    until I am an adult and stop being lumped into the teenager's category!

    I am seriously sick of teenagers who come through our DT. They giggle throughout the order. They can't seem to pick the driver as the speaker. They can't seem to tell or even ask me if they can do separate orders (we can do up to two separate orders). They make fun of you right while still on the speaker, just because your vocabulary skills are higher than your shoe size. Adults do that too, but it's more the teenagers who do this.

    I'm done with it. Tomorrow, I will not even be in that category and people will stop assuming that I suck just because I'm under 18.

    Darn teenagers and their rock and roll music *grumble*

    I'm picturing you with a walker and a bun in your hair. Once I had a customer w/ a T-shirt that said, "If it's too loud, your too old." I looked right at him and said, "I'm too old." Of course, I've been like that since I was a teen...

      I'm with you, McGoddess. I couldn't stand teenagers when I was one, and I still can't.

      I don't understand when it became cool to be cruel and stupid.

      I'd like to say things change when you hit 18, but the only real difference is your ability to vote; a lot of people still suck.

      However...it does get a bit better after 21. At least you can drink. (J/K lol)

        OHHH NoNoNo, to the people who are over 45 (I'm one of them), you will always be a teenager.

        Why you meddling kids, when we were your age, we only had 725 TV channels, cell phones bigger than your thumb, AND WE LIKED IT!!!!!

            Apparently teens have believed it to be cool to act stupid at least since I was growing up in the 80's.

            And people wondered why I didn't hang out with other teens . . . I simply couldn't stand how silly and superficially stupid they behaved and worried about petty stuff such as who liked who and who said what about so-and-so.

            I was old for my time and still am . . .

              You? You're still a kid, then, to an oldtimer like me. Why, I remember when pants came up to your actual waistline and boys spent more time doing their hair than girls did.

              So there.

              BTW, Happy Birfday, OP! Someday you'll be as old as me and telling teenagers that they aren't glomming onto any fad you haven't seen before. And I'll be almost 60 and STILL listening to Metallica.

                      Heh. People sometimes find it odd that someone my age (26) really doesn't like kids or teenagers (with a few notable exceptions).

                      Geez, I didn't like kids or teenagers when I WAS a kid and a teenager! Why would I like them now?

                      I definitely feel for ya, McGoddess. Fortunately, life almost always gets better after the teenage years. And if anyone says differently, spork them in the eye!! When I was 16, people were always coming up to me and telling me that these were "the best years of your life!" My response to that was usually something like, "Then shoot me now, because I hate this!" Fortunately for me, my mom was sane, and told me that these people were crazy.

                          Hate to break it to ya, but you are a teenager for 2 more years. It's okay, though - I am sure you were never one of those teenagers. I hate them too.

                          Happy Birthday!!!

                            Well, first off

                            I couldn't deal with teenagers even when I was one, I got along better with adults actually. I hate dealing with teens today too...makes me feel old :P
