  1. I don't like skorts at all.. I'm with Troy on his view of them.. If I'm going to wear a skirt it's going to be a mini or a micro-mini...With exception to my long black ruffled victorian skirt. If I wanted to wear shorts then I would wear shorts... Skorts kinda fall into that annoying category with those damn mini-dresses that girls are wearing over their jeans... Like come on it's a dress... Just rock the dress or give it up..

    thats just because Troy has obviously never had the tragic experience of his balls falling out of his skirt.

  2. I didn't necessarily mean more respect as in, more respect for a particular person that's 30 vs someone that's 50 per-se. But , you can generally without a study, assume an older generation has been through more and had to put up with more (and created the world we live in... for better or for worse) has gone through more than a younger generation has. It was more about the intentional , disrespect based on age. I its a similar type of bigotry to racism, just less obvious and not as well counteracted.

    I'm suprised that this needs to be explained further, and Im glad it did not segue into a straight "age for driving" bi product.

    and Brian - yes I DO respect the opinions and experineces of a 30 year old more than I would an 18 year old.

    That does not mean I DISrespect an 18 year old - it does however mean - that a 30 year old has over twice as much day to day life on planet accumulation to choose from.

    Yes - some younger peeps have had tons of "experience" in many things, sometimes seemingly to a greater degree than some of their elders. However - those elders still have a much greater facility to reflect and choose from. speaking personally - I saw many things at a young age. But that never equipped me in terms of equality with say....a 30 year old. It just didint. now that I'm 40 something......I'm even more apt to recognize what i thought I knew versus what 40 somethings worth of day to day has shown me now. And the same concept applies to me, when i am in fact that "youthful" generation in the presece of my own elders. Sure we technically "know more" today in terms of cumulative data that is readily available than they did - but acculated data is not wisdom, and it is not on par with social skills, and it does not grant one a great deal of testable conviction.
