You all seem to forget that you were that age at some point too and more than likely weren't well versed in the philosophical nature, nor religious nature of events you were partying at. Nor did you care. All I see are a few kids having fun with one or two saying marginally inappropriate things about bitches. The one bloke even described the event spot on yet he's also given grief.
The way that most of you go on and on about how embarrassing they are leads me to believe that you never partied as kids at all. You were busy trying to hack each other's computers over the weekend.
Can someone explain to me precisely what it is that makes all of them an embarrassment? You are aware that the person behind the camera and the editing has an agenda, right? Considering that the religious nature of the event was never marketed. Intentionally so! Yet now they're all embarrassing because they didn't get it?
I find most of the replies in here to be far more embarrassing, considering you are making the same mistake that they did - not actually looking behind the curtain...
Like I said, they, imo do not from the video, look like anyone I would party with as they seem brain dead and I think that drugs and alcohol can only make me listen to drivel for that long.
To me it the "trend of today", to be stupid. That is why science programs do not have the viewership numbers of the kardashians.
I have no problem with these people, the more there are of them, the easier it is for me to get a good job etc etc.
I just fear for our future generations if these are the people that are filling the gene pool.
Also the OP should seriously get out more, people in Cape Town, George, Durban, Freestate and every small town you can think off have embarrassed themselves far more than these people.
Get off that soapbox. Are you trying to tell me that in university you didn't go out, get drunk and act it? Did you instead all light cigars and sip scotch next to a fire while traversing the tricky landscape of political interference in the economic system, old chap?
Nah, you got drunk out and about and occasionally made a fool of yourself, I'm sure. Those being interviewed are more than likely hopelessly pissed and are being asked to discuss the philosophical and religious nature of the event. An aspect they rightfully know fsckall about. So they're understandably, drunkenly stumbling through word salad.
Additionally, the inference of this post (considering your previous ones) is that only those who you'd be mates with are worthy of procreating. Who's got his word salad in a smoothie blender now?
What does them being pissed and discussing esoteric-centric nonsense they're in no position to answer, after having been accosted by a camera, have anything to do with their proclivity to watch reality tv?
How old are you now? They're 18. I am certain you partied hard, and had cameras been around for your drunken moment you too would have failed to come across as a philosophy and English professor on camera. I certainly don't believe that they're all destined to be toilet cleaners because they didn't understand the question and drunkenly attempted an answer. Or because they had their shirts off and were partying.
You see the problem with reality tv isn't merely that it shapes young minds for the worse, it also creates a stereotype that others now latch on to. Notice a single trait (hair and skin tone) in a person and immediately they're an imbecile, destined for nothingness and an embarrassment to you. All because they resemble a stereotype you hate. Works both ways if you want to use reality tv as some sort of argument here...
I've got embarrassing footage of my sister acting similarly in a drunken state which is destined for her 21st later this year. She's incredibly intelligent and at 20 earns far more than anyone in her age-bracket, and far more than most of the detractors in here, in all likelihood. She also watches The Kardashians, to my horror. Your parents more than likely disapproved of the schit you enjoyed as a kid too. Stop acting like a grandpa now...
Absolutely. The DBN Colourfest was atrocious in terms of the calibre of people there...
I am 100% sure I did not ever come across as idiotic as Zeus and his friend, not even when I was wasted, not even if I had been 13 years old and wasted.
Sure I have. But as said above, I am 100% sure that even as a 13 y/o while drunk I would have come across as less empty headed.
No. Where do you get that from? I am starting to think that Killa is rubbing off on you.
The people int he video are retards imo. But that is their right. I seriously just do not hope any of them contribute to the world population, barring themselves.
And now you justify your point of view with reasoning that you wouldn't consider partying with any of them. Fruit of the poisonous tree...
Ever notice the trend that more intelligent people on average would rather watch something that adds to their "knowledge" than watching something like the kardashians with no educational value?
Yes, in my age-bracket. Not when I was 18 though...
Wtf are you on about here? My statement was that these people would rather watch something that has no educational value than something that has. You try and delve a tad too deep.
It's quite simple really. If you want to make assumptions about what these people more than likely watch, then I can easily make assumptions about you using the same medium - reality tv...
I am not saying that there are not smart people that also like watching the kardashians BUT I am saying is that I am sure if given the choice, a sample group of intelligent people would rather watch something with a bit more "brain food" than the kardashians, on average.
Agreed. And the vast majority of those people will be far older than 18.
You're having a dig at a bunch of kids who are drunk and trying to address a question they are in no position to answer, while effectively live on tv, as the editor clearly has an agenda.
You lot are simply having a dig at younger yous in all likelihood. I find it both ironic, and moronic...
When I was 18 years old I was a knowitall little upstart and spoke the biggest heap of crap when I was really pissed.
I wish I was zeees![]()
Jeez some of you okes need to relax. How do you tell someone how to have fun? I've acted worse when I was young and drunk![]()
marine1 wishes he was Middle Eastern. Well I'll be damned :erm:
