A very self-important college freshman at a recent USC football
game, took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen
sitting next to him why it was impossible for the older
generation to understand his own.
"You grew up in a different, actually almost primitive, world,"
the
student said loud enough for the whole crowd to hear. "We young
people today grew up with television, jet planes, space travel,
man walking on the moon, our spaceships have visited Mars... We
even have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers
with light-speed processing .... and uh.."
Taking advantage of a pause for breath in the student's litany,
the "wizened" one said, "You're right, Son. We didn't have those
things when we were young...so we invented them... you arrogant
little retard !! Now.... what are YOU going to do for the next
generation??"
