Hypocrites-R-Us


Dear Powers that be in the Universe:

You know how for the last five years I’ve been yelling up a STORM at the moms and dads that INSIST on dropping off their middle schoolers in the NO DROP OFF ZONE at the entrance to the middle school - that is located RIGHT NEXT to my school?? Remember that?


And you know how I ALMOST slam RIGHT INTO some of those cars on that blind turn every morning even though I KNOW they will be there? Well…um,...guess what I was doing this morning?


Yeah. Dropping off MY middle schooler. On that same blind corner.



Don’t worry. I yelled at myself.

  2. I find it much harder to believe that Golden Boy is in Middle School than that you are a normal, typical parent in a hurry to get to work!

  9. Okay, but that's because there is NO PLACE to drop off a kid around the school for cry-ay-ay!

    Oh and the tick tocks killed me. If that isn't street slang for prostitute, it should be. LOL

  40. Never known Andrew to just pick up and disappear like this, said Ted Healey during a press conference Thursday morning. Wouldn not tell his housemates and his neighbours that he was leaving. He had a cat. Fortnite for Xbox One will get keyboard and mouse support soon. Announced at X018, Microsoft stated that the feature would be available for the popular battle royale shooter from November 14. And if you were worried about keyboard and mouse Fortnite players having an advantage, Epic Games will match keyboard and mouse Fortnite players with those using the same input method to keep matches fair.
