Careful there, Slim. You may not want to go there. I do not want to take anything away from the substantially impressive SAT scores that are being reported here. Those that have scored well should be legitimately proud of themselves. They have done well. But while noting your success, there is no need to denigrate those that have come before you.
This reminds me of a story Grandma Lavery told me...
A very self-important college freshman attending a recent football game took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next to him why it was impossible for the older generation to understand his generation.
"You grew up in a different world, actually an almost primitive one," the student said, loud enough for many of those nearby to hear. "The young people of today grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, man walking on the moon, the Internet, and spacecraft visiting Mars. We have nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed processing, robots performing surgery, and..." pausing to take another drink of beer.
The senior took advantage of the break in the student's litany and said, "You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were young ....... so we invented them. Now, you arrogant little twerp, what are
you doing for the
next generation?"
The applause was resounding.

p.s. "harrasing" is spelled "harassing"
