Sorry for my "in my day" bit, but seriously, I wasn't brought up to believe I "deserved" a goddamn thing. I EARNED it through work, perseverance, study, and grit.

If I failed, that was my failure, not society's.

Want a good job? Get training and education in a field that actually has some prospects. Want a girlfriend? First, try acting like a normal, decent human and not some pasty, entitled jackass. It ain't that fucking hard.
