Call the cops or not?

Maybe the kid could (at the very least) lend a hand?

Sounds like he comes from a nice family...

 

Clearly, your neighbor is in on the ruse.

Have Marcellus Wallace bring him to the pound.

 

Blubber kicks ass.

It has all the elements: Racism, mental and physical abuse, snot, throwing food, breast (a mention, anyway), the dad's subtle molestation and subjugation of his daughter, the dickhead brother who would have died in any sequel.

 

fuck! I wrote Bubbler. I meant Blubber. Hi Bubbler!

Damn Dye. That's a dark interpretation. I gotta re-read that.

Wonder what ever happened to Sheila the Great. Wonder if Peter grudgefucked her.

 

Sheila was about as great as Herm Edwards. What a moron.

Years ago they made a TV show out of those Fudge stories. Eve Plumb played the mom. At the time, it sucked really bad. Today it would be the best the networks have to offer.

 

Dude, how fast do you have to be driving IN A SUBDIVISION to not only jump the curb but completely destroy someone's yard to the point they think it has to be intentional?

Seriously?

 

I hate to be a dick. I really, reeeeeeeally do.

But dammit man, it's grass. By June you won't remember it was there. Go to Home Depot, get a couple of bags of top soil, some grass seed and some burlap to toss down and hit the dad for the bill. If he had lost control of the car and blasted your wife's brand new Cadillac, I'd say otherwise. But it's grass. It grows back. The mailbox on the other hand...

 

Yes, Jill (the main character) and her best friend put rotten eggs in the mailbox of a neighbor on Halloween.

Judy Blume rocks. The book "Blubber" typefied grade-school angst.

 

Shoot the offender, burn the body, scatter the bones. It's the only reasonable response.

 

Agreed.

And has egging gone out of style? Never hear about that much anymore. Was quite the rage when I was in school, not that I would know anything about activities like that.

 

We egged one year. Two hours of planning for five seconds of throwing eggs.

 

My condolences to you on the loss of your former best friend Scott Scanlon.
