No Sense Of History

A car tuner I know of has criticized the younger generation for having no sense of history, as part of a spiel about the history of his car.

You know what? Yes you are driving a piece of history. We all do. Yours just happens to be made before ours and you've read up on it. You are passionate about it; great. You know all about it; great. You've poured your heart into it and the ten others like it you've had. Great. You know what?

At the end of the day, it's a crappy little econobox that's older than dirt and looks like a P.O.S. Get over yourself.

And those of us who remember you before your divorce will remember that you're a wife-beating, controlling S.O.B. yourself.

Oh, tough guy!

I put it here because I felt like getting it off my chest, just like everything else I put here. If he makes an ass of himself like he did when he was around before, I'll say it right to him. For now, I'm giving him a fresh chance to be civil and bringing an attitude like this to the party is much less likely to help the civility of the place than just ignoring him.
