So.....
Anybody else get freaked out when you talk to teenagers?
How can a kid not know who the fuck cobra commander is?!!
Sometimes people call me sir...
For the most part I get carded for everything..R rated movies even...
But, I guess when I'm wearing big boy clothes, every once in a while...
A smart ass senior, will put down his smoking hot sidekick just long enough to complete my transaction... "Thank you sir.."
I'm pretty sure he's being a prick..
I hope so, otherwise, I feel bad for my compulsion to choke him by his apron every time he does it..
I'm being sensitive, right, no shit...
Cause I am actually getting old...
The OG's are probably laughing their asses off at this one...
They said it would happen..
But, it's not just that they said we'd get old..I mean, that's not exactly enlightenment...
I just remember different conversations with different adults..
Like my folks, not understanding yet marveling, at my fascinations with some of the silliest things..
Pops once let me get like 20 packs of Now and Laters to grind at school the next day... Bad daddy? Nah, I was a very convincing little dude.. And when I came home with like 4 times what he paid for the candy the next day... Age 7, he gave me props for my hustle... And took his front money back...
Or when I was 22...
a skinny,loud mouth, bad ass, busboy with an afro..
One of my fellow busboys, Ali was going through a late, midlife crisis...
He adopted me, and Tuscon, and would take us to the bars after we got cut..
It was pretty sad.. We were broke, and short on scruples...
We would let him foot the night, and we would take him to our spots, with our friends..
We knew it was wrong, and since we did nothing to correct our behavior....
One night after work, we all went to Dolly's house, one of the servers...
Busboys get off last, obviously, so by the time we showed up at the crib...
Everybody was faaaayyyy.....did..
I really doubt I have to continue this tale...
Needless to say, Ali should've known that post 911, it's a really good idea to keep your hands to yourself at afterwork house parties.... When you're from Morocco,a busboy, and 42...
Guantanamo Bay could not have been worth a sleezy grope of a passed out bartender...
Right, point is...
Something so good, or so bad happened to that dude... And alot of people... That won't let them accept age...
Porsches, botox, skinny jeans....
Gets worse, I'm being nice...
Hope that ain't me hella gray hairs from now....
Pleeeeaaase don't let my kids' dad be that guy...
Happy to be old... Done it all, seen it all...
But still young at heart...
That's the goal... Cause I'll never forget the time I talked Pops into getting himself a pair of CrossColour Jeans...
