O but Dana - were we so whiny about it?!
Think of the kids on Pop Idol who think if they break down and cry and tell Simon how much they want it, it will suddenly make them good enough to go through. They give a vox pop saying stubbornly, "He's wrong, he doesn't know how much I want it, it's my dream" but they haven't had any lessons, don't sing in a band, aren't looking to start their own, haven't ever sung in a choir etc etc. Lazy, lazy losers who think a "dream"makes up for hard work.
Ah, maybe you're right. Maybe when I was the same age as the whiners I simply believed them

We`were whiny......we just didn't think of it as whining when we were doing it :P
On the tv stuff......y'can't reach generational conclusions from that *grins* they have people deliberately whipping those kids up to believe they really are good. Winding em up like little toys then setting them off in front of the cameras. They especially choose a bunch of talentless hopefuls and make them believe they're better than they are....Freak show tv, made to order.
