Youths of today..

I’m not very good at comebacks, I usually think of the perfect thing to say about 5 minutes after the opportunity has passed. Yesterday however I was quite proud of myself as I didn’t stop to think before it was rolling off my tongue and it wasn’t even a Blue Peter job (one I prepared earlier for such an occasion)
So I was coming back from the Post Office when these two kids, couldn’t have been any more than about 9 or 10 (and coming to think of it, should have been in school) jumped out from behind a van and started walking alongside me,
‘My mate wants to know if he can pinch your arse.’ said one of them.


‘Honey’ I reply ‘He couldn’t even reach my arse.’

I don’t mean to sound old but were kids this bad on ‘our’ day?
