Every Year, Beloit College comes out with a mindset list. This is a list of shows the world view of each generation, and this is my generation! Generation 2014, graduating class. These are my views on the topic present in this "list". I will tell you if I agree with some of these statements and if they are whack. Some of the things i might say will offend you, but in good sport I will keep my views fairly PG-13.
There are certain things that I defiantly agree with. One of which states, that Generation 14 has not ever had the pleasure of wrapping a wire from a corded phone around there hand while talking on it. This is, for me, defiantly true. when was the last time you saw anybody talking on a phone with a cord?? Even Generation 14's grandparents have been talking on cordless phones, for like ever. Generation 14 is the all about the cell phone. I cannot remember the last time when I was walking around campus and didn't see someone on one. Cell phones are attached to our ears 24/7. They are like another arm, or something like that.
Oh my! Some of these statements I do not agree with at all. This one made me laugh and it made me think do people really not know what this means. It said that when people point at there wrists we do not know that they are asking what time it is. I think that this statement it severely inaccurate for Generation 14. I know that if somebody pointed at there wrist toward me I would definitely, without a doubt, know that they were asking for the time. I really think that people that would not know what they were asking, need to really think about getting some serious help, just kidding. i just think that that is weird that some people would not know that is what they meant.
These statements that Beloit College has posted are funny and exceptionally witty in some cases. Most of them really made me stop and think about what they were saying, but once I thought about them I just couldn't help but laugh. Some of them are defiantly my favorites. I'm going to leave you with my all time favorite and let you ponder on your own. Having hundreds of cable channels but nothing to watch has always been routine. :) Thanks for reading Paiten's post!!!
