It's really nice that baconfest is 21+. I wish every public place was 21+

  • That would have made MV experience much different

  • I wish America, like every other civilized nation in the world, grew some balls and stopped treating its 18-21 year-olds as some piece of uncivilized shit. (It turns out people are really good at following the standard you set for them -- by setting the standard for one specific activity to an age inconsistent with the other standards you create a special class which is fueled by rebellion, anger, and resentment)

  • I agree. But I was speaking more toward the nice lack of children, strollers, etc at the fest. 18+ would've been just as well.

  • hahahahah (sorry, the rebellion, anger, and resentment got the best of me again)

  • Brett, a fair percentage of 18-21 year olds, and 18-29 year olds also quite frequently, are pieces of uncivilized shit.

  • ...or maybe, just maybe, they're merely filling the role those superior to them have defined for them. adolescence and young adulthood has never lasted as long as it does now

  • I prefer the term "relegated them to", if you please.

  • Fair enough. My point remains. People as a whole have a nasty tendency to be just as mature as you expect them to be. Expect and reward maturity and maturity will follow.

  • To paraphrase Heinlein, Young men should be shut into a barrel and fed through the bung-hole until they reach the age of thirty. At that point, one can make the decision about whether to let them out or permanently drive in the bung.

  • Heh. You said bung hole. (Also ... I am 32)

  • Yes, we let you out on account of good behavior. We likely wont decide the same in Neese's case.

  • To quote Jefferson: "The reflections that the boys of this age are to be the men of the next; that they should be prepared to receive the holy charge which we are cherishing to deliver over to them; that in establishing an institution of wisdom for them, we secure it to all our future generations; that in fulfilling this duty, we bring home to our own bosoms the sweet consolation of seeing our sons rising under a luminous tuition, to destinies of high promise; these are considerations which will occur to all."

  • Jefferson had lots of time for deep ruminations like this while the day to day work was done by his six hundred slaves.

  • irrelevant ad hominems are always fun!

  • in any case. We're missing the point. Crying babies and strollers are annoying.

  • Spoken like a non-breeder.

    Christian Renaud posted

  • I wish everywhere was 30+
