Words fail me

The mind-boggling stupidity documented in this, and the near-illiteracy of the messages left by the daughter's friends in this, make me weep for the future of our civilisation.

What the hell is wrong with us?

there are posters in the mall, written in sms-text, that basically say "if you can read this, this applies to you... no loitering, no groups of 3 or more, don't wear black, no weird makeup, don't harrass the cash holders..." stuff like that. paraphrased. cuz i don't actually speak sms :)

k thx bye

Christiana Mall, off I95 in Delaware, has now taken to checking IDs. No one under 18 permitted in the mall on Friday and Saturday nights unless accompanied by an adult. As a former teenaged "maul rat", I'm kind of annoyed at this policy. :-(

What if you need to buy something?

Well, nobody under 18 has any money, obviously. :-P

Personally, I'm kinda horrified by the idea of any place so blighted that the only thing to do on Friday and Saturday nights is go hang out at the mall.

I have a whole rant about that, but this isn't the space for it....
