''My name is Jarold, but everyone calls me Jaz, which is a damn site cooler, I think you'll agree. I'm sixteen (just) and I have two remarkably undivorced parents along with a sister and a grandmother and we all live in the same house together just like a TV show. I've just started my A Levels too, which me and Al are planning to fail, which is our way of saying Fuck You to the British educational standard.''

|comment= I have a second hand experience (!!) of today's British teenagers only, and perhaps it's a negatively self-selected section; but I have to say that what you quoted did not sound like a typical adolescent at all. At all. He sounded as an intellignet, articulate, slightly cynical one and painfully cool one. Like we used to be :-)

|comment= I have read it now. It's like, absolutely fucking brilliant. And the anal sex wasn't that graphic after all. I just wonder if making him gay doesn't kind of limit the potential readership? But it probably wouldn't work otherwise. The heady mixture of self-centered cruelty and intelligent comment is just excellent.
