So this dumbass college kid is sitting there hitting on a high school kid (namely, me) going “Oh, if you’re tired you can lay your head on my shoulder.” and trying to give me money and shit. WHAT THE FUCK?! I mean, not a lot of people get creeped out by this kind of thing, but I’m the type of person who does. FIRST OF FUCKING ALL, I don’t even KNOW you! Second, I KNOW you have a girlfriend because I HEARD you talking about her and saying how fuckin’ awesome she is. So why the fuck are you hitting on a high school student?!:mad: 'scuse my french. ---

I think context is important. Right now I’m puzzled by the scenario. How do you know he’s a college kid? Were you on a subway, sitting next to him, and you overheard his phone call to his girlfriend? ---

Take the money but not the shit. Seriously, most people would be creeped out by this. However, posting here - especially in this forum - is probably not going to help. Tell the guy to fuck off, and if he doesn’t, tell someone else in real life. ---

> [@St\_Jimmy](#): > > So why the fuck [is a college student] hitting on a high school student?!:mad: Yeah, who ever heard of an 18 year old college guy hitting on a 17 year old high school girl? I’m just outraged at the idea! Next thing you know, 17 year old high school senior guys will be hitting on 16 year old high school junior girls, and then our society will degenerate into terminal immorality, or something! 😃 ---
