I see this kind of thing all the time. I've yet to drive past a bus-stop and see a kid just sitting waiting for the bus without having a phone in his hand texting away or whatever. It's a connected generation. In the near future we will see injury related motor vehicle accidents related to distracted drivers surpass that of impaired drivers.

Lol @ the class of 2000 feeling past it.

Here's a comment from underneath this article that almost made me wet my soiled, bezzaled posing panties:
5 Extremely Disappointing Facts About the Class of 1890
1. They've probably never had their four humors balanced, because leeches are apparently
"outdated" now
2. They don't know the joy of receiving a letter after 8 months of wondering if the pony express
rider was eaten by a mountain lion
3. The phrase "We have to amputate your leg, here's a shot of whiskey, something to put under
your tongue so you don't bite it off, and a really huge dude to hold you down while you
scream in agony" means nothing to them. So 1840's, you guys!
4. They've probably never been scalped
5. They don't know the thrill of walking into a wall of enemy musket fire with nothing but a flute

I feel old. The Internet didn't exist mainstream when I was in school. In fact, our High school only had 2 Apple computers at the time, and you had to sign up for time on the computer. Wasn't until I was in University that the Internet was available, but even then, it was not cataloged in anyway. Search engines didn't even exist at that time. A search engine called 'Webcrawler' came out around 94 and opened things up and allowed people to actually do full text based searches. ;)

When I was a kid we played outside with other kids cause there wasn't much else to do.

NOT dissapointing. I got halfway though, I didn't care about most of the stuff in the list. How about things that are actually important???
