That's telling him !!

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 are much more advanced than people your age.

We grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, man walking on

the moon  and the internet. We have cell phones, nuclear energy,

electric and hydrogen cars, computers, automated manufacturing,

amazing technologies, ...and,' he paused to take another sip 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 *bleep*, what

are YOU doing for the next generation?'

The applause was resounding.

The was a good one. I should have also added we worked hard to get what we wanted. Now a days if they need a cell phone mom and dad would just buy them or a car or computer. I keep hearing we want what is best for our children. But I think it is best that they earn something instead of buying it for them. Get a job and stop playing those video games!
