Mom arrested for not knowing precisely where her 1[emoji646] year old was

[J. Barron DeJong]

sounds like time for another episode of "shut the fuck up friday"

Some things bear repeating:

[XXX-er]

when I was 10 I was a crossing guard it was fucking boring cuz i got the crossing where nobody crossed,

the other crossing would have been better/ way less boring

everyone amused them selves by using the aluminium sign to chop down the school crossing sign

I’m petty sure I was a crossing guard when I was 10…

Like…I was trusted with some minor responsibility for other people’s children in addition to getting myself to school early to collect my flag vest.

I even had a badge! ""

I don't rmeber gettign a badge ^^ they must have had a bigger budget

This was at least one of the rare occurrences where he didn't humble brag about being a retired IBM guy.

So glad to raise a kid in a community similar to what I was raised in. Imagine gangs of 8-12yo running amuck without supervision. Beyond even hearing the deafening Mom two-finger whistle. They might even cross the main Hwy to get to the DQ or Canco for a pizza slice (little buggers stealing coin from their parents I bet!). Worst Karens are usually at the rink yelling at the refs for the peewee games.

Mom gave me a watch cause I was deaf (fixed in g1/6yo) and told me to be back from playing in the woods by dinner. Usually had a hound or two accompanying so critters weren’t an issue. I was 13 and out with the 22 shooting grouse off of the Macleod hardware store MTB special 10km from home. Riding same shit bike down the railway tracks 10+km to a favourite fishing hole on the lake at daybreak. 16 and I was taking the 30-30 before school to find a buck, got lucky and got to stay home from school to dress the animal (Dad was away from home for work even).

My daughter will not get a mobile phone until her 16 B-day. The Horror! If she is not back by dinner without notice, she knows the consequences. Humans are creating shittier and shittier social systems. WTF!?!

Kid shoulda had a non-removable GPS'd ankle monitor with up to a 4 hour delay on the alarm/zapping. Or maybe an AirTag.

Kinda surprised there are Karens in rural Georgia.

We need a like button

When I was kid I used to climb way up a redwood tree in our yard. Some Karen out for a walk one day called the cops and stood by to show them the child in a tree in their own yard. The cops knocked on the door and asked my mother if she knew where I was, she told them probably up in the tree. They told the Karen to get a life and left. People are odd.

At least she didn't cal the fire dept to get you down.
