A Senior Speaks Out Goofy Stuff / Back Home
Thanks to Jeff for sending this one!
A very
self-important college freshman attending a recent football
game, took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next
to him why it was totally impossible for the older generation to
understand his generation. "You grew up in a different world, actually
an almost primitive one" the student said loud enough for many of those
nearby to hear. "The young people of today grew up with television, jet
planes, space travel, man walking on the moon, our spaceships have
visited Mars. We have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars,
computers with DSL, BPS, light-speed processing .....and so many other
conveniences." pausing to take another drink of beer.
The Senior took advantage of the break in the student's litany and
said, "You're absolutely right, son. It was different. Times have
changed. We didn't have all those things when we were young, .......
So we invented them. Now, you arrogant little shit, just what are you
doing for the next generation?"
The applause was resounding .... I love senior citizens!
