Somewhere Among The Stars |
You “adults” call us lazy, and narcissistic. You call us the ME generation. You’re angry because our generation is all about selfies, and snapchats, and tweets. Yes, we are the ones so self-obsessed and it is upsetting because your generation, the baby boomers, are typically the ones used to being self-absorbed. It was YOUR thing. YOU were the original ME generation, almost fifty years now you have been the selfish generation. You took all the money, you soaked up all the government services, and you’ve deep fried a third of the ocean. You know what’s left for us? Unpaid internships, and Monday to Tuesday mail delivery. Thanks to you and global warming, going to the beach will soon mean sailing the coast of Ohio. Even now you’re making it about you, telling my generation to get off the phones and pretending we owe you something. The truth is we don’t owe the previous generation anything; we owe it to the Chinese. So the next time you want to point out the sins of another generation, look at your own.
