The ASS Chronicles

WalkOnBy's picture

Ha! This just in - so I'm sure you guys remember that we have monitoring software on ASS's computer. Now that he has the computer back, DH is back to being able to see what ASS is journaling.

Apparently, he's calculated how much money he will make at his grocery bagging job and determined it's "not enough to survive." No shit.

He wrote "maybe I should just go to college." BA HA HA HA!!

He then went on to write "but then they will know that they were right." Yeah, we already knew that, ASS.

It boggles the mind that he's willing to continue knowingly working a "not enough to survive" job JUST so he doesn't have to admit you were right. That is a special kind of stubbornness.

One day he's going to be 30 years old and will shake his head at what a stupid, stupid idiot he was when he was younger!

WOB, what's the name of that software?

Sounds typical for ASS'S way of thinking. The good news is that he is still employed. Not that you care, but it must bring a smile to know that he's figuring out that he's an ASS.

I give him about 10 weeks. Then he will come up with some scheme for college.
I think he is one of those kids that will only learn from experience or a 'life lesson'. As long as it doesn't cost you anything, let him rip.

Your DH should text him, "We already know we're right, now go to college!"

Just kidding, he shouldn't do that, but it would be funny.

Has he then considered how hard it will be to survive while going to college? Probably not as that will become your DH's problem not his.

I'm sure he's going to try passively leeching off your DH before admitting y'all were right. He will probably do that thing kids do where they ask to bum a few dollars here or there.

Nope! DH is fully committed to letting him learn that the world is a big bad place when all you have is a high school education and a shitty attitude Smile

If ASS decides that he would like to go to college, the offer we made him previously still stands. He will be required to contribute something toward his education, and, as you might remember, he "did not ask to be born" and therefore we owe him an education.

BA HA HA HA!!

At least you and your DH have agreed to monitor ASS's internet activities. One time, when I was curious about where SS15 goes on the internet and what he talks about with his friends in chat on his iPhone, I picked up his phone and looked at some of the chats he had been having.

When I did that, DW went after me immediately, saying I had "violated SS15's rights." (His right to privacy, I guess.) I said, "Don't you want to know what he talks about with his friends?" (At the time, I was wondering if he was planning a school shooting, because he had made some comments to us about mass murder and killing his family. He only talked about this twice, but I took it very seriously.)

For now, yes. I agreed to keep him on for six months. Our household cell phone bill is in my name Smile
