“Please! You’re like, TWELVE.”

Home A Neighborhood Georgetown “Please! You’re like, TWELVE.”

“Please! You’re like, TWELVE.”

Jul 1, 2010 | Posted by User Submission |

Trying to put this together in my head: walking the dog down Wisconsin Ave. Pass by 3 boys that look about 11 or 12. After I pass I hear “hey nice ass” and some muttering about my dog. I turn around and say “Really? THAT’S what you say to a woman walking by you? Please! You’re like, TWELVE.” No one will look at me. They’re all looking at the ground and they slowly separate. I have this desire to emotionally scar them for life but choose not to.
