EDIT: also, is it pretentious, I can't see why. I'm not good at spotting this kind of thing. Please tell me x I think what makes something is pretentious in this case is the air of grandeur that the author seems to give off. He writes about his peers in a degrading manner and implies that the is better than the rest of them. But, the author does not realize (on purpose or otherwise) that he is exactly like his peers. So I guess you can say that in real life, there is accidental and forced pompousness.
Ah, OK. So it's like a dramatic monologue. I'm not so good at spotting these kinds of things as I tend to take things at face value.

Either this was written very poorly in such that so much has been written over so little ideas or the writer knew it was going to be terrible and decided to go all out on the "our generation is best generation". Regardless, judging from the responses, it's clear the writer didn't communicate well, satire or not.
Example: but rather an imperfect inference from the media I've had the misfortune, or rather, when considering the knowledge and insight gained, the fortune to be exposed to
All could be summed up into "but rather what I've seen from the media" or if you want to make it sound less dull (which it is) "from what the media portrays to a population that cannot escape its influence". There's only two events in life you'll write in such way: SAT Essay tests and college applications. After that, your writing should be more grounded into reality...unless you major into philosophy or English.
Maybe you should come back to this topic in a few years or so in your twenties to realize it's a (terrible) satire of your own self in a negative way.

Geez it's not that bad. Sometime it so clearly obvious that please jump on a hate band wagon just as soon as they see someone express a marginally negative opinion.
And it's not a satire it's a dramatic monologue.

Probably not that bad. Maybe it's just me having read through and reviewed so many of these writings with such style. Helping out a friend and high school teacher, the OP sounded almost exactly like the essays students applying for colleges wrote and made me very cynical of their youth.

Good lord. What the gell is 'sometime it so clearly that please jump on hate band wagon' meant to mean. lol
EDIT: translation:
Sometimes it is so clearly obvious that people jump on a hate band wagon.
And I'm more drunk now that I was earlier. lol
Glad though people managed to get the point!

These satirical blogs are starting to give me a headache. It's way too masturbatory and self-referential. I mean, I get that some blogs are bad. But how does it help to add MORE blogs talking about how bad they are? Anyone with decent taste knows they're bad, now you've just doubled the frequence because I have to dwell on how bad they are even longer -_-.
Just put up good blogs instead. Lead by example.

Satire is more than just saying the opposite to what is true.

I dunno, I just can't bring myself to like this very much. I know you point out its pretentiously written and all that, but I mean that doesn't make it better or anything. Every blog doesn't have to be chock-full of meaning or anything, though. You have to just write stuff down sometimes.
lol mattorn continues his ball-busting ways
