Trendy Jaded People Who Don't Like Anything - 12/12/02

Yes, one of my current big pet hates. You've all met them, they seem to be especially abundant on the Internet where it's important to be cool because hell, we wouldn't want people to know what we're really like now would we! Yes, they're one step above the moaners. They won't moan without prompting. They don't just start whining about things. Oh no. Whenever someone expresses an opinion (good or bad) on something, say a game or a film, then the Trendy Jaded People will chirp up. Inevitably they won't like it. Depending on their vocabulary (usually limited) the description will be something like "<insert thing> sucks!/<insert thing> is shit!/Yeah I've <insert action> <insert thing>, it was ok at first but meh it sucks now". You'll notice they will have real problems initially expressing their "opinions" in a literate manner. It will take someone with some actual backbone and personality (the latter is severely lacking in Trendy Jaded People) to try and put across the point of view that the "thing" isn't actually that bad.

Now the problem is that Trendy Jaded People really don't like anything. You have to praise the very internet they pollute when they actually express a like for a certain thing. However you can bet your ass they will be hating it by the end of the next quarter or when another Trendy Jaded Person decides to voice their distaste for the item, thereby putting the other Trendy Jaded Person at risk of loosing their "coolness". Sadly there are so many of these vapid sub-humans that they all think of each other as cool or cutting edge when they express their incompetent opinions on things. I figure all these saps will eventually do one of two things: discover religion - yes, add to the diseased masses of one organised religion or another, or kill themselves - they will discover that literally nothing in life retains any enjoyment for them past a month and decide life has no worth. To be honest I'm kind of hoping they take the latter path...

Remember kids, liking things is not wrong. Have strength in your convictions, remember anyone who doesn't agree with you is more than likely wrong. Or on the path to religious enlightenment...
