Is your hubband home.....that is what the punk asked me

[Kymberley]

GRRRRR!!!

I work nights and usually go in around midnight. However, last night I decided that since I am the boss and I have put in over 70 hours this week alone, that I would sleep in until about 2 am.

Seems that worked quite nicely for my two sons, ages 12 and 14 and my little brother also 14. They decided to do something I haven't even thought about doing since I was their age.

What??

Getting out the eggs and not using them for cooking I assure you.

So, the bored teens sat out front and egg the stop signs, the no parking signs, the side of the building across the street, the trash dumpster in the alley, and I am sure a few more things I have yet to find out about.

Just like when we were all kids, all good pranks sometimes lead to trouble when you get busted. And they did, by another brother of mine who is in his early 20's.

Well, I got the call from grandma about what the little heathens had been up to and told my kiddos when they got home, they would be hosing off the signs and the building and then I would figure out what I would do about them.

After working 14 hours, I get home around 5:30pm, get ready for bed and the boys already fell asleep on the ride home, I told them we would do the signs and building tomorrow and for them to go to bed.

This little runt of a boy who just so happens to think of himself as some sort of tough city thug, comes over banging on the glass window in my front door.

I go answer it, his first words were, "Lady, you got two little white sons?"

I grinned and then laughed, never heard them described that way before, After all, I am white. "yeah" I said.

"Then get your hubband out here, we got 'sumptin' to discuss." then he added "now damnit" when I just stood there glaring at him.

"Tell you what, I will have him discuss anything you want with him, just you will have to find him first, cuz I haven't seen him in years nor do I care to go find him so you can discuss 'sumptin' with him." I snapped back at the little gnome.

(no offense to any little gnomes)

He started his street thug hand signals and waving his arms screaming about the eggs on the building he rents in, and then called me more names I won't even bother to try and figure out how to spell.

Now, this is my question, had the boys been awake when we got home or had it been tomorrow morning, they would have been out there washing up their mess, Do I even bother with the little thug's building after his behavior?

I hate people who think we all behave in this world the way they do, without morals or values or rules. My sons did somthing wrong and I was already dealing with it all as a good parent would do. But just seeing his actions on my porch and the way he was screaming makes me just want to blow that part of the punishment off.

Hell, maybe I should just wait til my Hubband, as he puts it, gets home and he can deal with the little punk.


Any thoughts?

Kym do what is right for your sons, not the idiot.

I hope you told him to get off your porch.

 

[registered "^^"]

Yes, I am surprised you let him live! The thearpy must have helped Kym! hehehe

 

[Cheyenne]

The time delay between the action and the punishment seems to be the problem. Had I done anything like that as a kid, my ass would have been out of bed in the middle of the night cleaning it up, with my dad watching to make sure I left a spit shine behind.

Your neighbor was wrong for yelling. But with so many hours between the actual event and when he came to see you, he had no way of knowing you realized there was a problem and had already planned to handle it.

I'd still have them clean the building, even after the neighbor's reaction.

(Of course, I'm not a parent. I don't know how I'd really react if it were my children someone was yelling about.)

People are so stupid!

Now, this is my question, had the boys been awake when we got home or had it been tomorrow morning, they would have been out there washing up their mess, Do I even bother with the little thug's building after his behavior?

If it was just the guys house, I would say leave it. But since you said it was an apartment building, I assume other (sane) people live there, so they have to deal with the egg too. I would make them clean the building off to.

 

[Kymberley]

Told him next time he came to my porch beating on my door that way, He had better hope he has found my 'hubband' to pull my ass off him.


I will make the boys do what is right, but damn, that is such b.s to act that way.

You would think he would have first told me what they did, asked if I knew it and waited for me to tell him what I would do to deal with my sons.

 

[sexy-girl]

yeah i agree ... your idea of punishing them and getting them to clean it up sounds good ... wouldnt let the "punk" interfere with what you were going to do anyway


besides getting angry or "petty" with this thug maybe sets a bad example ... even though he probably deserves it just my opinion

 

[Kymberley]

I do agree Cheyenne. One problem is that they both were tired because they also worked all night, they both have part time jobs to earn their spending money working at the warehouse with other contractors.

Their being up all night to do this would have been over 25 hours they were up and I would have to be up watching the whole time. I go back to work at midnight tonight.

Also, the brick building is across the street, it is too busy of an intersection in the evening to haul a hose across the street, and I don't know if that guy there, who is the only one living in the building now has a hose.

