Don't be dumb. Generation Y is who really occupies the indie rock stratosphere. Gen X had grunge, but sold out for Matchbox 20, Dave Matthews Band, business school, etc. We had to endure Bush for two terms when none of us could vote. Your Gen Xers you love so much don't seem to hold the same value you think they do either. Have you even been outside of New York or California?
Sure, Gen Y may be inundated with celeb-utards, MTV and E! (which your generation invented), so if anyone is to blame it is you. Still, Gen Y has te highest rates of college attendance. We also grew up with the internet. We're more technologically advanced and will surpass you because of our flexibility and quick minds.

At least some Gen Y kids know to respect Joy Division, the theater of the 80s and continue pushing the artistic envelope. Who do you have? Tracey Emin?

If we want to start placing blame though, it goes to the boomers, so step down before we push you down. It's awfully easy for you to look down upon us from your wine bars in gentrified neighborhoods. We don't have it so easy.
