Boomers, however, defeated communism and walked on the moon.



First off, no you didn't. That was your preceding generation that did most of that work, although I guess yall get minor credit since I guess some of you were working for the government during that time, but it certainly wasn't any of the power players, and really if you want to get down to the blunt truth of the matter, communism collapsed in on itself more than outsiders.

As for the second one, how fricking dare you claim the moon landing, you cocksucker. The youngest person to have walked on the Moon was born in 1935, 11 years before the first baby boomer was born. My generation has a bigger leg to stand on that we shaped the internet than the Boomers do on walking on the moon. If I am more bitter about anything the Boomers have done, it's with the space program. It's been neutered completely, and it is primarily the Boomers fault mortgaging our future on pointless bullshite rather than reaching out like their ancestors did. It is the immediate gratification, and the thought of something taking decades to achieve was too much work for them, so they have promised things 20 years down the road ever since the 80s, and have only taken more and more of NASA's funds, to the point where our Gen X Commander in Chief has told NASA that their primary objective under his administration should be to get the Arab world involved in space, which is simply ridiculous. I demand an apology for that last crock of shite.

Okay, I apologize for the astronaut thing, but I do know that when Kennedy threw down his moon challenge in 1960, it wasn't just the old people who picked it up and ran with it.

probably wouldn't be an internet, or at least it's development would have come years later, and every jack leg in the world wouldn't be walking around with a powerful computer in their hand if not for the space program
