@potterfile lol for real, Carlin was basically a huge liberal by the end of his life and it baffles me how many people misunderstand that.

Babyboomers. The parents arrest the children for the same behavior they had when they were our age. They'll eat the world and dream of immortality and push us all to the brink of the next war, just to save themselves. A thousand thousand generations of man walked up to this day, to give it away to just one. They won't pass the torch to their children. They'll eat them, rather than take their rightful place in Death. The Reaper comes for all. His fingers will trace your throat but once.

I hate the attitude of some boomers. They say things like why are the x and y generations so lazy? Why are they such fuck ups? Why are the irresponsible? Its not that there lazy its just that you had a surplus in resources and steady homes handed to you while you handed your kids a debilitating debt and divorced parents. You did your drugs had your huge rebellion and when your kids want a little piece of the same its time to put them in chains.

Not all boomers are bad, just 80-90% percent are "useless eaters."

@hhwha1 Well what I meant was Gen. Y growing as children were generally spoiled and I saw this and experienced some of it myself being an early Gen Y baby (born 1983). And yes unfortunately they (we) grew up in a terrible economic period that showed us no mercy and we had no choice but to live with our parents or guardians and basically prolonging our adolesence in some cases. So yes, we are a fucked up generation but mostly because the values we were taught didn't seem to match us.

@PrincessKLS Generation Y are the first generation since the modern era began that are going to be poorer and live shorter life spans than their parents. How the hell would this describe gen Y?

@FunnyMoneyDummy Here fucking here.

@PrincessKLS Are you kidding me? Gen Y wasn't handed down shit other than a fucked up economy that will take 20 years to fix. Baby Boomers will go down in history as the worst Generation to happen to America!

The damn baby boomers make me sick. Carlin's so right. They WERE handed everything. Plenty of great paying jobs without a degree or brain cell required. Pensions, benefits, vacations, affordable homes, etc. Now I try to get a job in 2012. I need to piss in a cup, have car insurance, credit checked, background checked, political correctness a must, tell us your race and sex. For a 10. hr job. Boomers became what they hated. Intolerant, control freak, greedy, selfish assholes. RIP USA.
