Sam Linmenhan (15) has just received his 115th like on a photo of himself and his other underage friend that he uploaded to social media
The photo in question is from last night’s house party and sees Sam and the other young man posing coolly next to a six-pack of beer.
While this photo has elicited a stream of appraisal from Sam’s peers, it’s the opinion of one of his more voyeuristic followers that the Advocate is interested in.
“Looks like Aunty Sal and Uncle Tony have let Sam start drinking” Cleo Linmenhan said to her partner while scrolling through Facebook.
“LOL [sic] he’s uploaded a photo of him and a mate next to an unopened 6 pack, but then he’s also got a 5-minute-long story of the two of them drinking the beers!” Laughed Cleo.
“Haha, what a little dork!”
“Actually no, that’s unfair. I remember when I had my first drink. I’m just grateful that social media wasn’t around when I was a teenager.”
While Cleo was very quick to laugh at her young cousin losing his beer virginity, his eagerness and pride in drinking is something that will hopefully take the spotlight off her own degenerate behaviour at family christmases to come.
More to come.
