough to lick the frozen flag pole.
derf Posted March 1, 2021 Posted March 1, 2021 Yeah, kids are stupid. Always were. Always will be. The internet just let you triple dog dare a lot more people at once.
