oh yes.. had some great debates with teenagers

I've been driving for 35 years, yet said teenagers think they are a better driver than me. So i point out that if you'd been practising piano for 35 years then you might just be better than someone who's been practising for a year.
They don't get that concept....

freinds son flooded their house last week, was soaking soccer boots in laundry trough, left water running then watched a netflicks movie.... ruined a floating floor and 3 rooms of carpet. extremely lucky for him his mother subscribes the the modern parenting practices. if he was my young bloke he would be uncomprtable sitting down for a week!

when i lived in wellington some young teen took his dad's flash 4WD for a drive down the beach while they were overseas.

yep, you guessed it, got it bogged below the high tide mark and double unlucky for him the photographer for the city newspaper got a photo of it.
so not only did he completely write off an $80k wagon, 300k people saw what an idiot he was !

" floating floor " Ah, the irony.

Which puts a lovely end to the special folk who reverse park

 

[ferball]

well it sort of says" I know what you like, but you choose something more specific"
if we give cash to the young ones then they spend it on crap, if we give a voucher, then at least they get something better than a bag of lollies and a six pack of energy drinks

"Bag of lollies"

"energy drinks"

 

[ferball]

funny that, the ones i know know everything.

When I was 18 my old man knew nothing. i couldn't believe how much he learned in the next 3 years.
