I won't be so kind, the devil in me will say "next time, it will be a car"

Dude, I did that yesterday, it has nothing to do with youth and everything to do with being oblivious to your surroundings (I've been doing this since well before iPhones were invented
) -
I think they fell out of my pocket when I hit the car
-
I refuse to be a member of any club who would have the likes of me as a member

Plus, I'm not American so insulting my masculinity will not illicit a response, in Europe we are born without the "Marty McFly" gene….... apart from the Scottish, who I believe invented it.

spend time with your kids talking & doing activitives (take a walk, go to the park, play ball, etc.). imho folks have a tendency to substitute material things for basic interaction with their youngsters. i'm tired of folks not knowing their kids. if you can't tell me your kids favorite color or who is their best friend, what movies & tv shows they watch then the problem isn't the kid it's the parent. the more plugged in we become it seems alot of us are missing basic interaction with people trying to get that brass ring. oh & some folks just shouldn't have kids, let's be honest. you need a license for everything but they let any asshole have a kid. oh & marriage licenses, has any one ever thought why is it the only license i can think of where you do not have to renew it. i mean driver's license, license for your dog, all kinds of crap, but marriage you are hit. one time while you are insane with love then reality hits & you can not get a re do.
going to write my congressman about renewable marriage licenses & see what comes of it . . .

I think showing something like Friday the 13th to a child versus Jaws is much different…
I grew up on horror films when all the other kids were watching Disney, and I'm not a violent person. If anything, it taught me the distinction between the "make believe" of media, and reality. The only thing I think it affected was my taste in programming. Even as a small child, I thought Nickelodeon, TGIF, cartoons, etc. were for babies.
EDIT:
As a boy I watched American Werewolf in London with my dad when I was 5 years old and it terrified me, but it also taught me a valuable lesson about separating fantasy and reality violence that I think is missing from a lot of kids these days. I'm not saying that my dad did the right thing, as I was too young, but the lesson worked. My father simply did not believe in censorship at all when it came to movies.
I guess I should have read the entire thread before responding. Mega illustrates my point much better than I did.

This is one of the most refreshing things I have read in a while. Good on you, Monday.

My last two phones have used a micro SIM card. I swapped out both of them for cards with more capacity. I like the micro SIM, sorry Ron.

I agree rnr.
I'm not really a fan of shopping at Self Edge. It's cool to see all the stuff there and the workers are nice enough but it just makes for such an awkward experience perusing the clothing while its dead silent (no other customers) because you feel like the employees can basically hear everything you say.

Why on earth wouldn't a jeans store have rock music blaring?
