Old People Are Good Fuel for Bonfires

 

Old people suck. They should be returned to the earth so we can grow tastier carrots and potatoes. Old people are fucking up my neighborhood, and imposing their outdated, cranky views on young couples and their kids.

It started at an HOA meeting – dreadful punch and cookies, not a drop of alcohol in sight – when the Fucking Old People (FOPs) announced that they no longer wanted young people (two of whom are Fozz Spawn) to play in the common area.

Why? Because when kids play in a place they leave behind toys, sports equipment, assorted trash, and other shit. Heaven forbid that a piece of land, that old people never use, has been desecrated. As good parents we try and pick it up, but on some days we’re busy with the shit ton of shit that occupies our lives.

Also, apparently children at play are noisy. And some have been known to utter “swear words” such as “dammit” and “shut up”. I expect better from my children, by now they should have an extensive vocabulary of dirty words. I lead by example, motherfucker.

I keep leaving empty bourbon bottles and syringes on the steps of the FOPs, hoping to them to move. If this doesn’t work, I’m bringing over my black friends for a cookout which should induce heart attacks and strokes.

There’s also an administrative brawl going on over the decks. I sat in an architectural meeting for TWO HOURS listening to frigid, dried out women debate what color is best: “light tan” or “dark tan.” The HOA president and I smoked a bowl after that meeting, and it didn’t relax me.

The oldsters want to ban outdoor fires, i.e. fire pits. Why? Because they’re “noisy” and “create noxious fumes”, which must remind them of the Great Fire of Baltimore that happened a million years ago. (Editor’s Note: After reading this sentence, Blaxabbath tore an ACL in his haste to write a joke about Baltimore. Get well soon, Blax!)

This subject created murderous rage in more than a few of my neighbors. Our answer? We had a fire pit the next night that was attended by 20+ adults, their kids, and a river of alcohol. (We also shot off bottle rockets. I know, we are assholes.)

My kids got a basketball hoop for Christmas, and we put it up for all of the kids in the neighborhood. They had a blast, the adults got into it. I pulled out all the stops one day and treated them to my behind the back, rock the cradle jam, which got the MILFs in the hood all gooey and starry eyed.

Then, they crossed the line.

These fucking old people took time from dusting off their Hummel figurines to complain about the hoop, because it was dangerous. To who? Them? You know what’s dangerous to them? When the cable company changes its channels and those dried up mummies can’t fucking figure out when Jeopardy airs. In the end, the hoop was removed due to “insurance liabilities”.

You can go after me and the adults, but when you deliberately target kids, fuck you. I posted a link to an over 50 community on the neighborhood’s Facebook page and suggested they all move there so we could enjoy our lives. I also would beep whenever I drove past their houses. I am a petty person.

While all of this burns me up to no end, my upbringing triggered Malcolm McDowell like reaction in “A Clockwork Orange.” You respect your elders. You honor them. You listen to them. You help them when they need it. In the end, I overcame that training and blew up their Rascals with a copious amount of C4.

All of this bitter fighting has accomplished nothing but to divide the neighborhood in to young and old factions. More important subjects have been ignored, all because a group of shrunken assholes who sit in their houses and watch Charlie Chaplin films want things their way. Fuck every one of them. I hope none of them can get their Maalox bottles open.

On A Lighter Note
(Each post will end with an event that made me happy.)

I thought this was re: Brexit, but this hits home closer. Yes, we should respect our elders as in we shouldn’t exploit them and treat them like shit. So many of these just whine because they have nothing better to do.

I hear you, man. I live in a city controlled by rich old people who block any sniff of actual progress, variety, or fun because it might make their musty-ass Miss Havisham houses worth $1.2 million instead of $1.3 million.

blaxabbath

You think Miss Havisham has a hundred K to burn just because you want to paint your balcony dark tan? She’s on a fixed income man!

It’s a fixed $25K a week and she owns everything outright but still….

blaxabbath

Look, I know it seems like I rip on Baltimore a lot but the truth is….

Well I’ll be damned. I guess I did tear my ACL. Always love your work, JJF.

My HOA is so big you’d need about 100 people acting in unison to even bring something to a vote.

Beerguyrob

That’s a fine hate, but I feel it could use more…whimsy.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

GIS revealed this, I can just see Mr. Fozz encountering it.

Look, obviously HOAs are dumpster fires, but I swear to god that were it not for HOAs, my asshat Seahawks fans neighbors would never take in their rubbish bins. That’s one thing at least these old cunts did right.

