I was in the Taco Bell drive through the other day with my friend Lee. The car ahead of us was a late-model black Camaro, a vehicle already inextricably linked with the ghetto, which was predictably dirty. We sat behind it for quite a while, and when they finally got their food they pulled forward a couple feet, the passenger side door flew open and an empty cup came hurling out. I shook my head in disgust but my contempt was interrupted by another cup flying out of the passenger side. Then the car pulled forward a couple more feet and something came flying out of the driver side window. I knew what it was as soon as I saw it but I really hoped I was wrong. As we drove out with our food I got a good look at it and, sadly, it was exactly what I expected.

Enfamil. Baby formula.

I had an instant mental image of the occupants of the car and they looked exactly like Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, the stereotypical loveless white trash couple of the nineties. I hate people who litter (if you're going to be a rude asshole you might as well hand your trash to the Taco Bell guy through the window; I know for a fact they'll throw it away, I've seen it done) but people who litter who have kids should have their parental rights revoked.

I have a lot more to say about children in modern society. Maybe I'll write it sometime. Right now it just makes me sick to my fucking stomach.
