when the senior citizen spoke up.....
Published Jul. 24, 2008
A very self-important college student 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 DSL, BPS, 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 jerk, what are you doing for the next generation?'
The applause was deafening.
Don't you just love senior citizens...
