Won't you be my neighbor?

While stepping out onto the front porch to check the mail, I see two 'tweens sitting on the front stoop across the street. They appeared to be having fun innocently heckling the passersby. As they're both looking in the same direction, without noticing me, one yells, HE SUCKS...AND I SWALLOW! before they both burst into 13-year-old boy hilarity.

Although my immediate reaction was to shout back, Do you have ANY IDEA what you just said?! My hunch is neither of them have a clue what those behaviors entail. Instead we all locked eyes staring at each other for way too long.

Even in the Neighborhood of Make Believe, I doubt Mr Rogers or Lady Elaine ever dealt with this.
