I literally had the opportunity to be that guy but resisted in the sake of being cool. I come outside to drive to the store and there's a small group, maybe three or four young people. Nice enough little girls, probably 12 or so laying down in the corner of our grass in the miniscule shade from our tree, sipping on Frappuccinos or something and giggling while they look at their iphones. Apparently that's what kids do these days. I decided to be cool and not yell at them. I just nodded to make my presence known and let them continue to be dumb kids.
When I get back the kids are gone, but they left a pile of trash behind. As I park I see Frappuccino cups blowing around my yard and the sidewalk. Sticky green Starbucks straws rolling up my driveway and stuck in the blades of dried, drought stricken lawn. Even the cardboard drink carrier upside down at the epicenter of the debris. I also would like to point out that today was garbage pickup day and no more than 5 feet from where they were casually trespassing was a line of empty trash cans they could have disposed of their waste.
What the fuck is wrong with stupid ass fucking kids? Does this make me the grumpy old man on the street? I mean, I tried to be cool and not shoo them away and this is the respect I get in return? I get a "fuck you and your free shade" from some ungrateful, rude, piece of shit mini-humans? I wish I could follow them home and let their piece of shit parents know what the fuck is up.
God damn this generation of fuck-offs that we have to depend on for the future. THIS... THIS is why the old grumpy guy tells you to get off his lawn. Because you have no respect for anyone else's property other than your own... and since you probably will never work or earn anything that is truly yours, you'll just be a shit head with shitty things fucking off and not giving a shit for the rest of your life.
I hope they all die in a school bus fire. That might have been a little too harsh.... but was it? Fuck those fucking kids.
