Stupid Kids.

[fionic]

Sunday night, I had two kids use my trunk as a table for their phones and keys while they threw a football less than 4 feet from my car.

what? who would ever think this is okay to do to a stranger's car?

My wife came downstairs and asked if I had left something on my trunk and I told her that it's not a table and I don't use it as such. I was in a blind rage when she said that there were kids out there, too.

So what's their excuse for not watching what the hell their brats are doing. Too busy drinking and watching soap operas?

Murray, Dr. Phil, Kardashian's, Netflix and chilln' with "just a friend", smokin' pot, chasin' the dragon, blowcain, etc.

Take your pick, could be any of those or all the above

Maybe with the single mom something could be worked out

My neighborhood kids treat my car as a goal post for their soccer games. There are two grass fields within 100 feet of where I park my car, but apparently playing in the street and damaging other people's property is the fun thing to do. I've verbally reprimanded them once(politely), I'm afraid to think of what I would do if they seriously damaged my car.

It's all the political correctness these days. An epic ass-whipping would cure a lot of America.

Until then, my evil, vindictive side will suffice.

Their doing those or their too busy writing on their tumblr blogs about how they love their bodies too much, how their perfect parent figures, and that their children are little angels

This shit is criminal. I don't care of their ages. Cops should have been called, report made and charges filed and then call your insurance company to let them go after the family to recoup the loss.

Really sorry about your car man. I think that sometimes us adults have to act the part though. You had your chance but chose to ignore them. I tend to want to not get involved myself but I could not in good conscious not walk over and politely explain that playing on a car is not allowed. Hope you get the parents to pay up.

Kids with entitlement issues.

I have the same worry. My car is too wide to fit in my garage, and the kids next door sometimes throw stuff around and I see it bounce off other cars...One even hit mine with a rubber ball (no damage thankfully). I also feel its a ticking time bomb - but overall the kids here are well behaved.

Sucks - dunno what the solution is. Putting a car cover on everytime I drive in and out seems like a PITA. Another option might be to widen the garage door, but its a major cost. GRRR!

In your case, I would def ask the family to pay. Simply rubbing your hand on a dusty car will leave the paint scratched and swirled, forget shoes, toys etc.

Install alarm. Set the sensitivity high. When kids mess around and alarm goes off, come running out in your boxers holding a baseball bat with a pissed off look. Then look at the kids, change your demeanor to relieved/happy and say "Was that you kids? Oh okay, thought it was GOD DAMN FUCKING MEXICANS. Play safe! "

Kids will think you're crazy from now on and will be afraid to even walk near your car.

How things have changed! When I was a kid, we all used to actually do that and nobody cared, in fact they liked it! In the 70's it was just different, people saw cars more as function.

Today is a lot different and I would feel the same way. Bud kids are kids, thats what they do especially in apt complex's (which is where I lived as a kid too). I've had to deal with some kicking out my sprinkler heads around here. I couldn't imagine owning a nice car in an apt complex without a dedicated garage... that just asks for trouble.

It was harder to dent a car in the 70s, you could sit on a fender back then without hurting it as long as you didn't have jeans with rivets on them... Ouch!
I never considered parking my Mustang outside. I am fortunate enough to have a 2 car garage. Cleaned it out to make room before I bought the car. I figured it would have been a bad move to make my wife park in the driveway, lol.

So white women, especially the housewives who ruined the image of BMW and Mercedes and think the current cars are flawless:doh::barf:

Anyone else picture then doing yoga to boot?

I Can guarantee you the parents most likely are worthless oxygen thieves.

Bastards. Unbelievable. A similar thing happened to me IN MY GARAGE with my earlier Maxima
