Today, my 17-year-old son came home with a black eye saying he ran into a pole at school. I asked the principal if we could see the tapes. He actually did run straight into a pole. And not just once, twice. FML

He didn't give an excuse. I was laughing my ass off in the office though.

Maybe you should talk to him about the difference between Platform 9 3/4 and Narnia's lampost.

I've got a pole for you to run into . . . I know. Just no. But she gave me an irresistible setup.

Unless he was distracted by an accident or parade of naked cheerleaders id suggest you check your son's room for drug paraphernalia. I would assume he's either on drugs or you raised an idiot.

Damn pole kept jumping in his way. I hate when that happens.

Man, I don't know who's better -- the school that tapes its students' every move or the parents who can only trust their kid after seeing a video that supports what he says.

That will probably serve as a lesson to watch where he's going from now on. Still pretty amusing. At least he was honest about it - and the good part is that it wasn't a poor cover-up lie for being bullied/getting in a fight. I'd prefer to have a distracted/clumsy kid to the alternative, personally.

Does this mean he did it on purpose? Or is he just that much of a klutz?
