So, this isn't something I'm peeved about but something I do want to slightly rant on.
So, it's nice out today. I decided to go out and read some Naruto manga. Unfortunately, the park I went to doesn't have alot of places to sit, except for the playground area where alot of little kids were playing. I eventually ended up going over there because I wanted a bench to sit on. I felt a little weird, but eh, I'm just minding my own business.
When I left as it was getting dark, I saw a couple cops for whatever reason. One wanted to talk to me so I did as he asked. He mentioned to me that some parents were a little concerned about my presence. But thankfully though he was friendly and I just cooperated. Gave him my id, number, etc.
But anyway, this is what I want to slightly rant on. Some parents are just so effing overprotective.
Look, I get it. I'm in my 20's, there are little kids around, I was alone so I understand why there might be some concern. But when you see a guy just minding his own business reading a graphic novel, do you really think they're going to ******* kidnap your little kid? To be honest, it really agitates me when people just assume stuff. Like I'm some kind of pedophile.
If you're really concerned, why don't you just ask what I'm doing there? I'd be more than happy to explain my presence.
*Sigh*
But, whatever. I'm just not gonna sit in that area again. It would be nice though if there were more benches to sit at.
