It's time for bed. NOW!

I'm probably going to get a nasty email or something from the planned parenthood people for this, but hey what fun is life if you're not offending at least a few hundred people a day right? ( Actually, it's a lot of fun, and a bit safer to boot. ) However, in my experience there are often those children whom seem to need to be physically beaten with a 2x4 lumber board in order to get them to do anything less entertaining to them than staring at the TV screen or to even behave in some manner other than their "gangsta" mode ( Perhaps it's just the kids I deal with, I don't pay much attention. ). And when I say this, I say it without worry because the fine folks at Social Services Child Protection Department know I'm just joking ( Unless they recently started the job, in which case their supervisor will probably let them know to ignore this comic. ). But the truth remains, kids today are a bunch of brats. Of course, it's not that kids in my generation, my parents generation or even my grandparents generation were ever any less of brats. We just didn't have the ability to use our cell phones to look up better insults and snide remarks than "poopyface" to sneer at adults. So w weren't as effective. And as a result, while the average child's IQ is higher than most of their parents combined ( Who were absolutely amazing to their parents because they could figure out how to change the station on the radio. ) they also have the approximate vocabulary of a street pimp who has just finished several lines of coke and learned English grammar conventions in school for those with clinical anger issues. But that's not a problem to the rest of us who are just grateful that we have someone to program our cell phones for us, even if they call us some foul name in Hungarian which we don't understand. We just learn to ignore that we can't understand them even when they're not swearing at us. The Hungarian swearing makes them easier to tune out when we're trying to figure out which button on the remote makes the volume go up. But if I ever do happen to learn Hungarian, Social Services knows I'm just joking about that 2x4 thing.

4x4's are far harder to break.
