Exchange in the park

[urbpan]

As I was walking the dogs back home through the park this morning, I caught up to a group of teenage boys, two of whom were throwing rocks at the ducks in the river. I've encountered this before, and in the past reacted by screaming. I really need to keep my cool more often. As I approached, the boys were tired of their game, and sat on a bench. As I was passing, one boy gestured at my dogs and said

"Yo, thassa half-pit right there, right?"

I replied "They're both full pit. Please don't throw rocks at them, okay?"

Before my superego could get control of the situation, my id insisted on adding,

"Asswipes."

But sometimes childish insults are the only thing these idiots understand! Ya did good! The word "pig" will probably ring in her ears for a few days and perhaps she'll think twice befroe littering again.

"But sometimes childish insults are the only thing these idiots understand!"

Does anyone really ever understand childish insults? I periodically get called a moron, asshole, fat ass, bitch, and a bunch of other very colorful terms, and I never really know what these people are trying to tell me other than I somehow don't fit into their world the way they want me to.

And hey, I'd be happy to be called a pig, they're so cute and smart!
