->''And I’m so tired of hearing lies\\
How our parents misspent their youth\\
Now they get old and stay at home\\
With their valiums and vermouth\\
You know we gotta make a life somewhere\\
We gotta get out of this trap''

Parent leans forward, open quotations... and just, you put the filter on, and here's what you hear: "Hey, why don't you go be me? For a while. Why don't you go do what I did? Like, I know you're doing you right now, but why don't you go do me? Just be me! Be me for a while! I don't know why you're always in here being you, wasting all your time on you, when frankly, back in my day, [[ShapedLikeItself I was me]]. So what you should be doing is, you should be being me. Go out and be me!" And you're like, "Okay, cool, got it, thanks."''

->''My friend Faith Salie stirred up a lot of trouble on last week's show with an essay about the phrase "OK boomer", the millennial generation's way of waving away the opinions, instructions and interference of old people -- people like me. I take no offense, we baby boomers are used to being condescended to. We grew up under a barrage of insults form the UsefulNotes/WorldWarII generation. They never stopped reminding us that they were raised in the Depression, they beat Hitler, while we had everything given to us. The [[Series/AllInTheFamily Archie Bunker]] crowd were dubbed "the Greatest Generation". Whatever. The era that included [[Music/LudwigVanBeethoven Beethoven]], [[UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte Napoleon]], Creator/WilliamBlake and UsefulNotes/ThomasJefferson had nothing on you guys! My generation gave the world three great icons: Series/{{Seinfeld}}, [[Series/TheSopranos Soprano]] and [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Simpson]].''

->''What can the boomers take credit for? Well, look. America's cities were a disaster when we were growing up. The baby boom generation reclaimed the cities and made them places people want to raise families. Communication has been revolutionized, extreme poverty has shrunk, crime and violence have shrunk. Prejudice is a never-ending bane, but the baby boomers have advanced rights for African-Americans, women and the LGBTQ community in ways undreamed of in our parents' time. No generation gets it all right, no generation fixes everything. I sure hope my millennial children do better than my generation has done. By the way, when I read this essay to my 25-year-old son, he said "OK, [[Series/SixtyMinutes Andy Rooney]]". I couldn't believe he knew who Andy Rooney was.''
