personal violence on the rise (Score:2, Funny)

by jmm (276)

I've heard it expressed by many people in many forms (e.g. "things were so much better in the past") that I'm considering using personal violence as a means to wake those sad people.

People never used to get so upset and threatening in the old days.

  You know, now that you mention it, you're right. People were so much more neighborly and considerate when I was growing up. I remember playing stick ball in Old Man Wither's yard while Aunt Ethel made her famous pink lemonade. People were good to each other in those days, you know?
  Oh wait -- I'm thinking of the Waltons again! Man, that metal plate in my head really does funny things to my memory!

    In many cases, it's true: people did used to be nicer, more courteous, etc. Life was simpler, we had less stress, and smelled the roses more. We also had shorter lives and lynched colored folk, and hardcore porn was scarce. Every step forward is a step back!
