Nobody alive was in World War I. Get over yourselves.

Just that we have memorial day. Veteran's day - previously armistice day - was specifically for veterans of WWI to celebrate living through what was the worst war (from a soldier's point of view) in the world's history.
I don't feel the need to take that from them.

Kurt Vonnegut had a quote about that. I can't quote it directly while I'm on mobile, but I put part of it on my Facebook on the 11th.

Thread now makes sense beyond some fine pics. Didn't know that at all.
The Great War
should have been
the last,
but I guess
we haven't learned yet.
For the sake of not making
the ongoing sacrifices
being made,
every day,
vain;
we must one day
find a way to stop.
So we must remember.
