A very self-important college freshman from Ottawa University took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen standing next to him while waiting for a bus, that it was impossible for the older generation to understand his generation.

"You grew up in a different world, actually an almost a primitive one he said loudly enough for the other passengers 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 for breath .....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 ****, what are you doing for the next generation?"

The applause was resounding...

I love senior citizens.
 
Personally I'd have said that the older generation cant understand us because we've grown up in a morally relativistic vacuum, where nothing is fixed and certain anymore.
 
I reckon it's just because they don't speak French.

Two quotes
Every generation blames the one before Mike and the mechanics
The trouble with the French is that they don't have a word for entrepreneurism
some politician or other who's name escapes me at the moment :D
