    The rules haven't changed. As a "kid", I can confirm that none of us care whether we are sitting or standing. I certainly dont want or expect you to give up your seat. Its first come first serve. Youth-bashing is toxic. Stop judging us all with your narrowminded bias and perhaps we might reciprocate with some respect

It’s all well and good expecting respect from the youth but it works both ways. You don’t just earn it by proxy. The irony is that the most entitled are the elderly, not the kids

    Have to say, I found this to be a wasted opportunity. He came across and angry and bitter, never a good approach for getting people to laugh. I thought it was a real shame, there is no point in a performance just repeatedly saying in differing ways that young people used to be more respectful than they are now - your audience is likely to largely be young adults, how I they meant to take that telling off.
