Teenage Boys Generally Refuse To Clean Their Rooms, But They Have Been Known To Rifle Through The Trash For Musical Instruments

Off-topic, but there really is no excuse for the way your average passerby is dressed in the United States.

  1. “Off-topic, but there really is no excuse for the way your average passerby is dressed in the United States.”

    Does this mean I can’t wear my flip flops, jeans shorts, neon fanny pack and sleeveless “1 Tequila, 2 Tequila, 3 Tequila, Floor” shirt? Forget that man, I’m staying home and watching “Survivor: Detroit.”

  2. It’s not just the clothes, it’s how people carry themselves. They slump, slouch and shuffle along as though it’s a struggle to lift their feet. For many, the clothes wouldn’t look half so bad if they carried themselves with dignity. But yes, for some outfits, even that wouldn’t help…

    Also, these kids are awesome. Thanks in no small part to this blog, I can’t wait ’til the day my boy complains that he’s bored. I plan to tell him to go create something, discover something or play something, and if he can’t do any of that he can help me clean instead.

  3. Rule #1 For When Passing By Street Musicians: If the Musicians appear to be earnestly here for their music, and not just some drugged out hippies who have no other talent than to play a stupid sitar on the street corner, then drop a buck or two into their up-turned hat.

    I mean….Srsly, folks. It is obvious that these kids worked to get to that sidewalk. Don’t make them go home empty-handed.
