Guys are like purses

If you ever see my girls at a pool party in someone's infinity pool overlooking the ocean and they're saying things like, "Her make-up is so inland Orange County," can someone please put me out of my misery? There's a Laguna Beach marathon on MTV right now, and I got hooked for a few minutes by the absurd, incredibly stupid things that were coming out of these high-schoolers' mouths. For example, "Guys are like purses. Sometimes there's those guys, like that purse you like to have, but you don't want to be seen in public with. And then there's the beautiful ones you absolutely love, but cost a lot of money and need more care." "Some guys when they get older, they either get hot or they get ug-lay." " Are you 100% over him?" No, I'm 102%" "No way." "She like does her make-up for 500 hours a day." "I can't believe we're graduating. Like 18 years of 12 years of school."

There are several things wrong with this show: 1) This is actually a reality show, not a staged sitcom 2) How can anyone be so incredibly shallow and vain? 3) Where are their parents? 4) Girls are REALLY, REALLY mean 5) That "guys are like purses" dialogue is still really bothering me 6) Is this what our kids are destined to be like if we stay here in SoCal? 7) Maybe the chemicals they use to dye their hair are seeping into their brains? 8) Is there a distinction between makeup from inland OC and coastal OC? 9) Where did these girls learn math? I am really ashamed for our whole region and want to publicly apologize and assure everyone that we're not all like this. There are some of us out here that try to raise our children with morals and respect.
