    -The recent craze of supernatural fantasy. I don't have anything against the supernatural fantasy genre,but I don't like the way they did it,by making everything a love story. I heard there making a zombie romance novel.
    -The idea that you can make a movie out of anything. The Transformers series,Mirror Mirror,The Raven. Stop ruining things I like Hollywood!
    -The fact that there are advertisements everywhere. Before the DVD,in my novel,half the pages in the magazines. I don't want any of it.
    -The fact that news websites are so boring,I just skip to read people's comments and opinions,because there always more interesting.
    -Tiger parenting.
    -People who complain about everything in the media and entertainment industries as "immoral" or "unholy." Don't watch it then! The same thing for people who complain about art. Art and entertainment is not meant to have limits,but instead show the world and life in whatever way possible.
    -To go with the last two,parents who want to ban certain books. No...just no.
    -Toddlers & Tiaras.
    -TLC. It is so far from being the Learning Channel anymore.

    Yeah i only just noticed this. What's wrong with being proud of your ethnicity?
    I consider my mix of Scottish and Irish a source of great pride and i come from a tradition highland military family on one side and a traditional southern and western Irish family on the other.

    If people weren't proud about their nationality and/or ethnicity then traditions would die off and it's already happening now where people care so little and eventually it's going to result in society breaking down or something... yes i exaggerated then

    You are right on the one about media and entertainment industries, but not on the other one. Grafitti isn't art, it's just a signature of the douche, who made it.

    Graffiti can be incredibly good looking, in big cities like Paris I've seen very cool graffiti.

    How did I contradict myself? I said that I don't like people who complain about the "morality" of the media. I'm complaining about not liking the supernatural fantasy genre,because I don't like the way it's being done artistically,by basically making everything a teenage romance. I don't think it's "immoral",I just don't like it. And I don't consider the graffiti in a public restroom art per say.

    Well technically graffiti is any words or images illegally placed somewhere. Though there is graffiti which is actually attractive,then there's scracthings of curse words and crudely drawn body parts on a bathroom stall with a knife.

    You can be raised to have pride in your nation for example...

    I don't entirely agree, I'm proud of who my grand and great grand parents were, the only thing I will contribute to my ethnic heritage is the retelling of their story to my children.

    But, I would agree with you as far as the kind of idiots who think being Irish is all about wearing green and drinking beer, who think speaking Irish is to talk in funny English accent.

    Or the Jersey Shore types who call themselves "Italian" but can't speak it, or who get upset if someone calls them "white" because they have an identity crisis and know nothing about their cultural origins.

    I love George Carlin but this is one subject i disagree on.

    If it wasn't for pride of your nationality then countries such as Ireland would still be under occupation. Nobody would have felt the drive or need to stand up for their country and their people.
    I think the problem with the west these days is nobody is proud of where they're from (and i don't count football hooligans who paint their nations flag on their face and go around swearing at foreigners as being proud of your country) or where their family is from anymore and that's why we have people who spend their entire lives trying to scam money out of the government and get by doing as little for their country as possible.
    If everybody was brought up to have genuine pride in their nationality, maybe we'd be much better off.

    What terrifies me is knowing how things are in the US and in Britain for example, if some foreign power DID invade... these countries would just collapse because nobody cares enough to actually do something about it.

    I understand why some people might frown on national/ethnic pride because of the negative examples we have these days from the morons who do consider it to be walking around shouting it and being ridiculous but that is NOT what national pride is. That's all talk, these people wouldn't do a THING if their people were genuinely under threat.

    Yeah I see what he means, but you see more of that kind of thing elsewhere (Balkans threads come to mind) than I think you do in general in America, most of us in America are happy to be "such and such" and wouldn't know the first reason why other than to celebrate it or put a bumber sticker on our car.

    I know what you mean, I agree.

    However, it was just your previous post I was bother with.

    Add reality Tv that features nothing more than drama queens doing nothing other than sitting around talking trash about each other and crying about how bad they have it : Real Housewives, Jersey Shore, Hollywood House wives/husbands, Jerseylicious and so on...
