    Yeah. In a different age, they would be shoveling manure. They're lucky we're dependent on these machines. However, we aren't lucky at all.

  • No...in a different age YOU would be shoveling manure because without them, you wouldn't have a site or the internet to play on.
    Just saying. 

    Millennials will eventually be in charge of your healthcare. Chew on that a bit

    I shovel manure now. If you count catpans.

    Well Millenials are supposedly "compassionate", so they might not be the problem. It is the current generation in college: GenZ or whatever. They're cold and conservative and only care about money: Neo-digiyuppies.

  • No, I don't think so, Mr. Bromide, that sounds like a fairly silly assumption to make.

    Not really. Who else could concentrate on such small details for hours?
