Am I the only one who's noticed how conceited Gen Xers are?

Kid, I don't know what happened to you the night before for you to wake up this froggy, but oh boy.

Like, look up Gen X anthem.

Which one? We had a few of them. There was Don't you Forget About Me by Simple Minds because let's face it, we were forgotten about. There was The Warrior from Scandal, Bang Bang, and bonus points if you just did the finger guns. There was we're not going to take it from Twisted Sister. The title explains itself.

They just are talking about how tough they are and how much they've been through, how strong they are.

You're talking about a generation that was thrown out of the house at dawn and we weren't allowed to return until dusk.

Look at the world y'all left us.

The world we left you. We developed a whole new form of math for you guys. You're welcome. Meanwhile, we had our parents and our grandparents hovering over our shoulders while we tried to learn algebra.

Does that scream tough when you handed over the reigns?

We were never given the reigns to hand over. That's where you're mistaken. The theme of the 80s was greed. Nobody was giving anyone anything.

Now, Jenz's let to clean your up.

Listen, we had to clean our rooms. So, it's only fair you guys have something to clean up.

There's a saying that goes, "Strong men make easy times." Easy times make weak men. Weak men make hard times. And hard times make strong men.

I have no idea what you just said. Is that common core English?

Are we living through easy times right now? Or are we living through hard times?

Every generation has hard times and easy times. Everything can't just be easy.

SO WHAT DOES THAT MAKE YOU? IT MAKES ME tired and I need a nap.
