Me and my wife used to go out to clubs and see live music regularly back before we had kids. Now the oldest is out of the house and the other two might as well be. They are both in high school and spend a lot of time with their friends, so we have been going out more in the past year or so.
The most adorable thing about young people is that, in general, they share the belief that other people care about what they do and how they behave. They’re sort of right. Those people actually do exist. They’re called marketers. Old people, of course, know that marketers are Satan’s minions and can therefore suck a bag of demon dicks.
Other than marketers and your mother, nobody is paying attention to what you do or how you behave unless you’re hearting their Grams. But the youth? Yeah, they can be judgy – probably because they are in such good practice from judging themselves. The criticisms they concoct in their minds are always much worse than the ones they encounter in the real world. That’s why it’s extra important that people like yourself and your wife – people ... shall we say ... with a lot of “life experience” ... walk bravely amongst the youth and make things super awkward. Fuck it. .
Look, I know you – and more importantly your wife – are not solely responsible for keeping Austin awkward, but we have to start somewhere, and the youth are way too self-conscious, smooth-skinned, and attractive to be effective freak flag standard bearers. Hell, they can barely find their asses with both hands – and they probably won’t even try because people are looking.
