  1. I liked this poem and the video along with it, it was powerful and made me laugh because my generation really does speak like that. I think he was just saying that we need to speak with confidence and say what we mean and how we feel with authority and confidence, and not delcare things as if they were questions. I did think the 3D picture was cool and i think the title of the site related to us also.. sometimes.

  2. i liked this poem a lot and i agree that it is on the area we have been discussing in class . the poem was very inspiring moving and powerful coming off. i think he should share it with the world it has such a good message to it . the picture on the other had was amazing i have no idea how he did it . i really wonder how things will be when it comes to the advancement of 3d in the near future .

  3. Ithought the poem was great.It is true that we need to change how we speak because it can affect the message being given.Writing and talking in eubonics also doesnt help in advancing our generation.The picture was cool, it will be amazing to see th advancement of 3d technology in the near future,and the picture does decribe us well.

  4. i liked the poem alot i mean we all do talk like that i am probably going to talk like h did in the poem its self. But i agree with him he has a point we should try to sound proffecional and make sure our grammer is correct so we dont just end up sounding like a fool. But we also should talk somewhat like society there needs to be ahppy median were we can talk like society so they may be able to understand us and talk proffecionaly so that we dont sound like a bunch of idiots also the picture was cool it hurt my eys tho if furture technology was like that all the time i wouldnt be able to look at anything

  5. I really liked this poem. Sadly, the satire is true. Our generation has a tendency to be lazy, not use correct grammer, put in unnecessary words, and so on. I do find it funny though, because right before I read the poem I was reading a post on Facebook that read: Person 1 - "Heyyyyy wuttt er eww doin" Person 2 - "Getting ready to throw a dictionary in your face." Haha :) Also, the 3D image was interesting. Very creative.

  6. The poem was pretty funny but true. He was saying how our generation doesnt really stand for anything. That we are just goin through the motions. He then challenged the viewer to start speaking for what we believe in. and speak it with authority. I liked the 3D picture. but it hurt my eyes.

  7. i liked the poem it was kinda funny. What he said was the simple truth because our generation speaks without confidence making most of our staments sound like questions and that kinda makes us sound like idiots sometimes. And the picture was kinda cool it makes me wonder how technology has grown and that's just pretty cool.

  9. The poem is funny, but it is sad that it is true. Nowadays our generation believes in things they know nothing about but believe in those things because they do not want to challenge the authority of the world or be different. The 3D picture was weird, but I still liked it.

  10. I thought the poem was pretty funny. It was actually pretty true about how people in our generation talk sometimes. We need to speak with authority like he said. I also liked the 3d picture, it was pretty cool.
