Yes. If you want to know WHY they behave the way they do, you'll have to ask one of them.

Yes, of course.

Watch a rap video then walk around your locality.

Then repeat with a (punk/metal/emo) music video, whichever is the most dominant "alternative" in your area.

Notice anything?

No. The teen generation lets media/music control them.

Prolly the Jews.

Kids are too stupid to think for themselves. If it weren't for popular culture, they'd probably be walking around naked with an empty look in their eyes grunting illegible utterances.

Children should be locked in a barrel and fed through a tube until they're 18.

Pop culture influences teens, as do teens influence pop culture. It's a vicious cycle.

not neccessarily since the media and music trends have to appeal to the tastes of the teen generation.
but then again depends on what age teens you're talking about. early on they're impressionable and therefore yes. but later in the years they tend to develop their own interests.

Well no shit. Try and find a 16 year old who doesn't look like some tinsel-town whore. The vindication my kind gets is when they fuck with us and we chase them with an iron pipe. The bonus is catching them and breaking their bones.
