> [@QuickSilver](#): > > Which is exactly what’s wrong with kids these days. They don’t get out much. I mean, I definitely want kids (and ex-kids) these days to get out for the sake of exercise and enjoying nature and interacting with their communities. But I guess I don’t really care how much or how little of that time they choose to devote specifically to drugs and sex. (In fact, I’m mostly in favor of people staying indoors to have sex, unless they can find an outdoor location that provides reliable privacy and protection from natural hazards. Those are some body parts you REALLY don’t want to get poison ivy on.) ---

Didja hear about the guy who wanted to do his wife doggy style but couldn’t convince her to get outside on the lawn? ---

> [@Kimstu](#): > > Those are some body parts you REALLY don’t want to get poison ivy on. Heheh, at one point my neighbor’s grandma couldn’t figure out how he and his girlfriend both got all-over poison ivy rashes. No one had the heart to break it to her that the field behind the local K.C. Hall was filled with the stuff. ---

> [@QuickSilver](#): > > kids these days The cool thing about any post with “kids these days” is that you can show it to the cashier and get your discount, even if you forgot to bring your AARP card. ---

GenXers are gonna be the most ironic senior citizens in history. Even as they complain about Zoomers not being ironic enough, nobody will know whether they’re serious. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/john-cleese-cancels-himself/954188.md?page=8)
