I really am sick and tired of Iphones , everywhere i go some knob is talking some absolute rubbish , taking selfies , and occasionally looking up to see where their at ....driving or walking ...they are totally immersed in their pathetic little world with no care or even awareness of anyone but themselves....selfishness seems okay ....my pet hate is "please excuse me i need to take this ".....take as much time as you like i say.....while i just fuck off.
I look at wife's cousin and her family as an example of the "me me" generation, up to their necks in debt yet they still keep buying rubbish to fill the house up with and getting further and further into debt because its all on the card.
reminds me of the old girl I heard about a long time ago, kept writing cheques but she had no money in her bank account, when questioned by family, she said " of course there is money in the account, why else would the bank keep sending me new cheque books?" duh.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.
