Kids are stupid and they just get stupider as they enter the
teen years. It’s part of being
young. As adults it’s our duty to
understand this. And as parents it’s our
duty to guide our children through all of the things they don’t wanna do. Will and Jada Smith’s offspring were recently
interviewed by the New York Times for some reason. And the interviewer, who I assume is an
adult, is failing as an adult. When a
kids says something stupid you don’t enable or encourage more stupidity. But as teenagers, Willow (girl) and Jaden
(boy), are oozing the stupid. The best
kind too. The “I smart” stupid.
Time to Snark Chop
On the topic of what they are currently reading.
WILLOW: Quantum physics.
Like all 14 year old
girls
JADEN: “The Ancient Secret of the Flower of Life” and
ancient texts;
When he says ancient
texts I assume he’s referencing a flip phone
On whether they feel time is going fast
WILLOW: I mean, time for me, I can make it go slow or fast,
however I please, and that’s how I know it doesn’t exist.

Exactly. Wait.
You can control time?
JADEN: If you are aware in a moment, one second can last a
year.
WILLOW: Because living.
JADEN: Right, because you have to live.
That is a whole new
level of stupid right there.
On the themes that reoccur in their work. (Work?)
JADEN: The melancholiness of the ocean; the melancholiness
of everything else.
So melancholy
then. Willow?
WILLOW: And the feeling of being like, this is a fragment of
a holographic reality that a higher consciousness made.
JADEN: [bursts into laughter]
Hmm. That’s really stupid.
On, well to be honest, I have no idea what’s going on here. Something about happy fruit.
JADEN: When you’re thinking about something happy, you’re
thinking about something sad. When you think about an apple, you also think
about the opposite of an apple
Wtf?
On how Willow is helping black girls with her music.
WILLOW: I mean, “Whip My Hair” was a great thing. When I
look back I think, “Wow, I did so much for young black girls and girls around
the world.”
Unplanned
pregnancy? Listen to this.
And then Jaden chimes in with his own genius.
JADEN: That’s another thing: What’s your job, what’s your
career? Nah, I am. I’m going to imprint myself on everything in this world.
You mean like a mushroom stamp?
You’re a little young for that kinda talk.
On how they write music.
JADEN: She gets in the booth and just starts singing.
WILLOW: I mean, the beat is usually what moves me. Or I
think of concepts. Then when I hear a beat that is, like, elaborating on that
concept, I just go off.
JADEN: She freestyles and finds out what she likes. Same
thing with me.
Ok this is total
bullshit. When you hear an “artist”,
usually hip hop, say something like this here’s the translation. People with talent and resources take my
money and make songs. I come in later
and do what they tell me. Then they make
it sound somewhat musical and I take credit as a writer.
On what I think is how they only need themselves for
inspiration
WILLOW: There’re no novels that I like to read so I write my
own novels, and then I read them again.
That’s called
thinking.
On collaborating with each other.
WILLOW: Me and Jaden just figured out that our voices sound
like chocolate together.
I’m starting to think
they don’t know what chocolate is
On... Fashion?
WILLOW: I like to go to places with my high-fashion things
where there are a lot of cameras. So I can just go there and be like, “Yep,
yep, I’m looking so sick.” But in my regular life, I put on clothes that I can
climb trees in.
Dear God that is
stupid.
On breathing? Or
babies? Fuck if I know.
WILLOW: You have to breathe in order to live.
JADEN: When babies are born, their soft spots bump: It has,
like, a heartbeat in it. That’s because energy is coming through their body, up
and down.
WILLOW: Prana energy.
JADEN: It’s prana energy because they still breathe through
their stomach. They remember. Babies remember.
WILLOW: When they’re in the stomach, they’re so aware,
putting all their bones together, putting all their ligaments together. But
they’re shocked by this harsh world.
Shaking my head
And they save the best (dumbest) for last. On Education
JADEN: Kids who go to normal school are so teenagery, so
angsty.
WILLOW: They never want to do anything, they’re so tired.
JADEN: You never learn anything in school. Think about how
many car accidents happen every day. Driver’s ed? What’s up? I still haven’t
been to driver’s ed because if everybody I know has been in an accident, I
can’t see how driver’s ed is really helping them out.
Really. Everyone you’ve ever known to be in drivers
ed got in an accident? And you equate a fundamental
education to drivers ed? And you never
learn anything in school? Please make it stop.
That is enough teen dumb-assery to power a Presidential
motorcade.
This isn’t new age parenting. This isn’t a fresh approach to
education. These are two spoiled kids
who think they have figured out something no one else has. This is parents unwilling to stand up to
their child. When a kid says he doesn’t
want to go to school it’s the parent that says “Too bad.” Look.
With the money Will Smith has made his kids probably don’t need to go to
school. Or drive. But if they wanna skip all stuff teens don't wanna do then why should they be allowed to
dump their music on an innocent public? Or
breed? What happens when they start
getting horny. Based on this interview
there’s at least a chance they will have sex with each other at some point. When your best friend is a sibling then
something is wrong.
Teenagers are stupid and taking them serious only makes
things worse. Having famous and rich
parents doesn’t change that. And when
you have two of them who are so stuck on how important they are as these
spoiled little pieces of shit, then interviewing them for the New York Times is
a crime against humanity.
