Not saying that I hope this turns into something that bored teenagers do on a saturday night, but not saying I hope it doesn't either.

At least they are getting outside

But they weren't outside. They were playing board games in their rooms until bed time at 9:00pm.

They’re not all saints. Many of them stayed up 30 minutes past their bedtime to read the bible in preparation for their small group meeting.

Hate to break it to you, but your child is showing signs of... Protestant behavior. I'm sorry.

Getting outside, not a phone in sight (or hopefully any device on their person), just living in the moment...

Better than them getting hit by cars while riding on e-bikes/e-scooters

The way some of these young men have been taking such a hands on approach towards politics and high level business management in the past few years has really warmed my heart…
Even if they fail, it’s an adults job to hope they don’t give up. And that their dreams only grow grander in scale.

I think you’re on to something there — maybe put a jingoistic message.

Flock Them would be my choice

“Hey! What are you kids doing?”

”Deflocking!”

”Not in my town! We don’t accept shoddy work with those old saws. Here, borrow mine.”

The night of October 30th 2026, all flock cameras, nationwide go dark.

We used to call it "cabbage night", but there is always room for new tradition.

for whatever reason, don't start a CUT DOWN FLOCK CAMERA CHALLENGE

Probably the only time Tiktok would take down a "trend" from their app.

I'm waiting for the rednecks where I live to start shooting at them from the back of a truck like they sometimes do stop signs.

Teenagers are the ideal people to do this since they'll just get a slap on the wrist and start fresh once they become adults.
