Abstain from Totality.

[TWDAMO]

Well at this point of your life I would say many oldies would know a lot more than you.

So it might be time to shut up and listen, with out being a load mouth.

Let me give you the best advice you will ever receive from anyone, and I give it to you FREE.

To know where you came from, is to know where you are and this will help you know where you are going.

What do you understand about the JEWS and the Death Camps?
What do you understand about Stolen Children?
What do you understand about the Killing Fields?
Better still, What do you Understand?

For that you better Go and ask an OLD PERSON.

Then you may understand.

Weren't these all things perpetrated by the older generation?

Old people are stupid, they compare the past to the present through rose coloured glasses, if they were so fucking smart they wouldn't need to bring up historical shit or use quotes from dead poets to make a point.

I think it's because they can't ejaculate anymore.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the class of '97: Wear sunscreen.

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now."

lol, i dont know what TWDAMO considers old, but i'm just about mid 40's, guess i'm getting there.

perspective, not just for the old but the young at heart as well. :)

40's, 50's, 60's and see ya later Charlie. Life is the fart of a gnat.

[torbjon]

"old" is relative.

Nola sez anyone over ten is "old"... and she is 100% correct as that is Twice her age.

[GeneralStriker]

how the hell did that kid get to 10 so fast? it seems like it was just last week you were changing her diapers. what the hell is this- an assembly line speed-up?

[Heike]

Hey General .. if 10 is twice her age, then she's five.

Here's your sign.

Let me try this...

Young people are stupid, they compare the past to the standards of the present without accounting for the zeitgeist of the times. If they were so fucking smart they would learn from history so we wouldn't be in the bullshit we are now nor use quotes from websites to make a point...

[WarlordZeroOne]

Wowzers packOst is right i am going to shoot myself in the foot here so here it is i am 61 years old and yes the young generation today is SHIT all because the majority of parents do not give a Fuck about what their kids are upto and a gross lack of tough punishment at home and in school,again the do-gooders will and are making life shit for old people,actually MOJO you should have a Topic on the old and young generation of today.This should stir up the POT and we'll all smoke it.

[GeneralStriker]

wisdom is a function of age but even so- few attain it.

[WarlordZeroOne]

these days the wise are becoming not so wise.wonder if the younger generation have any IDEAS.

[pack3tg0st]

61 years old and yes the young generation today is SHIT

some/most of the young generation... I try to shy away from sweeping, all inclusive statements...

Besides... I'm 28... hehe

But I'm different... I don't even fit in with my age group anymore...

[mojo]

wisdom has nothing to do with age imo, i know plenty of folk well into their 50's and 60's who have no clue.
wisdom is more about how we treat each other and the planet imo.

or "wisdom is knowing how to grow old disgracefully". :)

[WarlordZeroOne]

The GREAT thing about AmKon is you can be old and be Disgracefull, and laugh i like how all you people tick on AmKon its the only site i know where you can say what you feel and it seems no one takes offense i like that, my oldest son who is 25 is going to sign up to AmKon he has seen me on it and says its a great site,so keep all the good stuff rolling along with the crap and we will all keep laughing,have a great week everyone you as well Lala in N.Z.

[pack3tg0st]

Cool Warlord!

yah, its pretty much a free for all here... and most of us have pretty thick skin :P

usually it lends itself to some decent threads... you really kinda have to do your homework around here or you'll get torn to shreds lol

But to me, Amkon doesn't seem so much like a CT forum as it does a Think Tank... We seem to actually DO shit here... not just talk about it...

Its an amazing dynamic I haven't quite seen before...

[WarlordZeroOne]

Yeah packOst its an amazing thing how this site makes you feel,i have not found anything like it i am in total comfort here and its great to talk,shout it out and say it as it is,Now Thats Democracy on AmKon.the fucking Poloticians could learn a lot from AmKon,on second thoughts keep the bastards out.

[Snow Crash]

these days the wise are becoming not so wise.wonder if the younger generation have any IDEAS.

Actually yes, some of us do. I am not sure many people would like them though; it requires more than just pissant political and economical nobjockery, which ALWAYS seems to be the extent to which the ruling gen are willing to go to. Unless there's oil or something like that at stake of course. No, for these ideas, it requires people get off their arses and do something.

These ideas require new ways of thinking and behaving as a society, new priorities in life, evolving beyond petty materialism and the lust for fake money, new attitudes toward technology and science, new standards of education, WITHOUT the poxy religious/political angles buried within the curriculum. It also requires a certain level of maturity which, ironically, few of the older generation can genuinely claim to posess, let alone the fucking imbeciles that constitute a majority in the younger generation. Most importantly of all though, it requires that we begin to respect our fellow man. Human beings are not just fucking statistics or referrence numbers. See the faces behind the numbers.


