Less, I am very impressed with your apparent tolerance and understanding, though a person’s age is no excuse for them to show disrespect in any form, whether they are teenagers, adults, or those of us who are in our dotage. No excuse.

However, I am surprised that you apparently only hear grunts when teenagers speak as I find them to be very articulate, especially in public places.

I am sure you will happily practice this tolerance should you yourself ever be ‘cheeked’ or grunted at in a disrespectful manner - and yes, I still believe in the Easter bunny.

(By the way, I too am a member of the tongue-in-cheek club in case you haven’t guessed, though sometimes we could be referred to as sarcastic b*******, no disrespect intended).
