Ish,

We had not reached the point at that time where society was responsible for what ailed us.

I was an out of control dipshit in Junior High, but I was fortunate to have an un-enlightened assistant principle. One day I had to go to his office to receive more detention or something ( I had more hours of time out then I could have possibly served in my career in school). Mr. E had decided he had enough and told me to wait while he talked with the secretary. When he came in the office I met him with a smart ass grin on my face because I am a really big man on campus, and guess what, he abused me! Tossed me over the top of his desk and explained to me in a base sort of way that he and I were all done talking. Told me that my slate was wiped clean, no more detention, I was back on the bus, etc. But then informed me that if he and I ever talked about anything again other then the weather he would kick my ass back to my ancestor's and I wouldn't have to worry about detention ever again.

We never talked again, except about the weather. Had my total attention.

It's ashame that doesn't happen anymore.
