Ignorance is NOT Bliss. It's Not. Bliss.

I was in a kind of chat lobby today (online one, a sort of intermission period between two games of Call of Duty), where you can hold exchanges with other people who you've just played with. So my friend and I had just whooped a bunch of kids HARD, and they were pretty sour over their loss. They decide to justify their beating by calling us nerds and losers (the playbook response to any loss in the video game community), telling us we play too much etc. 

I usually wouldn't mind this at all, but something caught my attention. They were screaming profanities which should not ever be repeated, referencing some of the most macabre moments in the history of mankind. I tried to talk some sense into the shrill voiced children, but honestly, who listens to advice given by a faceless voice. 

Some might argue that they're just being kids, saying things which they don't completely understand, just because the bigger kids say them. I'd respectfully disagree. What some people don't realize is that adults are the biggest kids on the block. Children fear them, give them a disproportional amount of authority, and secretly look up to them. The only reason something like this can happen is because the majority of people turn a blind eye to "someone else's responsibility". 

Well news flash motha effah's. Those kids are our future, whether you like it or not. I, personally don't want a bunch of ignorant, racist men and women changing my diapers when I'm bald and ugly. No thank you. I'd rather sit in a pile of my own filth and eat the dust off of my own teeth than have to deal with that.  

So please. If you have kids, or plan to have kids, do your best to instill sensitivity into their hearts. Love from a parent can go a long way. Let them learn the easy way, so they don't have to come home (or not come home, God forbid) with the cuts and bruises of another person's feelings. 

Don't raise an ignoramus. Or else... Someone might blog about it.
