The lazy bum couldn't even finish community college. I heard he doesn't visit his mom either! He was rude to a neighbor. Apparently he'd rather play with his beeping gizmos than talk about lawn care.
Kids these days! They have no respect for their elders!
Despite all his lollygagging we gave him the benefit of the doubt and gave him a good job. Then he betrayed us! This is the thanks we get for your six-figure salary?
Back in my day we were happy to have a job at all! Spoiled brat!
You really think you're going to change anything? Fat chance. Probably just make things worse. We'll probably find a better way to lie to you. Why do you even try? Give up.

Disobeying orders is THE WORST.Honestly, the second paragraph opened with, "According to The Washington Post, he has not been a regular presence around his mother’s house for years." A non sequitor brimming with innuendo. But wait, isn't not living with your mom for years when you are 29 exactly what society expects? Had it been otherwise, Brooks would've assuredly pointed out how odd it is that a fully grown man still sponges off his parents because of his sense of entitlement and poor morals.
