You guys are all wrong. Young people suck. They generally have bad manners, loiter around public places and cause trouble and have little respect for others. It's getting worse and worse these days. (Now, remember I said "generally").

I'm not even an old person (24), and young people get on my nerves.

This really annoys me because it wouldnt be fair to go up to them out pick them up and throw them on the floor.


??? Older people have no obligation to submit to young people. What do you mean they "don't know when to shut up"??!?!? They've earned the right to say whatever they want to you; your job is to listen, smile, and nod without saying a word. That's called "showing respect". Also involved in "showing respect" is not saying things like "old people never know when to shut up", or cursing at them.


I do agree that old people are bad drivers, though.
... and that's all I have to say about that.
