I'm 25
I get a weird creepy feeling about "adults" whose date of birth is in the 1980s. It can't possibly be! Grown adults who can smoke drugs and have sexual intercocks... who were born in 1985! Illogical.

I become dismayed when I find out that rich successful celebrities are my age or younger. Partly it's because everyone is younger in the media now -- in the past TV presenters had to be in their 30s or 40s, but now they're *supposed* to be about 20. It makes me go, "Jeez, they're a few years younger than me and look at what they've achieved. Was I supposed to be fighting for a 50k media career when I was 20??"

MTV became an irritating noise. That's not worrying - that's just pop music turning to dance/R&B shite, and I'd feel the same if I was a kid. What *is* worrying is that MTV2 is unwatchable too... it's too cool for me. It always has that Australian guy on a couch with some band, and they NEVER SAY WHO THE OBSCURE NEW BAND IS, BECAUSE YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO KNOW. And it annoys me that the bands always look bored and stoned, and they slouch and mutter. I want to say to them, "Come on guys, make an effort, you're on TV."

I have started using semi-colons in sentences; and I almost know how to use them.

I have become a volunteer member of the Apostrophe Police. The internet is under arrest.

And don't get me started on "loose/lose".

I'm really excited about Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, but on message boards for the game there are lots of people writing: "omg my mom won't buy teh game 4 me cuz im still grounded :( :( :( "
