‘Why should I respect elders if they do not deserve it?’ — Singaporean
#31

Seniors are seniors. They are from another generation. They do things differently sometimes. 
Younger generation think too highly of themselves. 
As a senior myself, I felt it sometimes. They look at you, think u are illiterate. 
Speaks to u in dialect with a can't be bothered attitude.
