MTV's Jackass Culture

Quotes from various sources

"Growing up in a period of amazing prosperity, with no major wars and no rival superpowers, Generations X, Y and Z have had to scrounge around for initiation rites. And so why not hurl yourself off a bridge with an elastic cord strapped around your waist? The craziness of the idea is part of its charm.

This -- along with military skirmishes -- is what a lonely superpower does to entertain itself.
"

"a culture which champions celebrity bickering in the media, shameless public representation and the financing of seemingly endless states of war is actually more repulsive than eating manure "
