Are all of today's teens/20-somethings dealing with entitlement issues?

This is one of the biggest laughs I have with the Y'ers. You guys grew up with gaming systems and the internet, and so that automatically makes your generation the collective second coming? That's rich! Who the hell can't learn to play a Nintendo game or gather a bunch of pseudo-friends on Facebook? The real technological breakthroughs will come from the kids who are studying engineering and other hard sciences and are enthralled by it. Do you honestly think having a Twitter account and an iPhone makes you special? No, it makes you incredibly ordinary.

Like every generation the Y'ers will have a few world changers (scientists, leaders of industry, politicians, etc.), the rest of you will live totally ordinary, mundane existances. Just like every generation before and after you.
I m edumakated thanx to distunce lerning.
