inoraroundhermouth: ricecrispydick: trogdooor: lalondes: crystalzelda: ameliaelizabeth: TIME’s new cover makes me so mad I could write essays about it, but instead I’m going to keep job hunting since in today’s world a university degree means nothing and therefore like much of my generation, I’m stuck choosing between minimum wage jobs and internships that I can’t afford to accept in an attempt to pay off my tens of thousands of dollars worth of student debt. I’d be interested in reading this article to see exactly what makes us entitled and lazy. Are we lazy because more of us are completing high school and going to college than ever before? Are we entitled because our standard of living is declining? Do we live with our parents because we’re too slothful to leave or is because our education costs are getting steeper and steeper while we’re getting less and less aid? Tell us, Time Magazine, about how we’re narcissistic little slugs when we’re faced with an economic crisis that resulted in a lowering of our standard of living, an increase in tuition costs and how when we get out of our very expensive schools, more and more of us are going to end up working minimum wage jobs.  I also want to note that it’s really frustrating that the face of “lazy, entitled narcissism” is a young woman. Everything you all said and more. I need to get my hands on a copy of this article. Although, I am so offended by every single word in just the title, I can’t even imagine how they could redeem themselves in the rest of the publication. Disgusted. I think what makes me really angry about reading the headline alone is that it suggests that we came to that attitude that he thinks our generation all exhibits as a whole by ourselves. He thinks we haven’t figured out that our resulting laziness and narcissism is nothing more than being raised in a society that is dripping with hypocrisy and double standards. We were raised by our parents to hold ourselves to high standards and expect the best, but are supposed to be happy with working minimum wage after graduating college with degrees that cost an arm and a leg to obtain. And it’s our fault. It’s our fault that we were raised with the idea that if we work hard and get smart, we’ll actually get something out of it. wait has anyone who is upset about this actually read the article?
