  1. In modern days, teenagers seem to think that they have to dress up in the sluttiest outfits they can find. tdoay at school, I saw a girl with 5 inch platforms… who is she trying to impress? If she were to tell us who she REALLY was under that thick black eye liner, i wonder what she would say. Maybe she acutally loves spending time at grandmas’s house.

  2. Beth opened the electronic book reader, which said, “Someone typed, ‘Beth opened the electronic book reader. Suddenly bright red spots appeared on the greyish screen, and she realized her nose was bleeding. She heard the clacking of keys behind her, and looked over her shoulder to see someone typing, “Beth opened the electronic book reader.” The pink-haired child sneered, “This is starting to get a little too postmodern for me,” and started to giggle, but it didn’t really sound like a human laugh at all.'”

  4. The world we live in. Where science is trying to rule over mythology. But foolish folk still cling to old ideas as if no new, better ones, have arisen. People who still believe in the sky fairy, or whatever you’d like to call god. I will not capitalize it. Dammit.

  5. The gleaming countertops shone with a brilliance of opals. There was no way I could ever live in a place so unlike a house, yet that’s exactly what it was. A house. Not a home. Much too modern for my taste.

  6. the way we dress, the way we live. robots. steel and coldness. a rigidity that can’t be shaken. busted wide open by the post-modern, the multiplicity, the fragmented. a dream, a desire, a cleanness.

  7. The definition of modern is art and cities. Cities are the showcase of all things modern- architecture, art, and fashion. The home styles used by many people are becoming modern as well. It is not my style personall.y

  9. Modern civilization had reached an era in its development where human kind is no longer limited by geographical, regional, ethnic, or racial stigma. We now have the collective power of 6 billion people which live on this planet to help us solve some of the most pressing needs of today’s society: War, Poverty, Desiese, Hunger, etc.

  10. Modern society hasn’t come that far when you actually think about. Racism, sexism – half my class at my all girl school has it in their mind that if they sit in a tower long enough some muscular guy is going to find them and make their life worth while.

  11. Modern art is throughout the world. We see it in every aspect of our lives and we probably don’t even realize it but everyday we make our own form of modern art. Because that’s pretty much all we can do right?

  15. some modern cultures seek only to destroy old cultures. An example of these cultures, I present this one, mine, which pretend to anihilate the stupid belief that a man and a woman cannot live together in peace without being married.

  17. I miss the past, longing to see it’s beauty be revived. It will be, for in order to move forward the past must be reflected upon. Modern, that’s what we are today. Will our culture change? Will our people change? Modern. The future will tell.

  18. …society, im not sure how i feel about it. on one hand its nice to have all this technology to keep everyone in touch on the other hand with all this “keeping in touch” its actually seperated us from being able to have deep meaningful connections with people. we’re kept at arms length with the ability to edit ourselves and not having to necessarily write back. “BrBing” whenever we want to escape an awkward situation. good luck saying BRB in real life.

  23. The whole modern art thing is a joke. No one even knows what Modern art is. I don’t know. Do you? What’s the difference? All art was modern at some point. What makes it so much better? Why do we worship it? In my opinion nothing is good until it’s a classic, and classics aren’t modern.

  40. She zipped up her dress and pulled down her underwear. She was a modern girl , was a modern girl. She repeated in her head what she had been taught. She made black coffee and perfumed her wrists. She brushed her hair and unplugged the phone. Modern, she was modern, she was not evil.
