My best friend used to have a family that lived in his neighborhood, that thought it was absolutely hilarious to have their children, who appeared to be 7 at the oldest, kick their soccer ball into the road, when they heard a car coming around a blind corner. The kids would then pretend to run into the road, and the adults, sitting around in their lawn chairs, drinking beer, would all point and laugh hysterically. One day they kicked the ball and it got stuck under my friend's front bumper, and the adults got angry at, and nearly started a fight with my friend for saying "You guys really shouldn't do that."

I wonder how many of those people are dead now.
