the beautiful and the privileged

if i am not able to convey how i feel correctly, this blog may turn into a rant about rich people. all i mean to do is point out some of the social tendancys that come from the offspring of hard working people.




i spent most of tonight hanging out with my friend brook. she had been posting really depressing status updates on the all mighty facebook so i decided to give her a call and see if she wanted to do something to get this guy off her mind. as she is talking about him and how he treats her, it made me wonder if he had been brought up in a well-to-do family(a lot of the human garbage ive run into have grown up in wealthy families). she confirmed my suspicisons. the part that gets me is that his finantial status was the first thing that i thought about. it seems that, if not raised properly, children with lots of money treat other human beings like dirt. in my opinion they have a lack of good life experance which leads them to kind of create their own world where they are king because they have the good looks and money and everything. they think the only thing that matters is what is going on in their life and nothing else.
"Eff everyone else! My petty high school problems are more important than world hunger!"
then when they move out and get slaped in the face with the real world then they do one of three things right off the bat. 1) they realize what an ass they have been and shape up 2) it depresses them and they start to drink/do drugs ect. 3) they try to force their own small little world on everyone else.
this last one is the one that bothers me the most because this is the person that makes other people crap. their small relationship problems out weigh the death of gretchins mother last week. then gretchin feels like she has to deal with 2 peoples problems rather than just her own.

now there are always, ALWAYS, exceptions to what i just wrote and i dont feel like i have accuratly put what i feel into words. in fact i feel as though i have just written a whole load crap dumped from the bowls of bad wrighting. but it helped me blow of some steam that had been building up from 5 hours of listning. anyway...take what you will from this...or not...

  1. Maybe what they grow up with is a sense that their surroundings can, or ought to be, controlled, orchestrated to be "just so." This probably gives them a bit of trouble distinguishing between variables they can or should manipulate, and things they have to deal with. I don't know.
