Part of me also knows that this generation is the least racist and most pro-gay, so that's great. But they have a real lack of gravitas. And they have no taste in music. Vampire Weekend? Can we play some music, please? Can we rock out for a minute? Where's your Metallica?

There's a guy out there who will want to tell everyone that he is your boyfriend. Quit goofing around and go find him.
