"Some stuff came up"

[Whateverist]

My wife seems to think it's a generational issue, that young adults in America today are spoiled and full of a sense of entitlement.

I have sometimes thought that I am an abberation of my generation. I am still uncertain on the issue, however I can say without a doubt that I would never even think of doing something this rude and disrespectful, regardless of whether or not there would be any reprecussions.

Perhaps you're not listening to enough hip hop. Maybe more rap music will help you align better with your generation?

I kid. Good for you and I feel the same way. I honor commitments unless there is an important and unexpected reason not to. Those who don't do the same don't warrant future engagements.
