It doesn't. It's just a mindset that teens/young adults have that they're invulnerable whatever happens, and that they'd rather have fun while they can. After all, Carpe diem is a concept that's a few centuries oldmathexpert wrote:
you know, yolo as a sort of mentality actually summarizes our generation (in 'murica, at least) quite well for better or worse. As in, being self-confident, being blissfully ignorant (of education, news, history, politics, etc), not being critical, doing whatever, and generally enjoying life. Most people in the 60s,70s, and 80s did not have this mentality, I think.FireFoxZX wrote:

Tell me objectively and logically the precise reasons you despise Justin Bieber with such passion. More often than not, it's simply social norms and intuitive prejudice that results in such nonsensical hatred. In other words, complete bullshit.
It is perfectly reasonable to simply dislike an artist and his/her music. It is foolish, however, to brutally slander a celebrity for no clear reasons other than social conformity.

spitting on his fans, writing stupid shit on anne frank's guestbook, calling a girl a whale (do not know if that one is true) and so much more
of course, i do not hate him. i do not connect with him in an holistic way (thank god). i just dislike his attitude, and his music.

Do not fall into this trap of negative attention. The more negative attention he receives, the more attention he will get, and the sales of CDs will increase, and he will be able to appear on important music festivals again.
This trap of negative attention repeated in China.

Bieber has gone down a dark path ever since he's become more and more popular, but this happens to most stars. I dislike him as a person very strongly and hope he just ends up like Lindsey Lohan getting arrested this way and that. The boy has been living a care free easy life and it's bout time karma catches up with him and kicks his ass. The worst part is the fact he still has die-hard fans that fall head over heels for him...it's just sad.Dulcet wrote:

this discussion took a direction that is really amusing me when you recall why we've been talking about justin bieber in the first place
kpop
the term "moba" for dota-style games.
mostly because it says out nothing about the game it describes. what player vs player multiplayer game isn't a "multiplayer online battle arena"?
i think terms like "micro-RTS" or "mRTS" for short would've been so much better. but hey, Riot's gotta take control of everything they can, even the term their game is reffered to.

Well, I forgot to include that I care about the animation style and I don't like unnecessarily long Animes. Even if those are a masterpiece. In a long run everything gets boring. I wouldn't even watch 500+ episodes even though it's my favorite anime.Apex wrote:
One Piece is actually very good at plot and character. There are rollercoasts of emotions through out the show that often result in tears. Its excellence can only matched by those anime as superior as Gintama. If it ended two years ago, that is.Chris9427 wrote:

And all these shitty Animes like Naruto, One Piece, Pokemon etc. Why are these so popular even though there's stuff that's literally a million times better..
Naruto could have been summed up in 52 episode, but was a dragged wreck.
Pokemon and SnO is just crap.
If you really want an experience, go watch cowboy bebop or Farewell My Concubine.
I have to admit though, I loved Naruto. But when Shippudden was launched the Anime went straight down. Everything you see is basically 60% flashback, 30% talking and 10% fighting.
Many people suggested me cowboy bebop already, but it doesn't seem to be my kinda anime.
Anyways, I never liked Pokemon, and I'll never do. Small 'monsters' who just keep repeating their name often in a really squeaky voice is.. blegh.
You haven't watched Cowboy Bebop?
Disgusting.

The first season of Pokemon was good when we were all kids
Rewatching it now can be best described by "it's terrible, but it was good before so it's okay"
