Who knew today's youth was so fucking STUPID?

Actually... I've known for a while. But this article from CNN is still funny as all hell.

Wealth most important to materialistic youth

I just love how the guy quoted at the end has the great job, degree, clothing, all that crap... yet still was unhappy. He FINALLY realized that the newest, best shit won't fill that void. Especially considering it won't always be new, or the best. It's a vicous cycle of consumerism that you just can't win.

You won't find happiness in a bunch of stuff. You'll find it in your experiences, your family, your friends, and what you do for others. Take care of those that are closest to you and follow your dreams. Life really is just that simple.

Somehow I see this as common sense. Why is this so goddamn difficult for people to understand?