Plus, my little brother is also being made to help with the mess, he is working at the Cardinal game tonight.

So we had all decided they would do it in the morning when I got home from work.

 

[Shylady]

No Kym he knows that wouldn't have impressed you so much

 

[GuyJD]

KYMBERLEY, I AM SHOCKED

Do you know how many "I'm lets" those eggs could have made? (LOL)

I truly hate how some people can slaughter the English language. You should have told the thug wannabe that your husband was at the Red Neck Firing Range and that you'll tell him that he needs to talk to him. No' um saying? (That's thug slang for "Do you know what I'm saying")

 

[Kymberley]

Yes, I am surprised you let him live! The thearpy must have helped Kym! hehehe

LOL

You know how calm I try to be when I am pissed off. LMAO

It wasn't the therapy, it was that I could literally break that little punk in half with one hit, after all, I am the one that throws those damn 7 pound papers nightly. He is smaller than both my sons. One bitch slap from me and he would be suing my landlord for him falling off the porch and waking up in our front yard tomorrow morning.

 

[Kymberley]

lol JD





Over two dozen eggs. We could have made lots of omlettes.

 

[ohiobbw]

No' um saying? (That's thug slang for "Do you know what I'm saying")

And "Do you know what I'm saying" is thug slang for "I know you can't understand me because I talk like my mouth is full of shit, but I'll keep saying "Do you know what I'm saying" til I drive you insane.

 

[bluntforcemama]

I would reccommend teaching your sons the lessons they need to learn, and then think about moving. Christ, that would scare me if that guy came up to me and started ranting. I'd probably mace the hell out of him. If he shows up again, I say call the cops for harrassment.

Re: KYMBERLEY, I AM SHOCKED

No' um saying? (That's thug slang for "Do you know what I'm saying")

do you have any idea how sad it is that i knew what that meant before you translated? *rolls eyes*


Kym... that sucketh... majorly... i'd have told the guy to fuck off and washed the egg of his building with piss. *smirk* na, j/k. but make those kids see the consequences of their actions - they better get cleaning.

JUST FOR THE RECORD

I've interviewed and interrogated quite a few street thugs and wannabe's, so just so you'll know what the words mean:

UNO- Often used constantly at the end of a sentence but for no real purpose, this is a question. Asking, "Do you know?". Abbreviated for "Do you know what I'm saying".

LEMMY TELL U- "Let me tell you"

MAN- Also used often at the end of a sentence. It is mostly used whether they are speaking to a man or woman and chose not to take the time of learning their name.

LOL
Incidently, I hope that I don't offend any of our African American Literoticans. I mean no offense for I, too, am an African American.

 

[lobito]

folks...

dis da way dat all dem folks talks here in STL. Dem aint meenin a specific race, just the DUMBFUCKS dat makes dis der crib.

Re: JUST FOR THE RECORD

Really? See, just goes to show that people are people, all the same, no matter what color. Here on the board, no one knows what you look like unless you choose to tell them or show them. All this time, I had no clue you were African American.

I always think I'm doing well if I can just figure out who is male and female around here! Names like yours help, by the way. But there seem to be a lot more uni-sex versions around recently.

Follow up to the thread

Well the boys cleaned the building this afternoon. I talked to my landlord and she gave me the number of the building owner. I called him and told him what my kids had done and asked if he could meet us at the building so they could explain to him why they chose to vandalize his property.

He was so nice about it, came over when I got home from work. My sons both apologized to him and also offered to clean up the trash his tennants had thrown both in the front yard and back yard as well as to paint over the graffitti that was spray painted on the garage behind the building.

He was impressed by my son's willingness to attempt to right the wrong they had done. I had nothing to do with the offering of they labor past the washing of the eggs off the building.

He also went to the punk that had cussed me out and informed him that the next time he found beer bottles and cans in the yard there, or trash scattered all over the place because they are too lazy to carry it out, that he would be evicting them.

Not to mention, made the little thug apologize to me and assured me that the little boys rental priviledges would hinder on whether he ever harrassed me again.

My kids are passed out as I type this, since they both worked last night on their part time cash gigs, and then spent two and a half hours working over at his building.

Wonder why I can't get them to carry our trash out without the usual argument of who carried it out last night?

Nite all, tis my bedtime. Midnight is just a few hours away.

Very cool. In case no one tells you, you are a great mom!
