Apparently, I have an "OFFICIAL" voice that makes SGS stop doing stupid stuff.
One story, tonight I was on my home from the parks. I was heading to my car in the parking structure when I caught some Teen SGs, who appear to be cheerleaders, going up the down escalator. In my deep, "OFFICIAL," voice, I yell out, "YOU ARE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!!!!!" So in a moment of panic, they stopped and got off the escalator. The mom of the group realized that it was me and told me that they were with her. She then turned to the cheerleaders that my voice wasn't anyone of "authority!!" HOW DARE SHE SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!!

"Mom" will learn someday that she didn't teach her kids any respect for anybody,and they may take that out on her in her senior years. Have fun
dealing with your "Adult Children" then,Mom! :twisted:

One thing that I've learned is that it is never wise to assume that someone is not "authority" simply based on how they look.DLRFantasmic!Dan wrote: She then turned to the cheerleaders that my voice wasn't anyone of "authority!!"
Shame she never learned the same lesson.
Re: It Seems That I Have: THE VOICE!!!!
Haha, I hope she says that to a plain clothes one day. Then gets escorted out on her merry way. :D:
RIP Bud Hurlbut.
You will be missed.

Annnnnd that's my vote for what's wrong with many of today's young adults. Their parents have told them they're special for so long that they believe it. Rules apply to everyone but YOU.DLRFantasmic!Dan wrote:... She then turned to the cheerleaders that my voice wasn't anyone of "authority!!" HOW DARE SHE SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!!
One of my pet peeves is disabled parking violations. I will take the time and help the enforcement officers research (looking up placard owners, reviewing videos, verifying it's valid with DMV, etc.)
I've had the parents come in and argue they were in the car. I've shown them video and they still insist they were there.
DisneyMom -you're dead on! Reminds me of the song Cat's in the Cradle.
Parties of 33 should consider dividing their parties into two groups of 16 and a half each.

Best Voice of Authority
When I was a senior in college one of my courses was Auditing. The instructor was a CPA.
Anyway, after the first test the class average was somewhere around 70, and he let us know he was displeased. He did not have to raise his voice, and he did not have to use any profanity. But we all knew we had been very professionally chewed out (and rightly so).
Anyway, I had been working as a grader and tutor in the Accounting Department (for Freshman Accounting) and happened to be in this instructor's office one day and saw his wallet open on his desk. The top item in it was a retired military ID showing he had been a Colonel in the Marines.

I worked for a Colonel in the Army that was a master at ass chewing. He was so good at it that the subject wouldn't realize his ass had been chewed until he stood up and it fell on the floor.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Some people just have no respect for anyone else.

I am waiting for the group to fall and have a new bar code implanted on their face. :D:
