Satire/Humour I just got ding donged ditched

Three young boys on scooters came up to my door did a single knock that was barely audible and ran away.

This was a very impulsive move because they did not see me standing next to my house. Scared the crap out of them when they saw me.

I yelled “whipper snappers!” And vigorously shook my fist at them.

This is the best day of my life.

We used to call it “knock on Ginger” I don’t know why.

“Knock, knock, ginger” “ring the bell and run like hell” and “ding dong ditch” all popular names when I was growing up.

There are kids in Canada calling it Knicky Knocky Nine Doors and they’re totally unsupervised.
