"Every generation gets to pick and choose what they want from the generations that came before them with the same arrogance and ego-driven self-importance that the previous generations had when they picked the bones of the ones before them."
I am 100% here for that particular Human League tune. I even had the 45 of it at a time when almost nobody bought 45’s. It sounds terribly dated now, but what a great nostalgic rush I get from hearing it.
I should clarify: the song is still great--the instrumentation is dated (particularly the synths). But by the same token, indelibly a product of its era!
Man, I love how your writing invites me into a conversation with my own thoughts - past and present - and the voices of people who've gone before us. If I'm paying close attention I sometimes even recognize the signs along the path and choose more wisely than I might have.

Is that Cormac McCarthy, by the way?
Thank you. It is.
