What the hell is it with the adults of this generation?
Pretentious little tampons, everywhere I go
I hear people remarking how lousy a teenager's standard of English
is, in general.

Not that I do not agree that there is quite a significant number
of teenagers who desperately need help for their English.
But generally, most teens manage by with a fairly good command of English.

In fact, why not take me for an example?
15 year old, student.
Perfect example of a teenager who's always faced
with know-it-alls who think they know better.

Simply because one decides to indulge in his
own unique culture, immersing and practicing it,
doesn't mean that one has actually lost sight of reality.

Simply because I converse in Singlish without a care,
with any and everybody I meet doesn't mean that I can't
humiliate stuck-up people with 'The Queen's English'.

Which, to the common peasant -ignorant tampons included-
means speaking with a fake un-Singaporean accent,
using as much impractical vocabulary-that almost no one understands- as possible
and looking like another stuck up little prat yourself.

Face it, no one speaks "Queen's English" anymore,
not even the Queen herself. The English language has
been integrated into so many different cultures,
used in so many different places, spoken each with their own
'modification'. Who is to say which is correct?
Even in Britain, different dialects are spoken throughout.
So where's you Nirvana then?

Or would you prefer it if I was just rude and intimidate you,
on behalf of the Teenagers, with how weak my command of the English
Language is?

Or would
'Supercalifragilisticexpealydocious'
in an accent suffice, you little wart?
It doesn't make a difference to you does it?

Weak minded fools,
who's idea of good English means simply
throwing around obscure vocabulary that no normal
person uses and no one cares about.

What about being able to converse normally?
Being able to deliver your message across,
in a clear concise manner without beating around the bush, punk?


Now, if someone accused Teens of not being able
to appreciate the Arts, that'll agree. I still remember
the last time I tried to set up a date watching a concert.
Needless to say, the outcome wasn't quite as desirable as one would have wanted.
