'The Crappiest Generation'

Something light for Friday (and Friday the 13th, for that matter).

This is about a month old from Late Night with Conan O'Brien, but it's making the rounds on the e-mail circuit. It's comedian Louis C.K.'s take on how we -- especially the younger generation who has grown up with technology -- have become dulled to how technology has improved our lives. The e-mail that touts this clip encourages Baby Boomer parents, like myself (barely), to show it to our kids.

My favorite part:

Now we live in an amazing, amazing world and it's wasted on the crappiest generation of just spoiled idiots that don't care. Because this is what people are like now: They got their phone and they're like [puzzled look while acting like he's pushing buttons on a cell phone] . . . "Ew, it won't turn . . ." Give it a second! It's going to space! Can you give it a second to get back from space?

I know this will spark some colorful comments. I'd like to hear from the Millennials about what they think of this.
