If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole.

These kids ran into some assholes.
And you know what, we've had assholes at competitions since Grok beat out Thag for Uma and took her to his cave.
It's what we are.
Let's not give this any more than it's due. Let's not raise this to new heights. It's bad manners and those people were assholes.
They're just trying to find a way to make the "snowflake lib-tards" upset.
The real story is this-- "Cool, smart, terrific kids laugh at stupid assholes because the cool kids get to go to the next stage of the competition."
There's no reason to make this a big deal. Assholes are assholes.

I don't care if the POTUS acts as a jackass. We teach our children it is not acceptable behavior.
