I was complimented by RickG!

I do think it holds true for the most part that older people have more insight than I do. They've been around longer. But many times they contradict themselves (in the case of my father saying all the Iraqi refugees come here to suck off the system, when in fact my grandmother and grandfather were naturalized citizens who left the US when WWII broke out, had my father and my uncles in aunts in the Azores Islands, and came back when the war ended) which seemed to be a MASSIVE case of sucking of the hospitality of the US.
Anyhow. I think young and old are able to talk to one another intelligently, just that us "yungins" are a bit more vocal and exuberant about the way we say things, which many times comes off as snobby or arrogant.
Most of the times we are wrong.
Most of the times I disagree with my father just for the sake of taking the other side, and defending a point.
A think a lot of young people argue for the sake of arguing: I do that alot.
Just have fun..and keep it clean.
