A Senior Moment
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. "We, the young people of
today, grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, men walking on the
moon, our spaceships have visited Mars. We have nuclear energy, electric and
hydrogen cars, computers with 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 fart, what are you
doing for the next generation?"
The applause was resounding.. I love senior citizens.
