they're ba'ack

here they come.  starting or returning.

the usual mix is as such...

affluent brats here thanks to mom/dad donating a building or a wing.

hyper-intelligent scholarship kids.

culture shocked international students.

the jocks.

average kids working 2 jobs to pay for school.

what is the common denominator here?  the trail of litter.  half eaten food, cigarette smoke and cigarette butts, beer cans, bottles and vomit, used condoms and yes, unclaimed panties in their wake.

when they leave for the summer or forever there is a permanent stain on my neighborhood.  the foul and increasingly large (size and number) community of rats are an added bonus as well.

the questions in my mind and the minds of my neighbors are:

do their parents have any clue?  do the students themselves find this remotely disgusting? did they live like this before arriving here?  and how the hell does one lose one's panties?  wait don't answer that last one.
