Im a 17 year old Asian male, listen to 70s punk rock, 80s/90s hip hop, love old school football matches from the 80s and hate modern day premiership money ridden football, DESPISE modern day pop music ( anything you see on the TV/Radio ) I dont drink copious amounts, but i'll smoke the occasional joint - i feel different to nearly everyone of my generation.

you're born in the right generation because as such you have the opportunity to pick and choose aspects of many other generations which you can enjoy to your merryment.
Yes, that i agree with.
But some of the morals of this generation i really don't agree with, lack of respect, plenty of ignorance, taking things for granted and expecting parents to hand everything to them.
Take a guess as to wether i play on an Xbox
Now if you said the internet, then you would have caught me out
LOL .
So what?
We had Pong!
Although I'm sure Harriet Harmon will be coming around soon to protect my interests as an opressed minority.
Deffo the wrong generation, you should of been born in the late 60's like myself.
There is a god...:D:D:D
Music was good but from the politics sucked, plus we had YUPPIES.
peter went up onto the roof to pray he became hungry while a meal was being prepared for him he fell into a trance , he saw heaven open up and a sheet lowered down that contained all manner of animals and reptiles ,
then a voice spoke telling get up peter and eat .
think about that .
I hate to think how superficial and government controlled things are going to be in years to come.
you sound like a well adjusted healthy young person to me .
yet something apears to worry you ?
What worries me is how the government are becoming increasingly controlling of peoples lives, and our freedom is being impeeded upon, but because people are too busy getting on with their lives, not many people seem to notice.
I.D cards, computer monitoring, CCTV state etc, all in the name of; anti-Terrorism ?
Forgive me if im incorrect, but the IRA were a major threat before, yet peoples rights weren't being impeded on this much were they ?
I can see what you mean but I wouldn't. I know what you mean about respecting parents because I've realised that it's pointless. It's meant to be fun and it just isn't and I do like listening to old music (especially on a record player I think, it's pretty cool) but I like some things. I like the way we can see infomation from all over the world and I'm I do like some music that's on the TV (coldplay, radiohead, ect). I don't doubt that some people around my age do think like that but I've resigned to the fact that no-one in my school does and to be honest I don't care. I'm got some good pals but I think they take some things way over board and I don't really agree on the whole joint think either, my friends do it and it's up to them but I still think they're killing themselves. I agree on the whole alcohol think, it's pointless.
ETA: I'm not saying that I'm perfect, I mean I do take things for granted and I do like messing about but I just wish that I could have serious conversations with my friends sometimes at least.
but the ira werent as big a threat as al quaeda and the rebel clown army were they ,
"then a famine struck egypt and canaan and our fathers could not find food "
kinda says it all doesnt it .
It also saddens me to see the amount of unhealthy/fat people around - im taking every attempt to look after my body, everyone else is stuffing there faces smoking drinking eventually going to be a burden on taxpayers money when they inevitably have health problems !!!! ( If the NHS still exists in however many years )
When I was in my 20s I used to love music from the 20s and wish I was in a Clara Bow film driving my model T. lol.
Plus there was a lot more discrimination against anyone who wasn't white, male and straight.
Have to admit it is more of a secret wish for me now and I certainly wouldn't tell anyone. I love dancing but I'm not really into clubbing that much and I just don't "get" todays society - I don't fit in. I love manners and family values and I am really old fashioned in that I like men to behave as gentlemen and I try to behave as a lady - I would never be found vomiting and drunk in the street or falling out of a taxi with no knickers on or flashing people in the street. I believe in marriage (God know why after my childhood!). I believe that your sex life should be private and not posted all over twitter. In fact *ducks for cover*, I only believe in having sex with men I truly love who love me (yes, feel free to vomit) and I can't understand one night stands and people that go around having (or expecting) casual sex and who have lots of children to different people. Also, I like writing letters and find texting and emailing and the internet all a bit clinical. I don't like swearing. I like going for long walks in the countryside and baking cakes and putting them on my Royal Albert cake stand.
On the other hand, I value my independence. I like that I can choose my own career and not just be someone's wife for an occupation and I think the advances in medicine etc are somewhat preferrable nowadays
