Weep Not For The Urban Son
7:34 AM Edit This 0 Comments »
You may weep over the loss of wholesome family experiences and the consequent angst and apathy this loss has created within today’s urban youth.
I take comfort in the fact that it is not altogether true. I know for a fact that city-bred boys are still excited by simple pleasures, like the joy of a father son fishing trip. They just express it differently. Like so (as overheard on the TTC one evening… no, seriously.):
"I'm gonna get me a M*^&*% F*&#@!# pike. And I'm gonna take that b*#@$ and I'm gonna slice it down the middle and I'm gonna fry it's A#! and I don't f*^%$%@ care. I'm gonna split it and put some butter up on that Sh$@ and I'm gonna put it on the f*&^%$# grill."
F&*^%$# right my young friend. F^&*%$# right
