					<description>C - OK. I'm not swearing &lt;i&gt;at&lt;/i&gt; you, I'm swearing &lt;i&gt;towards&lt;/i&gt; you. I am conscious that I do it a lot, but it's just how I write. I hope it never comes across as offensive. I have made my peace on here with older relatives by pointing out that their generation made up most of the words.

Jonners - You lost me at the end, but yes. And also never use the word funky without the meaning being strictly and in direct reference to actual funk. I entered that age bracket as well, in the mocking drop-down menus.</description>

					<description>'Cepting they'd be called &quot;NexGen&quot; or something equally ridiculous.

After recently (ahem) passing down the drop-down list of age groups that one commonly sees these days, I can only rejoice in my new-found age bracket.  Not a sign of a hinge either.  Besides which, I can spell &quot;know&quot;, understand the difference between &quot;your&quot; and &quot;you are&quot;, and yet still can pass myself off as reasonably &quot;cool&quot;, &quot;hip&quot; and &quot;funky&quot;.  

Damn, went and spoiled it there, didn't I?

Great post, Cliff.  'Nuff said, innit... err, end of?
no wot im sayin?</description>

					<description>I am 46. I'm of the &lt;i&gt;past &lt;/i&gt;generation. Heck, I'm almost of the passed generation. I mean, generations have already passed mine, but I haven't passed. Yet. I don't think.  Then again I might've and just not gotten the memo, because I'm so out of the loop.
Your comic genius is showing, cLiff.</description>
