Socrates bitches about kids these days quite a bit.

If you go to today's grumpy old people, and openly emulate something their parents would have done, it throws them right the fuck off, by the way. In my experience, they still think mom and dad were uncool, and implicitly think they're from the only generation that did anything right; the good-old-days stuff is just a facade.
