fuck the young
I have a horrible feeling that the Johnson election is all the fault of people between the ages of 18-30. As Don Letts put it: 'They used to say don't trust anyone over 30, but today I don't trust anyone under 30 - let's be blunt: today's young are spoilt motherfuckers.' Reared on warmed-over irony, children's cartoons, cynicism and celebrity medja, those puffed up bastards who work in the city and offices all over London are exactly the kind of person who'd think: 'wouldn't it be hilarious if Boris Johnson was mayor, huh huh huh'. You fucking idiots! My generation can go to hell, spawn of Thatcher and Hobbes, with their fucking egotism and 'what's in it for me?' attitude, trained like Pavlov's puppies to respond only to money and to, like, stuff. Wankers, the lot of them. When the housing market crashes and pension misery really kicks in, I'm holding out for the over-60s to be the real revolutionaries...the young are just irremediable right-wing fuckwits. The old idea of people becoming more conservative as they get older must be abandoned. All hail the grey vote! Bring back rationing for the under 30s! Take away their i-pods and Grand Theft Auto and make 'em clean up their own sick! Sigh...
