So tire irons are not acceptable tools when disciplining random children in the street.
Who knew?
Apparently it’s “illegal”!

You're not doing it right.
The trick is to pull a Tom Sawyer on the unsuspecting child: Man, I'd forgotten how much fun it is to change a tire. I mean, it's really fun! Oh, I don't know, Johnny . . . it's my job. Well, OK, you can do it for a little while, but only for a few minutes. Then I take over again.
You see, V., it's not the tire iron. It's the faulty car jack.
Your shitty neighbor's faulty car jack.

Do people wear trenchcoats anymore?

Only flashers, shoplifters, and synths with a 50s PI fetish.

I have a raincoat that reaches to mid-calf. When I taught school ('94-'96 school years), I got teased about it being a duster, with a long gun underneath. I taught math and physics, and didn't even own a long gun at the time (well, OK, a Daisy Red Ryder BB gun-"You can put an eye out with that thing!"). Weird, to say the least. I guess teaching classes in Mathenese put people off. True fact- I was actually trained as an NRA Certified Firearms Instructor at the time, though the people at the school had never been told. I was also a trained Hazardous Waste Operations (40-hour course) technician. They didn't know that, either.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Had to look that up. I sincerely hope they taste better than they sound.

Yes. I have a very heavy leather trenchcoat. It's black and worn but oh so comfortable.

If I ever find myself in a trench, I might regret not having the appropriate coat. But since the odds of my ever being in a trench are about as likely wombat astronauts, I'm not much fussed about it.

How do you tell a friend that their house is dirty without hurting their feelings? It really is filthy. I keep getting invited there for food and I'm running out of excuses. I think I'll have to break in and tidy the place up.
