6. As my late mother-in-law used to say: "they don't suck it out of their thumbs."

That kid CLEARLY was in an on-going, predominant environment where that shit was flung around with no apologies. It was evidently common enough, and he heard it often enough, and from enough of his friends and peers and possibly also the parents of his friends and peers, so he just absorbed it. Pretty obvious that's what was around him often enough for him to take notice. Obviously that behavior was not corrected by his parents, or isolated, or described in any way as offensive or something one must not do, or things one must not say, or ideas that one must not embrace. There was clearly no effort to correct this kind of bad behavior when that kid was younger and more impressionable and more open to instruction and guidance. Now, that shit is set. It's been allowed to dry and harden and the stain of it allowed to sink in.

Happy Fathers Day, flake - you ASSHOLE. Piss-poor job YOU did as a parent! We all have the evidence of the shit job you did, don't we?
