I am thirty. My grandfather fought in WWII. Just because I'm in the minority doesn't mean we don't exist, let alone that generalisations are valid.
My generalizations are perfectly valid, because they're completely true. YOU are not most people, or most families. You are in a very large minority here, by being over 29, and being so young but had a grandpa who fought in the war. You're well below 5% out of the federation here.
*Final note to add: I specifically said (along with the original post) "grandma's". Not grandpa's. So your pawpaw fighting in WW2 isn't any validation as a sound argument. An old man will marry and have kids with a young woman. It seldom goes the other way around.
Sorry, you have evidence for these bold claims? I've seen many people in this thread alone who are evidence against all your claims, and yet your generalisations, supported here with no less than five claims and zero evidence, is supposed to be compelling? Also, you blaggard, my grandmother was three years older than my grandfather.
Get thee gone.
