Why I Love My Son
Tonight, I was complaining to Max about the people at our local Whole Foods store. I noted that you couldn’t tell the difference between the homeless guys and the hipsters, who were affecting the same look, i.e., filthy dreadlocks and grubby clothing.
Max replied, “But you can’t say the homelss guys are “affecting” the look.
Me: “True.”
Max: “They’re “rocking” it.”

Brilliant! Since his humour survived intact can we have an update on his health too?

Homeless people can afford to shop at Whole Foods now? More porridge, sir.

I assume Max is better now? Could care less about the hipsters, though.

At first glance I thought those two were aged hipsters…. in fact they’re very young.
Your son sounds like a wise soul

My sister has that exact same look, except her dreads are brown…
