Is anyone else sick of.......?

the constant begging for coke codes, and.......

why can't anyone do their own damn homework? i'm not old, not even close, but when i was in school we had to actually open an encyclopedia or go to the library. nowadays kids are blessed with the internet, but that's not easy enough. they have to come to forums like yahoo answers and expect people to do it for them.

i don't get it. everyone wants everything handed to them. is the world really getting that lazy? does it drive you nuts too?

    I agree wholeheartedly...I always answer those with the same answer..."When I was a kid, we had to read books, encyclopedias, magazines, etc." It's like the kids now days want everything handed to them instead of actually doing the real work...I am returning to University in September and I think it'll be a breeze with the Internet...

    Because we live in a society of instant gratification! Why cook when you can go through the drive through, if you do cook, use a self cleaning oven, and don't forget to put down the power garage door. We all have areas where we choose the easy way or quick fix. Just don't feed into it, an education is life's most precious gift, I wish more students (and their parents) would treat it with more respect.

    Amen..........My thought exactly.

    As far as the coke points let them spend their money on coke, if they have homework figure it out. It's ok to ask for help once in a while but I have noticed some of the same

    people seem to ask for help all the time.

    Yes, it drives me nuts.

    i think an analogous way. there is a lot from Nascar that we pass over, reason they in no way teach it, what is going on in the pits, the storage areas, all sorts of issues. Then there is often drag racing, I luv drag racing yet whilst this is on an analogous time as a Nascar race, i do no longer watch it. what's incorrect with back in the Day, the movies approximately Senior, highlights from the NHRA, something race appropriate particularly of the crap they have on there now. Their total venue has replaced, velocity is approximately automobiles, no longer certainty B/S. JMHO

    I am with you! everybody should report and complain coke beggars!! I am sick also!!!!

    well, internet makes kids homework easier for sure but what they don't know is that in many colleges they use a system to compare their homework with internet publications and many get busted!

    Yeah it`s annoying but after all you can`t control what they do.

    When I see soemthing like that I just don`t answer.

    The funny thing is that there are so many resources on the web that it`s almost hilarious that some kids have to ask things here, I mean sometimes it takes longer to come here than just going to wikipedia or any good enciclopedia on the web or their computers.
