Pride of ‘not so great’ things

It is strange, there was a time not long ago that we used to be proud of things that were worth being proud of. Nowadays many people(including yours truly) is\are proud of strange things. We have pride of laziness, disheveled appearance, predominance of stupidity, ignorance, contempt for authority and very many small big obscure things. Is this something specific to Gen X? Is this necessarily a bad thing? How could it be bad… Can we not think of it as being proud or comfortable with ones own self, even though that self may not be conventionally thought of as ideal… I guess Gen X is exactly that… It is comfortable with it’s own self image… Well maybe not exactly comfortable but at least it is not in denial.
