Rebels without a cause (seriously)
Every generation has its defining moment or faces a challenge to which it fearlessly rises, countering some great injustice which it is determined to banish for all posterity.
Our great-grandparents had, I don't know, like the potato famine or handlebar moustaches or something. Or grandparents dealt with the Depression (which I feel is cancelled out by the 20s, which were apparently fucking awesome, so that doesn't really count) and WWII, I guess. Our parents, so I'm told, fought for civil rights and peace in Vietnam.
But our great calling, our defining moment is, apparently, the Facebook Mini-Feed. In a bizarre display of the cutting-edge electronic interconnectedness of American youth, my middle school girlfriend of all people invited me to a 50,000 member strong anti-news feed or whatever group. That's just one of several and probably 10,000 more have joined in the last half hour. I've never seen so many students rally so quickly for a single cause. Except free food.
"No to Mini-Feed! Yes to excessive commentary about it!"
I'm mourning for our generation.
"I wish it were the fucking potato famine again," Dave Ferris says, stroking his handlebar moustache.
[note: I think the new feature is fucking annoying and I endorse every effort to make it go away, including sit-ins and looting.]

It's Evan.
What the hell is the Mini-Feed? What is this repulsive Facebook feature that I've yet to see?
