Oddly enough, when a kid spends the better part of his teen years being "raised" by competitive video games (halo, cod, WoW) chances are that socially, whether it be on your vent channel or during an example on conflict resolution in school, the kid is probably far more likely to make an ass out of himself than to act "mature."
As much as I hate the classic fallback, sometimes, it's just not the kids' fault.
Mountains rise in the distance stalwart as the stars, fading forever.
Roads ever weaving, soul ever seeking the hunter's mark.
I'm tired of the 16 - 24 year old stoners that love Disturbed and Korn
You spelled the word "think" wrong. Twice.
If you're going to make a thread about maturity, don't say stupid immature crap like "Homosexualist" and "with an ***hole bigger than my arm I-don't-care."
I just remember to smoke good bowl before a raid....that way I don't QQ about lost rolls until the day after

You may be looking for "hyperbole", and it's just exaggeration.
In any case, I don't care whether anyone's alliance or horde... I just care that there's some (in the eyes of others, not mine) possibly negative commentary about one faction. I play horde, and I don't complain about the Worgen. I'm going to roll a Worgen alt, see if it's fun or not.
All in all, in the words of a guy with a giant head...