But I'm different... I don't even fit in with my age group anymore...

[mojo]

haha....me...really...mature.

[theeindiee]

I think the most important thing us young people forget to do is admit when we are wrong. I'm wrong all the time, and that's why you never see my opinion stay the same. I'm always modifying my worldview in accordance with the mistakes I made before. It is the only way to live. Chaos within your own mind is the way new ideas are born.

We need to stop being stubborn, stop being reckless just because we have someone to clean up after us, stop judging each other, but most importantly... start making friends with ourselves, and getting to know the invisible man/woman inside of us who we talk to in order to know what we're doing.

I make mistakes daily. It's only because I am developing daily. Some see that as insanity... but look at those stuck on a one track type of lifestyle. They are a mess, maybe not on the outside, but on the inside... and that's where it counts.

I don't know of anything more important than owning up to life. I didn't even know that until just a few days ago.

There's not much to rant about anymore.

[boycotteverything]

Oooooo look; peanut butter cups!

[Eyeforalie]

Well, I suppose its time for me to put my .02 in on this.

I think that with age an inherited bias is not easily overcome. I think that having an open and unadulterated thought process is critical to making rational judgments.

Youth brings ignorance. A lot of the younger generation is naturally ignorant as well as placed inside a societal bubble of implied ignorance. I dont know how it is to raise chickens and chop their heads off and clean them. I only know how to go to Sendik's and buy Free-range, organic, non-GM, boneless chicken breast, twist open the propane and push the ignition button to start the grill.

There is alot that youth take for granted.

This is due to the older generations.

If parents and teachers would understand that their biases are theirs and to teach based on principal opposed to teaching based on what they think is "right" or "correct", maybe todays youth wouldnt be so disallusioned. I think the biggest fallout in the 60's was the division of those who stood up and those who wouldnt and couldnt and the ever increasing paths these unintentional groups unintentionally follow.

No one stands up for shit.

This is why most old people suck. They sit and bitch about their 401k's and pension funds, worrying about whats going to happen when THEIR generation sucks up all the SS and dont do a damn thing about it.

THEY DONT FUCKING WORK!!!!

And that is why most young people suck. My generation has been bread to have the "AmeriKan Dream"- A mortgage, 2 working parents, 3 cars, 2.5 kids, white picket fence, soccer practice, field trips, home work, ADD, allergies, ADHD, flu shots, RO water, 5000 channels in HD .......

Just to keep us from thinking about what the fuck is happening around us.

The problem is that you old bastards dont communicate properly with us stupid youths and guide us. Tell us what we are doing is wrong. "Kids these days and their damn rap music."

Tell us why its bad to idolize crack wrappers and wack actors.

Tell us why its bad to idolize money and credit, letting material objects objectify our lives, leaving ourselves and children forever indebted.

Sitting and bitching and acting like you know everything makes you fucking worthless regardless of age, gender, race, sexual orientation, political views or religious origin.

Dont be opinionated solely based on emotion.

Thank you and have a nice day :)

[WarlordZeroOne]

Thats really good Eyeforalie,But you cannot offload this on the old folks Why! because you can only advize to your kids or anyone else and you can only give that advice if YOUR advice is correct, otherwise by giving bad advice the next time you give advice no Fucker listends because yours or my advice was wrong,its the do-gooders that pass the laws you cannot smack your kids the same in school you must have rules if these rules are not enforced all shit breaks out,Look we have to go by the law as adults if we go and rob a grocery store its JAIL (if you get caught) where i live if a 14 year old gets pissed out of his head and breaks someones window,the cops come only if someone calls for them, and then get a caution,what the fucking good is a caution the 14 year old must be punished,but the do-gooders say its a caution first,BULLSHIT and i am pissed off coz that applies today also to young adults its shit,another factor our prisons in the U.K. are full my answer to that is build more FUCKERS but the politicians won't spend the tax payers money on something that will not earn FUCKING money,it stinks it suks and its all FUCKED up.

[boycotteverything]

wisdom is in knowing that the last are first and the first are last. the world has it upside down. who provides the living with the greater service- the executive who accumulates great wealth and squanders it on ever more elaborate toys despoiling the planet by his perverse needs? or the garbage man who saves us from drowning in our own shit? answer that question correctly and you've achieved a bit of wisdom.

