Classic Books Re-packaged

[Ya Sam]

Hardly a representative of that generation may appear on the P-list.  I did 
not mean simply the contemporaries of Beavis and Butthead, but rather those 
whose values these characters appear to epitomise: munching popcorn before 
TV screen and occasionally leafing through a comic book, that looks more 
like  Beavis and Butthead generation to me.
