The Age Of Entitlement

We’ve all heard this before. We’re all unique and special. If we’re good enough, smart enough, well then gosh darnit people will like us!

Try looking up once in a while though. You might be missing more than just roses.

Social Media = Spoilers

Remember when you had to be home at a certain time to watch your favourite TV show? Not anymore! The freedom is great, right? Well, not always. Thanks to social media, your friends can wreck everything—but it’s not just them. Now the shows themselves can do much worse.
