Don't Wait For It

In which I hop on my soap-box and get preachy regarding young people and how we've been coddled to the point of stagnation.

Things that I don't think need to be said, but will say anyway:
1) Of course I consider myself part of the group I'm speaking of.
2) No, I'm not blaming our parents for our lack of motivation (although I feel that they are contributors, see number 3). Kids have wanted to mess around all day since the beginning of time and we're no different.
3) When I say "older generations" I'm specifically referring to people age 60 and above. Our generation's parents seem to be as inactive as we are (sorry guys!), and it's that buffer-generation of mass-apathy that I think has paved the way for our lack of responsibility.
4) "Matt Foley, Motivational Speaker" might actually be "Mark Foley," but I haven't seen the SNL sketches I'm referencing in quite some time. Consider it an homage to Chris Farley. :)
