what do you do with scum kids that have nothing better to do with their lives then to piss other people off?
I was having a nice day...lounging around my pad today. I met Mei-mei to go and buy stuff for Mei-wah's B-day which is this Friday...I want to bake her B-day cake and make a mango creme brulee.
On our way home Mei-mei and I were having a nice conversation when suddenly these four scum kids coming cycling towards us and threw tennis balls at us!!!!
why? Me-mei got hit on the head. They cycled off and then came back towards us, so we stopped and looked at them and then the threw more tennis balls. Mei-mei collected the balls and put them in her shopping bags and walked off. They cycled after as asking us to give us back their balls and that if we did then would leave us alone. So we said come here and get them. To my surprise Mei-mei was getting really angry and really wanted to beat them up. She told them to come and get them from us, but the wouldnt. They threw stones at us and cycled off.
What does one do. Do you go and push them off their bicycles and beat them up? whats that gonna achieve? It just shows them that that the only way to deal with things is threw violence.
Or do you talk to them and explain to them that what they are doing is wrong and should smarten up and find something more productive to do with lives. Would they listen?
What the hell? do they like wake up from their shit holes and say " Im gonna go out today behave like an absolute cunt"
What are their parents teaching them? Is society failing them?

That upbringing makes it very hard for me to understand the mentality of those kids and others like them. However I have been reading a lot about psycology and that does give me some clues.
As a child, I remember some builders working near to my home on a hot summers day. I imagined that they would be thirsty and I took them water to drink. They thought that I was doing it for money, but it was not done for that. Many years later, I saw my late mother take some water to some gardeners, again on a hot summers day. They were Iranian's and as my mother talked to them, I found out that there is a tradition in the MIddle East of giving people water.
Perhaps I gained my alltruistic streak from my mother? But imagine if you could make a person and control aspects of there personality with dials. Once the dials are set, they can't be easily changed.
Imagine if you turn the dial for alltuism up to 11, the highest setting. You might get a lady like Mother Terasa. Turn the dial to 1, and you get chav's, like the ones who bothered you.
Now imagine if you could turn other dials for things like being introverted/extroverted or for perception of other peoples thoughts and feelings. The combination of low alltruism, with high ego and low perception of other peoples needs would be bad for the people who have to suffer such an individual.
You can get an insight into your own personality through this test. I found it surprising how accurate it was for me, and there are only a small number of questions. It is based up the Myers Briggs model of personality, which has 16 personality types, made up of four characteristics.
Anyway, knowing this stuff on psycology does not make bad people more tolerable, but it does help to know why some people end up like that.
