TL;DR: Come to Canada, everybody is nice here.

The meaning behind it is that if you were born and raised on the island, it doesn't matter how long you leave, how rich and famous you become or how much you say you hate this place, you'll always come back to the island.

They feel as if the world owes them and their presence is enough for their contribution. That explains lack of manners and appreciation for others sacrifices. Social media seems to be a large impact on these jerk-like personalities. Twitter is a great way to spread memes and all these glorious entitled quotes to thousands of impressionable teens and it skews their view of reality. If you have a twitter, it's interesting to go through the popular favorited sections and retweeted pictures, and read the ridiculous quotes that scream anything but appreciation. It's just adding oil on the fire known as princess syndrome.
