I would like these to either be fake tweets or be cherry picked tweets. Probably the latter as I know a few people like this. I don't find strange that they nearly all of them want Apple products too.


I have no doubts that they are legitimate ...

Last year I felt like punching my 7 year old nephew in the face because, even though he got an XBox 360 with Kinect, a bunch of videogames and his parents were taking them all to Disney World for a winter vacation, he was whining because he didn’t get an iPod Touch for Christmas. Of course, at his age this is (somewhat) expected and you know (or at least hope) he will grow out of it.

With that said, when I was working my way through university I was still running into people who had the same entitled attitude towards everything and it really got annoying. I remember sitting in a Sociology class at the beginning of the semester listening to two girls talk about how completely unreasonable one girl's parents were being because they only gave her $1,000 for clothes and that would only pay for a couple of outfits.

I don't want to imply that it is typical, but there is a massive number of teenagers and adults who have been spoiled by their parents, have serious entitlement issues, have little/no work ethic and don't see the value in anything.

 

The worst I ever saw was a women I was fixed up with a couple of years ago ... She was beautiful but at 28 she was living in a condo that was paid for by her parents, driving a car paid for by her parents, and receiving an allowance while complaining that the world was unfair because her English degree didn’t give her a similar income to her brother who was an electrical engineer.
