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 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 light-speed processing ....and," pausing to take
another drink of beer.
The Senior took advantage of the break in the student's litany and said,
"You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were
young........so we invented them. Now, you arrogant little nincompoop,
what are you doing for the next generation?"
The applause was resounding...
