A stunning senior moment
An apparently 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 space probes have visited Mars. We have nuclear
energy, ships and electric and hydrogen cars, cell phones. Computers with
light-speed processing...and more."
After a brief silence the senior citizen responded as follows:
"You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were young........so
we invented them. Now, you arrogant little sh*t, what are you doing for the
next generation?"
The applause was amazing.......
