Dog Urine and Dog $hit: The Growth Of An A$$hole From Youth To Adult
Written by John ( the other John).
When
I was a young lad, I had a fat slob of a neighbor who went to the
same school as me, although he was a couple years older than me. His
parents owned some vicious dogs, in which he often took the dogs for
a walk around the block. Although this seems like a perfectly
innocent thing to do, this kid added a somewhat of a twist to this.
During spring and summer while walking his dogs, he allowed his dogs
to rip out people’s flower gardens; and in the winter, he had his
dogs Shit and urinate on select people’s powdery white snow. So
instead of waking up to scenic white snow, we saw brown $hit and
yellow urine. This dude was a total a$$hole who just enjoyed being a
spoiler to other people who had something nice for themselves.
After
he graduated school, he moved away to University. Afterwards as an
adult
whenever
I drove by that neighborhood, I wondered if this jerk changed his
ways when he became an adult and if he had any regrets to how he
treated his neighbors.
Then
one day perhaps 30 years later, he saw me at supermarket; I did not
recognize him, but he reminded me who he was. I of course was polite
and painstakingly engaged in conversation with him. Being curious as
to his choice of careers (or lack thereof), I asked him what he did
for a living. I was expecting him to say something like he was (for
example) on parole, or a truck driver, a sanitation worker; but no,
he told me that he was a “racial justice attorney” who sues towns
and home developers to compel them to build low-income affordable
housing so the towns and neighborhoods could diversify.
In
conclusion, what a remarkable metamorphosis for this SOB.
