          Same. I'm stunned by her cynicism. Is it the generational gap? Are our young so lost different from us?


          There is a post in which she complained about having spent $21.5 for cabfare to the poly, but it was for the wrong day, so she felt she should get some compensation. Why this sense of entitlement? She could be that teacher who sued MOE all over again.

          Scenario one - Overheard at McD drive-in - young girl asked her bf: \"why stupid McD breakfast extend only until 12 noon during weekends? We were out all night and I want to sleep in and eat breakfast at 3pm, cannot meh?\"

          Breakfast at 3pm ? :x This girl is beyond hope...she is the stupid one, not McDonald's. She should be eating TUNCH - lunch and tea.

            hahaha, Last weekend, I wanted to buy a lunch meal for my gal at 1130 and McD told me, sorry , breakfast ends at 12pm on weekends. I was like, why? used to be 11am right? Why would anyone buy breakfast at 11 plus? Now I really see the generation gap. The early bird which catches the worm is dead. :rotflmao:

              I wouldn't be eating breakfast meal at 11am...would prefer something 'heavier'.

                    This 'sleep late and wake up late' syndrome seems to be the lifestyle of many youngsters nowadays..many of my friends' teenaged kids are doing that...they give the excuse that they are the generation Y and it's their lifestyle...We need to accept their way of living! :?


                    I, for one, will not buy this argument... I still believe in 早睡早起,身体好!

                    This lifestyle will likely to take its toll on the youngsters' health in the years to come :lol:

                      I'm on the side of Darren's friends (Darren's case)


                      I mean, the family does NOT want pictures to be taken, and it's a private affair. The parents have the say over what theyw want to do. The reporters have no right to infringe personal space, just for their pittance of money. If that's their mindset, then they are a bit :siao:

                      Heartless people, reporters. This reminds me of Princess Diana. Paparazzi chasing them on motorcycles, that's why Henri Paul was going faster than usual. And when the reporters saw Diana, Dodi Fayed, and Henri Pal dying and whispering for help, they didn't do anything, they just took pictures. If I were there, I would obviously help Di first. Anybody with brains would do that.

                      Sometimes I feel reporters are not human, they just do any dirty work for $$$$....
