      +Elaina M (Zimmit) this is completely generalization! As theater kids, my friends and I took our play seriously. We had rehearsals that lasted until 10 PM (this was near AP testing weeks and most of us have at least 3 AP classes). We didn't do sketches like these since they are not theater performances (more in form of contemporary arts mix w theatry). It is kinda stupid just going around generalizing shits you know nothing about. People in this world man.. Think they are ALL better than others. Smh

      I know this comment wasn't meant to be offensive in the slightest and I feel like a bit of a dickhead for getting irritated by it, so sorry, but not all teenagers are like anything. People overgeneralise a lot of age groups, but I feel like teenagers probably get it the worst (besides perhaps elderly people). A lot of people I know are teenagers and they're the best, most creative, intelligent, open-minded people I've ever met, and it just kind of irritates me when people lump the entire age group together, because yes, a lot of teenagers are like this, but not all of them. If you're not a teenager, you can't really know what an 'accurate representation' of them is at all (unless you have a kid that age, I guess, so correct me if I'm wrong).
