Yeah, I gotta agree on that with you on that one Calliander, that's some old school bullshit right there. My parents spoiled me lavishly when I was in my teenage years, and you know what I got on my "Sweet Sixteen"? A pool party with my best friends, some kick ass bar-b-que and my favorite relative Uncle Tom visiting me from New York (He was kinda old and had one leg so that was a fucking trek for him). And you know what? I fuckin' loved it! My best gift that year? A beat to shit VHS copy of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, You remember the one, where Dennis Hopper got into a GODDAMNED chainsaw duel with Leatherface! YEAH! It was the shit.
And what the fuck is with boys having a Sweet Sixteen? What kinda pole smoking poofter boy asks for a Sweet Sixteen? What is there, some surpressed need to be fabulous in todays boys? When I was there age My list of fabulousness went like this:
- Vagina
- Role-playing Games
- Comics
- Swords
- Vagina
Granted, I didn't get laid until I was 23 and if I were a bit more fabulous I might have gotten more vagina. But some how that old episode of the Twilight Zone with Burgess Merideth comes to mind. You know the one... Where he has all the time and books in the world, but no glasses to read them.
