This was inspired by NeantHumain's Neurohierachy post.
Note: this post is a JOKE. It does not reflect my actual views.

When I take over the world, this is how society will be structured. This is only the first draft, so many people will be missing.

CATS: Served by all.
Aspergerians: Specialist work, and getting things done. Also, intelligent conversation.
Neurotypicals: Mindless drone work.
Teenyboppers: Reeducation in the hope that they can start thinking for themselves and become productive members of society.
TEENYteenyboppers: (those people who not only follow what everyone else does and think everyone else should, but also call anyone who deviates even slightly from what they think is normal a freak (or worse)): beyond redemption. Punishment.

I know this is a joke, but I hate labels like "teenybopper". I think people are too quick to jump to the conclusion that someone is a poser just because they have similar tastes to other people their age. I think these people are just finding themselves. It's all a part of growing up.

Agreed. I won't even move my cat if he's taking up too much space on my bed so that I have trouble falling asleep.

My cat (Sugar) chews me out for even shifting the couch a bit when I sit next to her, lol. And of course I apologize.

Yeah people take it too far. Just because for example, I like Linkin Park's music, apparently I'm just as dumb as the idiots who listen to it because it's fed to them.

I don't have a problem with punishing teenyboppers as long as you get your facts right and don't wrongly accuse people. Under that circumstance, teenyboppers can be treated in whatever way you like. Who's a teenybopper isn't defined by what taste in things you have, but why you have them. A lot of the trends are started by normal people who at the time were being themselves, often the kids the teenyboppers today beat up.

Yeah, I'm not denying that people like that exist. I just don't like it when people overgeneralize.

And yes, cats rule all. :D

Of course. I have no problem with people liking things that happen to be in fashion because they like them. It is the attittude that one should like what one's friends like, solely because everyone likes it, that annoys me. People should make their own decisions; not blindly follow others.

I heartily agree with the new Heirarchy. I'd say that cats should rule the Earth, but thats superfluous because they clearly already do.

They don't quite rule it just yet. They would have been completely and clearly in charge years ago, but they all declared war on every other cat because they couldn't agree on who was to be the supreme leader.
