    Occupy protesters 'self-entitled monsters,' Carolla says

    Adam Carolla

    For years, Adam Carolla gave out life and love advice via his syndicated show, "Loveline," which he co-hosted with Dr. Drew Pinsky. But turns out Carolla doesn't just have advice, he has some pretty strong opinions -- especially about the young generation, at least those participating in the Occupy Wall Street protests.

    Expletives were flying in Carolla's interview with the right-leaning Media Research Center, in which he ranted that the Millennial generation have been spoiled by Baby Boom parents who treated them all as very special snowflakes.

    "We've created a bunch of f---ing self-entitled monsters," Carolla said in the interview, going on to mimic a Millennial demanding unearned recognition. "'I want my Most Valuable Player trophy.' 'Well, you're the slowest, fattest guy on the team.' 'Why should he get one and I don't get one?' 'Because he busts his ass and he runs a 4.4 (40-yard-dash). That's why he gets one.'"

    Carolla says he believes being raised in a culture of reward for all, despite the amount of work put forward, created the Occupy Wall Street protesters, calling them "self-entitled pricks who think the world owes them a living."

    You can listen to the interview below. Warning: contains profanity.
