Kids These Days
Megan McArdle on twenty-somethings and the irresistable urge to think that your generation is unique:

Somewhere in the past few years, I crossed the threshold at which I'm now old enough to remember how it used to be. Which makes it very hilarious to hang around people who think that they just invented sex and drinking binges. I was recently amused to be informed by a 28-year-old friend that, unlike the fogies I went to college with, people in his generation, frequently have friendly flings with buddies they do not actually intend to date seriously. No, really? Tell me more. And is it true that the people of your tribe slice the bread before you make the sandwiches?
