Jon Stewart Commencement Address

I really enjoyed reading Jon Stewart's speech. I've been to a few college graduations now for my older siblings and the commencement speeches are usually so boring to sit through. While I was reading this, however, I kept wishing that any of the torturous ceremonies I attended with my family had featured an address like this one. I liked the sarcastic undertone of his jokes and thought they were all really funny. He poked fun at the students and himself and the world we live in while still bringing up some serious issues. He says that his generation broke the world and jokes about it saying "we heard a kind of pinging noise,and,uh, the damn thing just died on us." But on a more serious note he got the point out that he had faith in these students and their generation to fix the world. I loved his quote "Love what you do. Get good at it. Competence is a rare commodity in this day and age. And let the chips fall where they may."  He gave some good advice and was pretty entertaining in doing so.
