Dear Obnoxious Young People

1. Swearing does not make you sound cooler.  It makes you sound ignorant and crude.   F*** is not the only word in the English language.  Buy a thesaurus.

2. Even if you think you'll *never* use this stuff again, you do not have the right to sit in the back and talk about your silly little dramas.

3. As hard as it may be to believe, you are not the smartest, best-looking, or funniest person on the planet.  This does not make you a bad person, it just doesn't make you as special as your parents and teachers have deluded you into believing you are.

4. You are making the rest of your generation look ignorant, crude and self-deluded.  For their sake (and mine), grow a clue.
