Then don't read my posts the first time. MY point was your stupid rant on folk above 50 years old was just that.
I only post on a smartphone and I often do not go back and read for grammar and syntax. And I don't care whether you follow like you want to or have to read twice or even if you read it. My thoughts are out there. If they happen to be my own rant over someone's dipshietedness over elderly folk, so be it.

I'll start it off again, people above 50 tend to think blogs with no sources are real news and will fall for photoshopped jpegs or image macros containing false info like no other age group.
I'm 30, my parents are in their 60's, and every time I go home to visit them, a portion of our time together is spent on explaining to them that the garbage their facebook friends are sharing is wildly unsubstantiated or just plain wrong.
I'm sorry you take this personally, but boomers have been really ill-equipped to handle the (fake) information age. Probably something to do with cold-war era conditioning...

There is your problem. It is with your parents. I am 67, and have never seen Facebook.I'll start it off again, people above 50 tend to think blogs with no sources are real news and will fall for photoshopped jpegs or image macros containing false info like no other age group.

Well it's a damn shame that the mainstream media is refusing to report this 100% factual piece of evidence. I just feel so lucky hearing about it before any of my friends. I'll be sure to tell all my liberal friends the truth tomorrow morning to see their reaction.
fypI'll start it off again, stupid people of any age tend to think blogs with no sources are real news and will fall for photoshopped jpegs or image macros containing false info like no other age group.

I'm sorry you take this personally, but I am ill equipped to comment based upon my parents' gullibility.. Probably something to do with cold-war era conditioning...

Keep it in your back pocket for the next time you make a generalization about the Muslim community...or immigrants.
