Spoiled People

[tropicsgoddess]

Getting spoiled is nice, spoiled rotten, hell yeah! Having a rotten entitled attitude, hell no! I can't stand spoiled people. They think that they own the world and that at the snap of their fingers people bow to them, kiss their ass and cater to their whims. They stick their nose up at anything that is "beneath them" because they're too good for that. Fuck off. So what if you have money, power, cars and all that crap. That doesn't mean jack. Money can buy you Gucci, Jacob The Jeweler or a Maserati but it can't buy class, good morals and inner beauty. You're not Scarface, the world isn't yours. Get off your ass and do work! Your enablers I would like to slap them with a frozen trout for enabling such horrid values and behaviors in them. Seriously, get a clue at the monstrosities that were made from enabling addictions and dependencies.

What brought this on?

[telecom_goddess]

Who knows what brought it on but I agree 100 percent.

[XCashier]

I agree with the rant in the OP too. And it sounds like there's an interesting backstory there.

This is why I won't watch pretty much anything on MTV as things like my super sweet 16 make me extremely pissed off. I mean the one girl was pissed off that her dad was buying her a used ultra luxury premium sports car that USED cost about 300K and that he most not really lover her. Seriously you spoiled little bitch, that is enough too feed a shit ton of starving people, more than the average family makes in SEVERAL years, and what because she turning 16 she deserves it?

God my cousins are like this. Just try to come up with something to get them for birthdays and holidays, you can't. They whine about the least amount discomfort. They have to go get something out of the other room, wont do it. Someone wont do something for them they will cry to their father.

One turned 16 she got a new car, the other got huge ass TV for her room so she wouldn't feel bad. And of course they are better then everyone.

That reminds me of a girl who got a razor scooter on her brothers B-day "because daddy knew I was gonna bitch till I got one too"

[LexiaFira]

agree with this because on dad's side of the family the one uncle and his family.
He worked hard to get where he is as did his wife yet when they had kids they spoiled them rotten under the excuse they wanted them to have what they didn't. Ok, the nice house and nice things are one but any time little preciouses are in trouble who do they go to to bail them out? mumsie and dadikins. who else. And like fools they bail their kids out or cave to their demands and then wonder why the rest of the family avoids them.
They are rude manner-less spoiled kids who unlike their parents don't understand the value of earning what you have instead of handouts

While killing 15 minutes in the breakroom this morning, I saw a Good Morning America piece on how expensive proms are getting.

We're talking dresses costing many thousands of dollars. One sequined $6K gown was described as being bought because the wearer wanted to look like she had been "dipped in Elmer's glue and rolled in sequins."

Might not necessarily be the same thing, but the whole time I was thinking "how can the parents afford this, and are they being similarly spoiled in other aspects of their lives?"

Ye gads, Irv. Just 6-7 years ago when I was of prom age, the spoiled kids were getting dresses that were several hundred dollars and getting Hummer limos to take them to prom.

We did the limo thing, but it was a large group of us, so the cost really wasn't that bad. But all in all it was a total waste of my money because my date/gf decided to flake out on me.

I really don't remember much about prom except the cost of renting a tux, the cost of dinner, the cost of the limo, the cost of after prom.

[blas87]

The limo thing is great when everyone chips in. When I was younger, it was the richy rich parents footing the bill.

Last weekend, bf and I wanted to eat at Noodles and Company, but it was bombarded with prom kids. Our Noodles and Company is the size of a small apartment, so there was no way we were going to be able to eat there.

We figured those were the kids who had to pay for all their own stuff.

[boringscreenname]

I love Noodles and Company! I'm going to have to drag my husband and kids there again soon. Anyway back on topic now.

My husband has a cousin who is the epitome of spoiled rotten little rich girl. I blame (at least partially) her mom, because her mom is a former beauty queen, and she took the kid out shopping all the time.

The kid refuses to wear anything but designer clothes, always has some ridiculous hairstyle that she probably paid hundreds of dollars for, is always wearing high heels, accessories, and make-up. Now don't get me wrong I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with that, it's not my style but whatever. It's her attitude that goes along with it.

It's obvious that she thinks of me as inferior because I'm a plain jane type of person. I wear jeans and t-shirts, never really use make up and have a basic (but decent haircut). At family functions she refuses to speak to me, or even engage in polite conversation.

She also went to school in the wealthy part of town. My husband overheard a conversation she was having where she stated that she only associated with kids from her school and kids from any of the other multiple schools in the city were low lifes and trashy. That got my husband's hackles up because he went to one of the other schools in the city, so he asked if she implied that she thought he was trashy and low life. She said of course she didn't mean him (*eyeroll*).

She actually moved out of her mom's house and back in with her dad (they are divorced), because her mom actually expected her to get a job. She knew her dad wouldn't make her so she ran crying to him. While she was living with her dad she was bouncing from boyfriend to boyfriend, then got pregnant when she was 18. She had the baby and now her and the kid's dad have already split and their kid is only 4 months old.

She had a job (not sure if she still does or not), at one of those check cashing and payday loan places. Within a week of working there she was complaining about how she needs a new job because all of her co-workers and customers are trashy and she can't stand any of them.

I understand that it's not a glamorous job, and I certainly have my share of co-workers and people I interact with that I don't like. But I don't bitch about it on Facebook, I'm an adult, I deal with the situation. Plus given that she's only a high school graduate, 19, has practically no work history, and a baby to support, that she even has a job in this economic situation, instead of bitching about the one she has.

People were pretty spoiled back home. Most people had cars bought for them, and they weren't used cars. I had one friend who got a BMW for her 17th birthday (the age for license in NJ). She didn't like it so she had her parents trade it in for a mercedes benz. Another girl's family buys their kids a brand new Jaguar for their 17th birthdays. Many kids driving around with fancy sports cars, luxury cars, hummers, etc. I bought and paid for everything for my 2-door Cavalier. It was a 2000 and I bought it in 2005 with around 60k miles. Knew plenty of people who had a credit card from mommy and daddy to use for gas and car expenses. I never even say my mom's credit card.

[Andara Bledin]

My mom has never even had a credit card. Nor my dad, for that matter.

Even the kids who aren't totally spoiled but grow up in an atmosphere of having everything provided for them show a distinct lack of respect for others' personal property. I have had way to many thing that can't be replaced at all damaged by people who think that they don't have to be decent people 'cause money will fix everything. >_<
