MY GENERATION

Some time ago I attended a school assembly on the teenage dangers of
thinking we are immortal, such as drugs, drinking and driving, etc.

For quite a few of the students (myself included) the presentation
made an impact.

However, some individuals giggled through the entire
affair.

Now, don't get me wrong I sometimes looked at the speaker like he was
a couple tacos short of a combo meal due to some of his comments, but
I kept these thoughts to myself in order to be respectful.

As well, I was fully aware they were not appropriate due to the
setting.

The world is very over-populated, so if you find it in your best
interest not to listen to a voice of reason, drink yourself into a
coma and wrap your trunk around a post, go hard, because you are
breathing my air and obviously not enough of it is getting to your
brain.

There were people at the presentation who took the assembly to heart
and did not appreciate your interruptions.

Chances are they only have bad things in their drug-laced
future.

In my experience drunks often think they drive better that way and
druggies think they are the most intelligent people around -- which is
why no one can stand them.

News flash!

No one will want to let these people drive them home because it risks
their lives.

The only activities these individuals seem to do well at includes
eating Oreos and playing hackie sack.

We all need to grow up sometime -- the truth is ... no one outside of
Columbia sells crack for a living, resides in a mansion and has a love
life to rival Hugh Hefner.

Ways to tell you shouldn't get in the vehicle:

1) There are suspicious smelling ashes in every nook and cranny inside
the vehicle;

2) The driver is playing Dr. Hook and the Medicine
Show;

3) The driver decides to only drive five kilometers and hour, as to
not attract attention.
