I feel like that about society too sometimes but then again people have always thought this way (seriously, I read a text by Socrates complaining about kids in ancient Greece!). I figure it's just easier to go with the flow and not think about the stupidity surrounding us. Anyways if you don't believe me, just listen to Weird Al, he's got the right idea:

Which song by Weird Al is it? I assume it's the " . . . because I got high" song that my friend used to sing to me constantly.
If it is, I've smoked weed and it hasn't distracted me enough. I'd rather read a book than consume a pleasurable feeling because knowledge is better used than blind sensations.
IIN that I make myself feel bad under "mainstream" circumstances?

It was actually Dare To Be Stupid.
You have a good point.
