Boys that take pictures of themselves shirtless and post them on the internet.
Crossdressers looking for women to give them tips and the fact that when I went to check out my friend's personal ad in a group of 150 ads I knew 10 guys not including him!!!!
What does that say about me?!
Please bear in mind I didn't date most of them but I did date some of their friends and or wished I had.
By the way - friend's ad by far the best and least creepy.
There were some nice ads don't get me wrong but my friend's was the funniest and of course he was the cutest. But then I guess that is why he is my friend huh?
Really though other things that are scary:
Being able to eat 10 EL Fudge cookies during an 1/2 hour of Oprah.
Sinclair broadcasting showing an anti-Kerry documentary.
The fact that people are age are ok w/Bush.
I am sorry if you are one of them but the man makes up words for pete's sake.
Enough politics... sorry
People saying my generation makes it ok for me to say terrible close minded racist things.
Being teased for not liking to eat alone.
Business changes.
People who are ten years younger than me running a store.
Trying to figure out how to split up holidays and make all family happy your first year as marrieds. :)
And finally and hopefully the Frankenstein movie I am watching tonight.

What was scary was the person not her age.
I know a lot of people who are more than capable of doing a ton at that age. Myself included said person referenced in my post not that person not even for a second.
I think the person's age was scary too. Maybe that person who posted above could handle managing a store at 19, there _are_ people who can. However, I would go out on a limb her to say that the majority of 19 year olds that I know (and I know A LOT, from all the teen theater crapola) are great fun kids, who are filled with promise, but who currently cannot balance their checkbooks, let alone the workings of a retail establishment. And thank god for that. Let them embrace the limited youth we're allowed in America.
There was recently an article in JANE about how we're all growing up to quickly, actually bragging about all the stuff we did before we were [insert age here], instead of enjoying our youth, our mourning the loss of it, in many cases. I've done a whole helluva lot in my 27 years, but if I could do it all again, I'd take on less things, and enjoy my surroundings more. I felt so pressured in school, during the dotcom whiz-kid days, to succeed before I was 25, and in a big way. Now I see that was damn stupid, and it caused me to miss out on some great opportunites to just "be" - to not examine, to not turn everything into a graduate school essay. It's a lesson I'm trying to learn as I go. As, I believe, is Caprise.
And again this is why you are my best friend.
'Cause you get it, you understand what I was trying to say and why. :)
I completely agree with the Jane article and you. I don't even want to go into what I went through before age 25 (you know) if only I had had some time to know who I was. But I didn't which is why I am working so hard to do so now.
