    I don't get it ...

    when did Americans lose any semblence of class or perspective?

    Why does every life event - even ones which should be cause for shame or sober contemplation - have to be so public and in-your-face?

    It's as though we're just a bunch of bloody exhibitionists who insist everyone around us must feel our pain, celebrate our petty victories and ... pay attention to us, by god.

    Where have all the grownups gone in this nation of wallowing, overly sensitive, voyeuristic, uber-competitive CHILDREN!?

    Why the heck is everyone always trying to 'get on up' on everybody else?

    Really sick of this game.
