Today, I was waiting for my wife in a mall when some kids came and sat near me, wearing band t-shirts. I recognized some, as I was into The Smiths and Black Flag in my youth. I tried to strike up a music-fan chat with them. "Fuck off, grandad" and "Ew, pedo" is all I got in return. FML

I seriously doubt they knew the bands anyway. Like all the stoners with the Bob Marley shirts.

This begins the new world order. Wait and see how screwed ip this country gets when our kids or grand kids take over and run the country.

FYL in the first place for having to wait on your wife. Being female, I understand we tend to take our sweet time and wanna look at every shoe.

Would you want some random guy reading your kids shirt and trying to spark conversations with them? It's one of the things they teach kids to watch out for.

Older folks can usually hold a conversation better than kids these days. Just saying I prefer hanging out with my parents friends over my peer group.

I remember being on a high school excursion and talking to a drunken ex-sailor with an infected leg on the street in Amsterdam. I don't remember what he said, but he was a funny guy.

This is why choke slamming idiot kids by total strangers should be legal. Their parents aren't doing the job and it takes a village to raise a kid right? Hell I wish cops could just taze the stupidity out of the punks they always deal with where I live.

Don't worry, those kids were just acting tough because they were in a group. Try to get a one-to-one chat next time. And don't forget that kids are hungry for advice from cool adults who aren't their parents, but they're afraid to ask. So do them a favor and ask if they want to know anything about sex.
