What will our grand children love/hate about our generation (in your opinion)?

Also, what lessons do you think will be learned from our current economic/political/environmental/social problems that will be considered common sense for that generation?

 

[spud_meister]

They'll love the music to come out of the present, I can imagine my grandkids "Grandpa Spud, did you really get to see Justin Bieber? that must have so flokiponk*"


*That'll be the word they use in lieu of awesome.

 

[Ned Racine]

They possibly will wonder WHY We let in such an influx to change the Nation forever?? OR possibly how come We permitted(When there was still time & technology to stop it) Iran to acquire Nuclear Weapons ?

 

[Your Star]

They'll probably wonder why it took us so long to give LGBT people equal rights under the law.

 

[danstevens80]

Thumbs up, Your Star.
I say they'll probably criticize us for screwing up the environment.

 

[soccerboy22]

They won't care. They will hate old people.

 

[Barbbtx]

They'll hate if we let socialism/communism win.
They'll love it if we stop it.

The way we're going honey. They'll hate us for very very different things.

You actually think the trivial bull**** concerns of today, of Obama being a Communist is a problem for the future? It ain't... Really poor scare tactics btw.

More pressing things like... Water Shortages... food shortages... power shortages...

Grandchildren: Why didn't these people before realise we were running out of these things? Why didn't they do anything?

Grandfather: They were too busy trying to paint the other half of their country as Communists, then actually getting **** done.

Our grandchildren will love that they can see so many amateur porn pics and videos of their friends' grandmothers on the internet.

Economic - global trade deficits are bad

Political - fact checking is good

Environmental - who goes outside anymore?

Social Problems - everybody will get by with the help of their friends, a list of which can be conveniently kept on their social network profiles

Actually, because of the number of online communities where people work together, I wouldn't be surprised if our grandchildren start to become advocates of anarcho-collectivism. The internet and social networks has caused our the newest generations to be "hooked in" with each other from a very young age. I wouldn't be surprised if they started to use that to create a political philosophy.

 

[d0gbreath]

Gee, I don't know. I guess I'll ask them this weekend.

 

[SingleCellOrganism]

Wait, you guys actually think we'll be around long enough to have grandchildren? (<- 30 yr old without kids yet)

Lol

 

[Jetboogieman]

They will also probably ask us...

What was up with that Jersey Shore thing? You guys were stupid.

 

[Dav]

They will ask us, "Why didn't you guys do anything to prevent the robot apocalypse?". And we won't have a good answer.

 

[MKULTRABOY]

I dont know, I point at my grandparents and say: Haha you thought there was gonna be a robot apocalypse!

(not rlly but you get what i mean)

Then you just fist pump them right in the head and knock them out. Teaches them a lesson not to question the stupidity of MTV.

Indeed. Certainly not like it's glory days with stuff like Beavis and Butthead, now that was a show

 

[mpg]

They'll love us for Classic Rock & Roll.

They'll hate us for ruining the environment and for saddling them with debt.

To early to tell.
Get back to me in 40 years.

 

[soccerboy22]

I do know that Al Gore's grandkids will thank and love him for the Internet. Then they will hate him for his movie which now always gets thrown into a debate about the environment for some reason.

They'll hate us for letting so many tasty species go extinct. **** squid AGAIN? That's like the 50th time in a row.
They'll hate us producing superbugs that infect hospitals to the farm.
They'll hate us for essentially being really bad stewards of the planet.
That $50 trillion in unfunded liabilities? Cursing our names. Every second.

They'll love us for the seemingly infinite supply of porn.
They'll love us for 5GB/s network lines per home.
