The wildest thing is we didn't have to get our parents' permission for this.

My friend knew she was going to be a unwilling/unwitting part of this assembly as soon as the actor locked eyes on her. 😨

It was super heavy.

This actor spent a tense moment recoiling and berating a biracial friend, in character all while having a wrinkled uniform, 'metals' that were falling apart.

He later explained that the shabby costume was to show his real life disdain.For the dictator.

Oh my god the last one!

"Why did you park in the road?"
I didn't

"Why didn't you lock your bike up?"
Where do you lock your bike up in front of a Residential house?

(Sure, if you wanna blame me for the bike getting stolen, fine. Call me naive for not expecting a bike to get stolen in front of a house I frequented 🙄)

So that's how I went from riding all around my neighborhood to having a totaled bike then stolen bike in less then a week.

Having my 'wings' clipped sucked, but whenever I tried to talk about the misfortunes I got blamed for both of those incidents 🤨

People insulted my in intelligence!

My bike got into a altercation with M's mom's car 🚲🚗🫠

M's dad gave me his bike, which was a cool mountain bike.

I had it for a total of 2 days before it was stolen from the front of J's house. 😑

I had parked my original bike there, all the time no issue!

Getting to J's house was an easier straight shot, with sidewalks! So if I was speedy, I could bike down to her house in 20 minutes.

I had it all worked out!

When I would visit, I'd just set my bike in the respective yards and go hang with M or J!

I did this for months

But then one day.. 🫨

The quickest way to get to M's house was to take this narrow, dangerous ass road, with huge ditches, and since I never even wanted to walk on that road, I certainly wasn't going to bike on it.

Taking the safer routes through the neighborhood would add 15-20 minutes. But that was fine on the bike.

( The Sonic franchise, much like Final Fantasy is so memorable and maintains staying power because the music tends to be good, it sticks with you.

Unfortunately Sonic Chronicles has a lot of tracks that sounds like, sounding out songs on that casio, you got when you were six 😬 )

So if my options were 'take your brother or stay home' There were times were I would just stay home. (Old man didn't like that either. Couldn't win for losing 🤣)

But.. some times I'd just walk my ass the 2hrs to and fro w/ my brother (But only to 1 of the friends since it was a safer road walk )

So yeah, if I wasn't getting in 'trouble' for grades, it was dumb shit like that where I definitely being set up to fail XD

My dad preferred I stayed home to be babysitter for my sibling but I was a teen with friends.

I had the option of taking my brother with me, but again TEEN W/ FRIENDS!

I was already upset about the dog & the fact that I RAN some too and didn't meet time

My 2 closest friends lived about 50min walks from me & my bike was gone (the story about the bike is a long one for another day 😑)

All this could have been avoided if he just gave me a time or picked me up =/

(Which at this point, I still hated but it was better then the yelling) His gf, trying to translate the petty when I came in to apologize

It was funny to see her try, cuz I'm trying to ask if I'm in trouble & should I just go to my room? Dad's just turned away like I can read his mind.

I guess the streetlights were on for a whole 5minutes before I opened the front door.

He could have & should have said "Be back in this house by 7 or else"

My dad's gf was caught in the middle of stupid boomer parent nonsense and my dad, is giving me the silent treatment.

I asked again "What time would that be?" and he said "You'll know."

Well I didn't, because, how the fuck would I know?!

So, yeah I left my friends house early, got chased by a dog, made it back to my street just as the lights blinked on. Sun was still up so cool?

Spoilers, it was not cool.
