Our neighborhood has 1280 homes. We have a HOA website and FB page for misc notifications (or as I like to call it, homeowner whining).
A lady came on to tell a story about her 10 year old son who was outside "bouncing acorns off the sidewalk" when a car drove by and an acorn "accidentally hit the car". The guy stopped and yelled at the kid. The kid ran inside crying and the car left.
The post on FB (after explaining it was harmless and the acorn simply bounced the wrong way.....LOL) was to advise us parents that we should not approach, talk to little kids nor encourage them to talk to strangers. She had to explain to her son what the guy in the car did wrong. :facepalm
Enter FSUKW with truth bomb. I advised if any kid hit my car, I am stopping every time no matter if intentional or accidental. I went on to tell a similar story about some kids who threw rocks at my car about 3 years ago and I stopped and yelled at them scaring them in the process. She replied that she did not ask my opinion and did not care if I agreed or disagreed with her. I then explained that I did not need her permission to reply and did not care if she agreed with me.
Enter her husband. He defended his son and called him a "gentle soul who would never harm a fly" and said "you do not want me to scare you". I replied, I assure you I am stopping the car every time in that circumstance no matter who is standing in the yard.
Enter another resident who sided with me and said if the man did not know what happened, why would he not stop and get to the bottom of it. He told a story about kids throwing snow balls at his car and breaking the windshield when he lived in NY. The wife replied in an F-Bomb laced retort. As did the husband. The guy replied, you can deal with me or you can deal with the cops.
The best part: The husband PM's me and said "you are a fucking terd".
I am laughing so hard:
1) no way that little fuck was just "bouncing acorns off the sidewalk".
2) Gentle Soul = hilarious from two hostile parents.
3) I had tons of likes.
4) Parents blaming every one other then their own. Ran in crying. Had to explain what the man did wrong..... :ROFL2
