He did a piece on how my generation was a bunch of whiney, lazy, crybabies who needed to go fight in a war like WWII to know what it meant to have hard lives.

Was that the Cobain piece? If not, did he do the piece before 1996?

Yes! I couldn't remember what it was in reference to, I just remembered him slogging the gen-xers thanks for the refresher, Nick! And come to think of it, I don't disagree that WWII definitely forced the 20-somethings of that generation to grow up super fast (my father is a WWII vet) but to pass summary judgement on a generation, right after one of the icons of the generations offs himself still doesn't sit well with me- regardless of the validity of his point or not.