[WarlordZeroOne]

C'Mon boycotteverthing your two lines up top is pure VERBALISM come and tell us all something about this topic that is really relevant and show us all your real talent please.and don't take offense thats another please.

[skunk]

He does that a lot.

[boycotteverything]

it's relevant. the question is- who better serves humanity? i go with the garbage man while society goes with the bankers. just my humble choice, of course. but i'm an old commie so what can i say? so who do i side with in this conundrum? i go with the young. the old fuckers had their time and wasted it on nonsense. with the young there's still a chance. a wise man once said, "if your not a marxist by the time your 20 you're not too bright- if you're still a marxist by the time you're 40 you're not too bright either." so what ought you be by the time you're 40? a fucking anarchist, of course.

[pack3tg0st]

so what ought you be by the time you're 40? a fucking anarchist, of course.

Does that mean I'm not to bright? or does that mean I'm ahead of the curve? LOL

Well I'd go with the executive. Ther garbage man saves us from drowning in our own shit, but should he? Or should he let us drown so we learn to swim?

The executive is just taking advantage of those who deserve to be taken advantage of. The ones who got him there willingly, whether they realize it or not.

[boycotteverything]

that's pretty cynical, IMO. i'm personally averse to banksters and other crooks and mobsters. but we all have our preferences.
The executive is just taking advantage of those who deserve to be taken advantage of.No-one deserves to be exploited and enslaved.

[theeindiee]

It's not cynical at all. It's just the way the mirror shines.

In my opinion.

[boycotteverything]

'the mirror shines?' english, please.

[WarlordZeroOne]

Hi boycotteverything you say you where a marxist and i would say that all the time you where a marxist did it make your choices in life better or do you in general just keep having that BIG stab at everything that has not gone your way,also its eveyones choice what road to travel along, from my experience my grandad was a commy and he worked in the mines in yorkshire but his beliefs in marxism was shit 70 years ago, and today marxism is just about fucked so you are really living your life in a minority assuming you are still a marxist,if you are not i would be willing to gamble you are quite bitter about your walk in life,now don't be offended i am not judging you but going with your name you have chosen you are not a happy person for whatever your reasons are,i have not been a member of AmKon a week yet i am 61 years old but i am not stupid and roughly your comments that i have read nearly always seem negative,thats your choice freedom of AmKon,on the other hand if i am wrong about you PLEASE come back at me all guns blazing you have the right and i will not feel bad and thats a promise,so come back at me and tell us all on AmKon what your life is really all about.Kind Regards WarlordZeroOne,Oh the reason for my name is because its my pc gaming name OK.

[Eyeforalie]

Thats really good Eyeforalie,But you cannot offload this on the old folks Why!


I didnt unload it ALL on the old folks.

Youth are arrogant. They dont listen to people bitch. They should. I know that it would have made my life easier.

My point was that elders have to answer the question "why?" when explaining to ensure that the youth get it through their thick skulls opposed to rebelling against words of wisdom that come off as "Im smarter then you because I said so and Im older."

I take full responsibility of my problems in my own life. I can not, and will not, take responsibility for occurrences that have taken place in the past. I will however, try to proactively better a situation that I deem unfit. It is not either until a problem is fixed or call to action must be made that I will call out the ones who caused a problem.

I do see the lack teaching the youth morals and honesty a problem that has been perpetuated by our elders. The degradation of family and its values is standing proud at the forefront of many large issues.

This is something that must not be allowed to continue.

Who employs the garbage man?

The fucked up thing is that there is a vicious circle of hierarchy which makes all equal in the end.

I guess its kinda like my interpertation of Heaven and Hell.

What you do in your life effects, both positively and negatively, everything and everyone around you. You leave a footprint upon the earth.

Will that footprint be overall positive (Heaven) or overall negative (Hell)?

Youll get eaten by worms either way.


Maybe the garbage man shot H all day and sold his kids toys for hits, and being a garbage man was the only job he could hold down.
Maybe the Exec. employed thousands and gave life, although was personally unhappy and buried his heart and mind with diamonds to continue on.

neither.
the garbage man couldn't give a shit about the rubbish he picks up and dumps, if anything the homeless guy who sifts through the dump recycling the garbage provides a greater service.
but his service is minimal in the overall scheme.

[WarlordZeroOne]

My country and local councils have made it that we have a collection of garbage every 2 weeks instead of every week its crap, also we now have 4 containers for recycling,the council are making a fortune from recycling not a penny or cent comes back to the residents,also we call these larger containers SKIPS and over the pond you use the term Dumpsters,well the people whom go through our containers in the U.K. are called (where i Live) Skip Rats. another load of useless information.
