I just did.That's very rude, yet strangely common behavior. Perhaps I'm old-fashioned, but aren't you supposed to wait until the adult says something like ,"these are my kids-this is Odium, and this one is Tedium...", before you start making friends with other peoples kids?

The baldy thing? I'm short ,ugly, balding and fat- generally ignored by women.I re-shaved my head and suddenly women adore me. I pity the fool who messes with comb-overs and Rogaine.
