Louis C.K. is right in a lot of ways: everything is amazing right now and nobody is happy. We don't have the patience to give our phones one second to transmit and receive signals to and from space. We get frustrated when we get held up at airports, despite the fact that we are able to fly through the air whilst sitting in chairs to get to distant places in a very short time. Instead of being thankful that we live in such an incredible time with amazing technological developments, we moan and complain because things aren't fast enough or good enough. There's so much to appreciate and be in awe of in the developed world many of us live in, and things will only get better as people continue to innovate and create. We can either choose to live with wonder and gratitude, or choose to constantly grumble that nothing is satisfactory.
I'm going to strive to not be a spoiled idiot that is part of the crappiest generation ever.
