Yes I’m a hater.
Firstly, I sincerely believe that those of us in Gen X and I guess now Gen Y have grown up in the best era of known memory, I might be missing a decade or two during the industrial revolution but I doubt it.
We’ve had a golden era of TV, movies and music, technology has improved at an exponential rate and continues to do so and the last 15 years in Australia has been an unprecedented period of economic prosperity, meaning we could afford to indulge ourselves more and immerse ourselves in all of the above.
During my 20’s I had the constant challenge to decide if I would check a movie, watch high level sport from all over the globe, play a computer game or simply veg out with some tunes, and in the last 5 years since broadband I probably don’t really need to leave the house. I now have all over the above plus I can waste countless hours on the net, including the weeks of the year that I would blow monitoring my fantasy NBA and AFL teams.
Yet despite all our blessings there are still a huge number of things that I simply despise, some things I can forgive and some things I can’t, no matter how hard I try.
Some of these hates are constants and others flare up when I am faced or reminded of them, but rest assured I hate them all no matter how frivolous you might find them. Continue reading
