Hey you two - the summit was over hours ago!

Mr. T perhaps? Of course, use your CD's and flash drives
as long as you are able. I'll continue to snap my fingers
and be served my wishes :)

Look, I'm an old-school guy, but what's worked for me in the car
for the last several years is to stream music from my phone
over bluetooth. I ask Google for what I want, and she delivers.

Your mileage may vary.

In what way should this affect your fuel-consumption or tyre wear ?

Ha ha.

But you didn't see this, did you.

That was Y as in Gen-Y.

I can't abide their media consumption style!

Theckmah, the village idiot, likes to sort people into imaginary and
arbitrarily labeled "generations" based on some random manure percolating
inside his cranium. He has his petty little lame "insult" names for
millenials, and generation y, and generation x, and bomers, et stereotype
cetera. Many people may be unfamiliar with the terminology in his little
world, with all the initials and abbreviations.
When someone disagrees with Thekmah, the village idiot, he pigeonholes
them into some generation or other cultural group, gives his best (lame)
attempt at a dismissive label, and then he feels superior. The joke's on
him, though, since more often than not, he's completely wrong about what
"generation" someone is (an error which he never learns from, ever). More
than likely the disagreement is because Theckem, the village idiot, is a
retarded dumbfuck.
He's so retarded, he disables the clock in all his cars, so it cannot
accidentally be set to daylight saving time. DST would make his retarded
little head explode, and the shit-for-brains would be everywhere. A spill
of toxic waste. He "can't abide" anyone who doesn't think like a retard.
