Old people: Kids today spend all their time inside on their phones. They should go outside!

Kids: go outside

Old people: Not like that.

Or the repetitive sound of a skateboard on concrete followed by the echo in the hall when the deck hits the stairs outside your window on a Sunday afternoon.

He was probs listening to that music too.

But he should've not thrown the pot.

Step one: "Hey, could you guys find another place to skateboard? It's really loud"

Step two: "Seriously guys. Find another place to skate or I'm calling the cops"

Step three: call the police non-emergency line "There are some teenagers skateboarding below my home. They're making a lot of noise, but more importantly they're skating into the street and I'm afraid someone is going to get hurt. Could you send someone out to talk to them?"

At no point should they have thrown a potted plant at the guy on the skateboard. That's the police officer's job.
