My point always is.....you cannot say ALL about any age, class, etc. the work is to get to KNOW of what or WHO you feel the need to judge.
Quoted from the link and says it much better than I could:

"This is only a guideline, remember that everyone is different and not everyone fits into this analysis, but for the most part you can generalize their behavior."

I have said just what you have about pigeon-holing many times on this very forum. Do the words "old people" and "drivers" and "entitled" come to mind?

Believe it or not, every next generation is "hell-bound" according to the previous and or current one. Always has been and always will be. There is something good and something bad about every generation and has been for eons; this practice will endure far longer than we will.

Meanwhile, let's just relax and try to get along. Villagers have not all come from the same place nor from the same generation. We all have opinions and that is great! If not, how dull and boring would our lives both past and present be!!
