"Those gosh durned kids today, with their tight pants and their Tic Tac videos. All they want to do is wake up at noon to smoke the weed and listen to that dirty hip hap music. In MY day we went work at 5 AM until 10 PM every day for 10 cents an hour. We got ulcers, heart attacks and nervous breakdowns, and many of us were dead by 60. But you know what? We liked it that way! Now, get off my lawn, you dirty hippies!"

Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife

Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah.

And you try and tell the young people of today that ... they won't believe you
