    It's perfectly normal for kids to shout targeted homophobic insults, try to pick a fight, and then chuck rocks at people who didn't do anything to them?
    Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

        I don't know if it's 'normal' but it's certainly common.

            If only those kids knew what I was listening to before they decided to get on my nerves.

            One
            Nothing wrong with me.
            Two
            Nothing wrong with me.
            Three
            Nothing wrong with me.
            Four
            Nothing wrong with me.

            One
            Something's gotta give.
            Two
            Something's gotta give.
            Three
            Something's gotta give.

                  Speaking of kids, two cheeky little bastards decided, when I was driving into an air bay to check my tires to pull up in front of me and fill their tires up first when I was already there...they are very lucky I didn't decide to drive over their bikes...

                    that's a classic mate, saves you getting bollocked by the garage owners because it just looks like someone's using it for their car.

                      The only reason I didn't was because I didn't want to puncture my tires...do you know how much 17" tyres cost nowadays?

                          Are you kidding? It was dull being 13.

                            When I was 16 or so there was a group of kids (about 14 or so) that were being equally lairy and looking for a fight. Started throwing stones. I was totally pissed off. I don't know why, but I chased the biggest most vocative kid down. Lamped him clean across the face and he didn't fight back. His mates just scapa'd.

                            I wish I hadn't done it, but I still enjoyed doing it.


                            These kids do it to look cool with their mates, and they think the person they are taunting will not fight back. Feign to run at them and they turn into sissy boys.

                                It's just not sport though is it, especially at 26...mind you, I have never had any bother off kids myself...they seem to show more respect at my age...
