Youngster Mocks 71 Year Old Man

Youngster mocks 71 year old man…to take one last look around campus again before he settled in to

retired life. As he got to the campus he saw a young man studying hard, and the sight brought back

memories. He sat on the bench beside the lad, but was surprised when the kid started spouting off at

him. “You old geezer. Your generation will never understand my generation,” the kid lectured.

“You grew up in a different world. In fact, your world is almost primitive compared to mine,”

the student said. “Is that right?” the elder man said. “The young people of today grew up with

television, jet planes, space travel, microwaves. I can carry hundreds of books on a tiny chip in my

cell phone. We have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, Computers with light-speed

processing, and,” he paused to take swig 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 bas***d, What are you doing for the next

generation?” The student fell completely silent and all the people around them cheered.
