Assuming these sentences are somehow connected, and you have a millenial son (which you got by the time you were about 20), and at around 25 or so he is still uncertain whether TV was invented in the 70s; I'm sorry, but he is a bit ignorant at best.
Otherwise you are being more than a bit condescending towards a group of people, some of whom are little more than 5 years your junior...

- rootusrootus 7y agoI didn't take the commentary nearly as seriously as you did. It sounded completely tongue-in-cheek. But, what can I say, I was born in 1974...
