Age ALWAYS equals experience. Only the foolishness of youth can't see that.
Your elders rarely give a shit about the respect of youth nor do they attempt to earn it.
Respecting your elders shows your capacity to learn. Thinking of it as "automatic bullshit" shows just how low on the learning curve you still are.
