My generation (child of the boomers)
Advertisements [?]
OK. Boomers, and you so-called "greatest" generation types: sit down and shut up. You've had most of a century to run the world. Now we've got to clean up your collective mess.

"Greatest:" you thought nothing bad would ever happen again. You had the postwar economy and a lovely military industrial complex. No thought for the future, just keep pumping out little boomers 'till the demographics explode. We'll just stuff 'em in the suburbs. Thanks for Korea and Vietnam.

Boomers: had everything handed to you on a platter. You tried to rebel, and all we got were the 70's. Wow...disco, cocaine, and inflation. Nice job. Then you neglected to raise your kids, while complaining about what a, like, pain they are. Thanks for GW Bush.

Now come us cynical brats who are going to have to live through this shitstorm that our parents and grandparents created for us. We've got work to do. So just take your pension and get out of the way. :nuke:

Oh, and I love you all. :)
