lol Hey, I never said the Xs and Ys were perfect. We've got plenty of our own problems that we need to clean up in our own time. I'm just sick of Boomers as a whole whining about the lack of respect they get shown. If the Boomers took a good, objective look at everything they've "accomplished" and the impact they've had on my generation as a whole, they wouldn't be so mystified--and maybe, just maybe they'd put some effort into cleaning up that mess and earn some of our collective respect back.

What I see here are alot of individuals who happen to have been born between 45 & 64 attempting to defend themselves against some pretty scattershot charges. Myself included.

I can't help the sweeping generalizations others make, but I can resist thinking of myself as belonging to a particular group identified simply by my date of birth. Thats what I intend to do.

Slap me if you ever see me post to this subject again.

EVERYONE should be treated with respect. It's called "manners".
