This is your opinion not supported by anything other than your opinion. You're entitled to your opinion, and even to express it. You're not, however, entitled to levy moral judgments based on others' disagreements with your opinions.

Just because you named yourself Old School in a fit of laughter while loggin on to the internet from your parents' basement doesn't make you any sort of arbiter of traditional values.

It's not about being stuck in yesterday, get off the high horse before it throws you off.
