This Tik Tok Challenge Can't Possibly End Badly

Tik Tok, that Chinese Communist tool for, among other things,  dumbing-down non-Chinese youth, has come out with a new challenge:

The Door Kick Challenge: Attempting to kick down a stranger's door and then run away without getting caught.

This one seems almost like a Darwinian plot on Tik Tok's part to winnow out the stupid conformist types who might try this challenge. 

It should not need saying, but apparently it does need to be said, as there's plenty of dumb teens doing this challenge:  

Do NOT go around late at night (or any other time for that matter) trying to kick other people's doors in.  

Nothing good is going to come out of acting like a home invader attempting a forced entry into an occupied dwelling.

Yeah, The Kids Are Alright

It's not all gloom and doom here in Michigan, and there's good people who reaffirm your faith in humanity.

For those of you who bemoan kids today, you can look to High Schoolers like Garret Zuk to see there's still some great ones coming out the pipeline: The Detroit Free Press: Senior Garret Zuk's selfless act helps sophomore Devin Kimberlin reach goal

This kid has a 4.22 grade-point average, is the school's co-salutatorian, scored a fantabulous 34 on the ACT (36 is perfect) and plans to major in mechanical engineering with electives tailored to aerospace.

And on top of that he's got real character.

Read the entire linked article and you'll understand why.
