Sometimes I look at my children and wonder where on Earth they came from. They have strange interests that I can’t relate to, they have opinions that don’t align with anyone else in the family, and honestly they can be rather dense. I consider myself to be a fairly logical and intelligent human, so it is always shocking when my offspring prove their idiocracy to me. Recently, this was the case when my oldest son decided he could bring illicit substances into our house and conceal it from me. Nice try, but you’re not that smart. I noticed that something was wrong one day when I heard of the central heating and cooling system making more noise than usual. It seems like the air conditioner was struggling to efficiently transfer our indoor air through the ductwork as usual. Every room seems like it had more high-powered air conditioning blowing through the vents, but the AC unit sounded like it was struggling at the same time. I was walking through our house, trying to figure out what was going on with the central cooling system when I opened my son’s door. Immediately, a wall of hot and humid air greeted me inside his bedroom. I walked over to the air vent and found it completely blocked up with pillows from the outside. When I removed the fluffy obstacles from in front of the air vent, the pungent odor of weed immediately filled my nostrils. Clearly, my son had hidden his smoking supplies inside of the air vents and blocked the opening to the air duct to suppress the smell. I have no idea why he thought this was a good solution, considering how unpleasantly hot and humid it was in his bedroom. At least his stupidity makes it easy to catch him in the act.
