kids these days

A set rhetorical form of great antiquity in which the speaker or writer deplores the unusual and previously unheard-of deficiencies of the present young in morals, manners, taste, dress, intellectual achievement, awareness, energy, self-discipline, appearance, etc. etc. etc. Often applied ironically. Sometimes expanded to 'people these days'.

kids these days

Phrase uttered by parents and some teenagers who grew up in the late 80s-early 90s when a Spoiled Brat starts to do what he or she does best.

Spoiled Brat- I don't wanna go home! I want to go to Burger King! *proceeds to throw a huge tantrum*
Brat's Mom- Now, sweetie, you know we can't go to Burger King; we're on a budget....
Spoiled Brat- SHUT UP!!!!!!!! I WANT BURGER KING!!!!! *continues to whine and cry and kicks down a display* GIMME BURGER KING!!!!!!
Me- Kids these days....what little brats.

Guy1: Dude, look at them! They're so wtf! They're screaming like a flip.
Guy2: Yea dude. I know. Well, kids these days.
