…The ignorance of the current generation never ceases to astound me.
That's a line I think people have been saying since the dawn of humanity...
I bet they were saying that in Rome. And Egypt. And Sumer. And probably during the Shang Dynasty.
Etc.
SectoBoss beat you to it.

Well, it's here instead of the Comfort Corner, because I know it's really a minor kvetch/whinge, but I think it got to me more than it otherwise would have because: 1) I was in The Line That Never Moves at the supermarket; 2) I hate being in a crowd of strangers at the
best of times; and 3) I was well on the way to one of my allergy headaches, which has never made me more patient or tolerant, I'm sorry to say.
I recognize about three of the names on that list. Then again, I have something of a mental block when it comes to recognizing older actors, specifically because of someone from the older generation constantly trying to shove it down my throat. Turns out, when I was let alone and exposed to the actors of my own generation and allowed to get invested in them on my own initiative because I was actually interested, turns out that I'm perfectly capable of learning actors' names. Seriously, who'd have thought! /mikkel
I wasn't trying to "shove them down your throat"; I was asserting that they were, as I said, as good as or better than Harrison Ford. I'm sorry if you took it the former way instead of the latter.
