Dangerous Music
Just got in from a nice walk on the rail trail between Hamden and Cheshire. We got out a little late, so the sun was already starting to fall and the temperature was dropping. But it was a nice, brisk walk.
On the way over to the trail I played some Eminem for Marty. He'd never heard it before. Now he's talking like Eminem. On the way home I asked him, "Do I turn left or right at the next light?" And his answer was, "I don't give a f---!" He cracks me up. We need parental warnings for explicit lyrics around here right now.
I told him if he can't stop himself from copying the way Eminem talks, he shouldn't listen to it. There are very few careers where that kind of language is going to be a competitive advantage. And I'm pretty sure engineer isn't one of them.
