    The first sentence in your second paragraph, when you say, “utter disbelief”, are you taking what I said as an insult towards the newer generation or are you referring to the OP comic strip? If so, I’m not trying to insult them at all. I’m a big fan as a whole, just minor fries from some bad actors that don’t represent the generation, but happen to be a part of it.

      Ah, no, not at all sorry. As you may have guessed, I’m not located on an English speaking country, so I may not phrase my thoughts well. My message was an echo to yours, I was referring to insults towards the newer generation in general. My starting point echoed yours : I rarely hear those, but when I do, this utter disbelief kicks in. I hope that clarifies my point!

        I wouldn’t have guessed you didn’t speak English; your original comment was perfectly clear.

        No need to apologize, you were clear, I just wanted to make sure I wasn’t misreading. I think general when I hear or use the words “utter <something>” it’s usually about something bad or whimsical. Not that it has to be, rather it’s just how my mind initially interprets it
