Now I live in Tennesee. Did live in Michigan.
It was part of an art installation.

Popping bubble wrap is a source of satisfaction for many people. For a man in Canada, however, it may be the source of legal troubles. Police in Vancouver are asking for tips from the public as they work to track down the unidentified man shown in a video damaging a piece of art at the Vancouver Art Gallery, the Vancouver Sun reports. The piece, titled “Delta Trim,” is crafted from moose hide, Velcro, zip ties, reflective tape, and bubble wrap.

I know I can't resist it. A few months ago my wife and I went to Walmart. Blowing across the parking lot was a large piece of bubble wrap. I picked it up and started popping it as we walked into Walmart. My wife wasn't happy, she told me to stop acting like a kid and stop popping that. So I popped it more. The end of the story, I was in the dog house the rest of the day. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

i can buy it by the sheet if i wanna but that would be a very bad idea. lol!
 
Last week I saw 2 young boys who should have know better popping bubble wrap that were in rolls for sale in Walmart.
The women who I assume was the mother was chatting away with another women.
I know she saw the kids do it because every once in awhile she glanced at them and one went to talk to her.
The manager was nearby and finally approached the women and pointed at the kids.
I didn't stick around to see what happened but I hope she ended up having to pay for the roll.

My abhorrence towards today's society and it's overall lack of respect for others and for things, in addition to today's younger generations upbringing is at an all-time high these days.

It was a winter morning, I was out sweeping off the front stairs, and our neighbour, an elderly man was shoveling. Along comes a mother with 4 young children behind her, and two of her kids start climbing up on the snow bank our neighbour just finished piling, knocking a portion of it down onto the sidewalk again, and so our neighbour let's the kids have it, "get off of there, I just finished piling that up", and the mother, as if put out and put off by the elderly mans words says to her kids, "come on kids let's get going".

Not an apology to our elderly neighbour from the mom, not a reprimand to her two children, nothing, just, "come on kids let's get going".

I'm not surprised by the ho-hum attitude I'm seeing and hearing about today.

Had it been one or more of my children knocking the snow bank down, I would have scolded them good and proper, then had them clean up the mess they made. As for the bubble wrap incident you witnessed, Ruth, I hope so, too, that the mother was handed a bill for the damaged store-shelf goods.

When I was growing up I would have gotten a spanking on the bum for such, nowadays I don't know who's more immature, the kids or the parents.
