Me Me Me

The "Me Me Me Generation" shows how our generation is the most self-obsessed, narcissistic group of people to ever walk the earth...... I believe him.  "Millennials grew up watching reality-TV shows which are basically documentaries about narcissists.  Now they have trained themselves to be reality-tv-ready."  Now before i say anything more, i must admit that im not above the crowd at all.  I use my phone daily and i use and check social networking sites often.  Where i differ though is that i feel like as the millennials are continuing to get more and more into themselves and their phone problems, i feel like im slowly drifting away.  I used to love all the action and dramatic problems that happened online, now i cant stand it.  You will never find me taking a "selfie", i rarely ever update my status, and i stay the hell off my phone when im driving.  I cant help to think that if im starting to side with his argument, I must be getting old?
Well maybe not, because his argument isnt very strong.  I first got into the article strongly agreeing because he was giving it punch after punch, but then halfway through he started acknowledging the millennials and kind of praising them.  It was hard to see where he stood by the end, but i choose to believe he still has strong feelings against the way this generation is turning out.  What is funny though is that he didnt address the trend of older generations that are starting to use their phones and are social networking more often now.  I see older people getting into it and in some cases using it more than the millennials.  Its all about the times, if they had this technology in their time, they wouldve been us.  Im sure Joel Stein is signed up for a few social networking accounts too.
