Yesterday was Fun....
Walking from the beach to the pub yesterday evening, my three straight friends and I had to cross the path of a pack of 10 to 13 year olds who were just sitting on a wall doing nothing. As we go past, they start shouting "batty boy", "fag", and other less than polite terms. So far, I'm just thinking "yeah, whatever kids. F*** off now". One little waste of space actually goes up to one of my friends and pushes him before trying to punch him. Seeing as the kid is half my friend's height, my mate just keeps the kid out of arm's length. As we walk off, do the kids stop shouting and being total ****stains? Nope. They thrown stones at us and follow us down half the block before we started toward the town centre.
One part of me is sad that those kids are so hateful and angry at such a young age.
The other part wanted to thrown the aggressive one up against the wall until his skull did a Rice Krispie ("snap, cackle, pop").
Sometimes, I hate people.

Strange how seeing a dozen people holding up a sign saying "Fags: God hates you, AIDS is your punishment" doesn't affect me yet a ****stain of a kid shouting at me really gets me angry.

Annoying kids are the most annoying creatures on the planet.
I know what you're talking about. It wasn't the homophobic factor that got you, but the "pesky litte POS that you wouldn't mind that he would be molested by an old man with an oversized *****, and then killed by injecting anti-freeze in his vein".

And don't forget to burn them afterwards.

I sure wasn't normal to me. These kids aren't 6, they're more 13. You're supposed to have grew a tad of tolerance at that age. At least, enough not to throw stones at gingers.

It's perfectly normal for kids to shout targeted homophobic insults, try to pick a fight, and then chuck rocks at people who didn't do anything to them?

I don't know if it's 'normal' but it's certainly common.

If only those kids knew what I was listening to before they decided to get on my nerves.
One
Nothing wrong with me.
Two
Nothing wrong with me.
Three
Nothing wrong with me.
Four
Nothing wrong with me.
One
Something's gotta give.
Two
Something's gotta give.
Three
Something's gotta give.
Lets the bodies hit the floor! Let the bodies hit the floor! Let the bodies hit the floor!

Speaking of kids, two cheeky little bastards decided, when I was driving into an air bay to check my tires to pull up in front of me and fill their tires up first when I was already there...they are very lucky I didn't decide to drive over their bikes...

that's a classic mate, saves you getting bollocked by the garage owners because it just looks like someone's using it for their car. 
god, this thread reminds me how great it was being 13

The only reason I didn't was because I didn't want to puncture my tires...do you know how much 17" tyres cost nowadays?

When I was 16 or so there was a group of kids (about 14 or so) that were being equally lairy and looking for a fight. Started throwing stones. I was totally pissed off. I don't know why, but I chased the biggest most vocative kid down. Lamped him clean across the face and he didn't fight back. His mates just scapa'd.
I wish I hadn't done it, but I still enjoyed doing it.
These kids do it to look cool with their mates, and they think the person they are taunting will not fight back. Feign to run at them and they turn into sissy boys.
