Marginally mediocre.

I hate the youth of America

michaelrobbinspoet:

Many of those who follow my tumblr are young, apparently self-absorbed people who spend their time posting pictures of cute animals & fashion models & reblogging nauseating self-help platitudes about how special & creative & unique they are. The irony would be funny if it weren’t so obvious.

You’re not special or creative or unique, kids. A few of you, maybe, might one day do something interesting or remarkable—produce a genuine work of art, say—but most of you won’t. And those few who do will do so only once they understand what platitudes are & why they are poison. Delete your tumblr & go read a book, for Christ’s sake. And stop following me.

Jesus Christ. Forget what it’s like to be young much?
