I'm not a parent but if you say "I'm gonna bust your ***!" to your kid and he says "No! I'll bust YOUR ***!" You should probably have your own *** busted for teaching your three-year-old profanity.
Just Saiyan.
The concept of profane language is religious in nature, I have no problem with them using it. There is an issue with violence on children though :| This.
Besides, any kid who spends more than a few moment near me is screwed language wise. I can cover up for a day or 2 but "***" for me is like salt for most Americans, it must be sprinkled onto and in everything possible.
Also for some reason I never remember "***" is a "bad word."

Not spanking kids is how we ended up with the millenials we have now.

It's an issue of manners. Kids don't know when it's inappropriate to use profanity and when they do it reflects the parents badly.
Don't and won't agree.

The grind is real.
The drop rate on currency in the current event is *** awful, but the prices on ***from King Mog hasn't changed from the previous event.
~60 gears per run (~100 if I can get a friend with a XIII character).
160 gears per item.

lulz, I wish I did, I'd be productive (dicking off) instead of doing work. I hear that. Half the time during my lunch breaks/downtime I kinda wish I could just pop in a game and play for a bit, or at least hop onto discord or something.

I just realized there's a swear jar in our break room... well then!
Edit: It's by the gaming consoles, this makes sense now.

Following the thread of your thought then, what gave us the Baby Boomers and how do we prevent those *** from happening again? Because if you hate the way kids grow up, you've got to blame the parents.
And the participation trophies weren't the Millenials' gifts to themselves.

I was backreading and thought there was something I wanted to respond to, but then got to the end and forgot which post it was. Now too lazy to go back.
But I'm sure they know what I mean, whoever they are.

Or instituting a draft and forcing men to hold it in for years before coming back to the biggest hornfest ever seen.

The human genome.
Edit: Seriously. I don't know how it was that some of the wisest words ever filmed were from a goddamn Will Smith popcorn flick, but they were.
"A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."

You can't just lie to a young person anymore and them be helpless to find the truth themselves within seconds to see if you're telling the truth. Imagine a parent or politician lying 30 years ago to the youth; they would have no way to find out for themselves or each little tidbit would take weeks of research.
Yet politicians lie directly to the American people all the time and so rarely have to face repercussions. Many people just accept it and even defend them for it.
People are dumb. Generation be damned. Generational bickering and blaming is just another way people distract from what's really going on around you.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
