Darwin Olympics: Man-Child Gets Mad When Mom Won’t Buy Him a Skateboard

*Disclaimer . . . this dude is not an example of millennials and needs to have his millennial membership card taken away. Nor does he represent any other millennials. Thank you.  Sincerely, Jai.

Meanwhile in Utah . . .

One son really wanted a new toy, but his mom totally would not buy it for him . . . so the male offspring decided he would go ahead and commit a felony.

Yup!

We should probably mention, the “he” we are speaking of is an adult son.

A guy in Salt Lake City, Utah named Vincent Chacon (32) got supper upset when his mom would not give him the money to buy a $200 skateboard, so he took matters into his own hands.

Nope . . . not by being an adult and getting a job so he could afford the skateboard himself.

Dude robbed the store that was selling the skateboard he coveted.

When the store’s assistant manager tried to stop him — with a full on tug-of-war over the skateboard in process — the man-child reached into his pocket and claimed he had a gun . . . so, the assistant manager let the skateboard go.

Vincent did turn himself in to authorities the next day — probably because he was threatened with being grounded and sent to bed without dessert for a week — and now he’s facing a felony charge for aggravated robbery.

We are not going to tell him to “grow up and get a new hobby,” because if you can physically do it, skateboarding is totally fine at any age. You’ve heard of Tony Hawk, right? Dude is in his fifties, and even though he’s professionally retired, you know he is still getting some serious air at skateparks everywhere.

Plus, if you have ever checked out Hopkinsville Skatepark, you know what we are talking about!

That said . . . DUDE, GET A JOB!!!

Want to see his mugshot? Sure, you do!

HERE it is. 🙂