I just landed in Phoenix for the next 26 hours.

This place is an affront to God, Nature, and Common fucking Sense…

I don’t know what I was expecting. Its as hot, humid, and disgusting as the middle east, except there are no massive oil deposits so…why the fuck are people here? What major industry is here other than meth, fake universities, and heat stroking?

I need a shower and all I did was walk outside to smoke a cig. I never thought I would say this…but I would rather be in Detroit. There is culture there…its a fucked up, depressing as fuck culture…but Detroit at least was something once.

I now understand why the US Army spent the 50’s and 60’s trying to irradiate the shit out of this part of the country.

The desert southwest is simply an abysmal awful, but you also get the experience of Arizonans. Arizona = Florida West

...

I have two descriptions of Arizona that are my favorite:

1. A real-life Coen Brothers film.
2. Hell for people who really, really like Hell.

I heard that Scottsdale is a lot like Pleasure Island from Pinocchio, in that it’s dangerous to spend too much time there. Except that instead of turning into a donkey, you turn into Cindy McCain.

Fact: Phoenix only exists so porn stars, strippers, and ladys of the night can fly in and out of LA and Las Vegas and live somewhere else.

JustStopDude

The sad thing is that I figured…”Fuck it…go find some locals I know from my military time”. So I go onto facebook and I notice something very quick…all my vet friends from the SW look like they came from either hardcore gangbangers or white trash trailer parks.

Methinks I am just going to get a taco and try not to get stabbed…

Do yourself a favor and avail yourself of the best pizza in the USA.

Isn’t California pretty much dead for the porn industry?

...

I have two good friends from grad school who moved out there. I can’t for the life of me understand what they see in the place. It’s tolerable in the winter, but from what they say in the summer they just stay inside all day.

blaxabbath

Phoenix is great! So great, in fact, that Nestle is going build a water bottling plant here!

But, yeah, the humidity this week is a little out of the ordinary. It’s supposed to just be hot as hell — not hot as well AND kind moist.

You can basically take this whole rant and swap out references to the HOA with references to the UK and it makes a surprisingly apt Brexit rant.

Duchess

Well not quite, He would have to change cookies to biscuits, and add a few “cunts” randomly throughout. Also, need a few more bellend jokes.

...

I’m actually a little surprised there were more “cunts” scattered throughout this rant to begin with.

...

Rather, that there were NOT.

Duchess

Definition of cunt is “When the word bitch doesn’t seem harsh enough”.. or anyone who does something stupid while driving. I don’t know why but I automatically go there during bouts of road rage.

Also works for the USA.

If you really want to give the FOPs a stroke, invite over a biracial gay couple and tell them to make out for about twenty minutes.

Wakezilla

Is this what your FOPs look like, but white?

Has the Hateocracy taken over your HOA?

Duchess

If you want to move ot Northern Virginia I know a guy who can help you out. I mean with intrest loans as low as they are it is a great time to upgrade!.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

I have found that old women in particular are not good for bone meal for the garden; osteoporosis makes the yield much less.

Duchess

Younger folks do work better.

montythisseemsstrangetome

A comment from Moose that starts out “old women in particular are not good for bone…” actually didn’t end up how I thought it would.

Unsurprised

God DAMMIT Moose!

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

The FOPs in my family are the opposite; every god damned event is planned around the needs, tastes, and spoiling of the god damn fucking grandkids. GOD DAMN IT!!

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Also; good on the last part.

Unsurprised

BRING FORTH THE DEATH PANELS

Duchess

Obummer never closed Gitmo and never gave us the Death panels Fox News said he was promising!!

I love HOAs. The amount of petty bickering and bullshit is like like a safety valve, releasing people’s horrifying sadistic urges in small, relatively benign little bursts.

South Central? No HOA
West Garfield Park? No HOA
Fallujah? No HOA

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

But at least they add a big chunk of change to your house payment!

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Why are the kids bringing toys and shit to the common area? They should be bringing a football and maybe – MAYBE – some salt tablets. That’s all.

Rikki-Tikki-Deadly

Spears? Nah, those are no good for throwing at kids. Too big.
Javelins.

SonOfSpam

That’s all we need – old people complaining about spearchuckers.

Moose -The End Is Well Nigh

Mom was right; you ARE going to put an eye out.

Wakezilla

Sounds like the young faction must strike back and find shit that the FOPs like and get it removed.

montythisseemsstrangetome

Like Matlock?
