But like I said, anonymously stirring on the web is a GenY thing and way uncool.
Why is it that we want to label a generation anyway? The lemon doesnt fall fare from the tree

It is the same sh!t different year.
Is your generation the same as the "bra boys"? They upset a few people but didnt use a keyboard

Being an old guy I guess you laugh at your kids when they do stuff and they think you don't understand, but you know very well you have been there and done that so you know how they think, right!
The young minds of 40yrs ago think much the same as young ones today, we just have different tools at our disposal to go about our life.
No longer do you wait till school to tell all your mate what you got up to on the weekend.
I bet your great grandparents chin dropped when they seen some young person at the beach wearing a bikini or Boards shorts and wondered what is the world coming to

Well I am sure you have seen the actions of plenty of sh!t stirers in your time.
This thread is more about human nature, there would be just as many older people that have been sh!t stirers all there life and would rebal in this new technology and get almost instant gratification from it

Whether its kiting, lawnbowls or what eva, the sport is just a small sample of the greater community.

No, the brain is evolving and can be wired very differently.
The tools you use have a profound impact on life.

No way. As people have become less connected in a real way to real people the standards wrt manners and in general the way people get along, has deteriorated.
Wildly generalising and averagising the standard of living is always statistically increasing but the quality of life is not. People say that man is even devolving wrt attributes that were favourably selected over Eons of time.
It has been better in the old days. It is better in less urbanised environs. A simple test is the survivability of people should you transport them forward or back in time.
