The many myths of society:
1: Success, you can be whatever you want to be. This sadly is not true. Everyone is limited by their genetic shortcomings, both physical and intellectual, and their surroundings. You have a much of a chance to be a CEO from the ghettos as you do of winning the lotery. Success is also an opinion. What does it mean to be successful? To have a lot of money, a loving family, and two SUV's in your driveway, or maybe to be a bum, live on your own time and by your own standards. As long as their is no set definition for success, you cannot be succesful.
2: Love, there is one person out there for you, and until you find that person you are complete. This is laughable. All those couples out there are really the right matches for each other? The divorce rate, abuse, neglect, and Jerry Springer type shows all point to the opposite. The only reason love is touted about is because it is a multi-billion dollar industry. The corporations try to make you believe that you need make-up, fancy wine, sexy designer clothing, jewelry, crappy hallmark cards, and ultimately a significant other because they want your money. Cavemen didn't have corporations, and they didn't have life-mates either.
3ne person can change the world. I myself can name maybe 200 significant people in the course of history, and if you look at how many people there have been, thats less than .01% of the entire human population. People make no difference, we are ants.
I can't think of anymore because I'm feeling so cynical I feel like I'm going to puke.
