Grown Ups.

Just this afternoon, we were sitting as a family to feast upon our well, food. And we had the most mismatched topic. It was about food, but not the normal kind, it's those dishes you cringe about even having the thought pass your head. Yep, we were talking about roasted dogs, fried spider legs, boiled eyes. 
I was kidding bout the last one, but you see, it adds to the grossness. And my very efficient sister ran away from the table, mid-meal because she "suddenly lost her appetite". But we all know her real reason, doesn't take a Sherlock to find out. 

But it's sort of cracks me up, thinking about the fact that just the very topic of a platter of very unappetizing meals can mess up one's stomach.
You know what really makes my stomach mess up? This song I'm listening to right now, it's sick. Not the hipster "Siiiick" or "Raaaaad" it's ill. Heavy Metal's not my thing, yet I still listen to it? Okay, forget that, coming back. Is the human psych that complex? Or is it just that this race thinks too much, therefore, we made our brains adapt to our thinking capacity? You see, way back in the dawn of time, nobody would turn green on the thought of eating any animal, not even when it's raw and still having a pulse.
(Hey, it's hyperbole, I have the writer's license! No sneering for the exaggeration)
I don't know what I'm talking about. Actually I do, wait, never mind.
In this world, with us being the most advanced species, what makes us act like neanderthals? So primitive?
Terrorist activities, pollution, our same old lament, along with very graphic instances of assault and all those things.
I feel like screaming at the top of my lungs, ask them to stop for a minute, and see what we've done.
It's nothing new , the whole global warming thing is sidelined, the terrorist activities and all have become back page news and corruption is just something we've just got to live on with.
Stupid, isn't it? In fact, it makes me giggle, they tell us to grow up and act mature when we're hurling water balloons at each other and fighting for swings. But the so called "Grown Ups" are the ones making this world what it is coming to.
Sad. One day, they should let us, the kids rule the world, I can guarantee, we wouldn't have ego issues or chauvinism. We wouldn't stoop low for a bag of money that's not even clean enough. We won't pass up talent because there is another party with much less talent and lot more power.
None of this would happen, if we rule anyway.

So, for once, dear Aunties and Uncles, think of the Generation Y, X and Touch. Try thinking like us, if we were ever mature.

And maybe, probably, there are chances, the world miiight just be a happier place to live in :)
