I don't like them, and when people pull the "OHH SO YOU HATED YOURSELF HMMM??" card I just say that in hindsight my stupid behavior and decisions aren't something I would now tolerate.
YouSwollen Goat said:I am not a big fan of the little ones. What I find amusing is that I've noticed whenever people talk about their kids, it's always stuff like "Little Billy shaved the cat again today" or "Sue ate her art project this morning"; never "Johnny got straight A's!" or "Look at the beautiful drawing Lori made for me!". Then they tell you how wonderful their children are and how glad they are to have them. Then why are there NEVER any happy stories? Sounds like they're trying to convince themselves just as much as me.
And you.thethingthatlurks said:Children? Yeah, they're all right with a little BBQ sauce. Okay, okay, no more cannibalism jokes, no matter how tasty the runts may be...
I guess I'm supposed to be at an age where I no longer find the thought of having children horrible, but I never really outgrew that. I detest children, I truly do. They aren't precious, beautiful little angels. That's just a bunch of dopamine coupled to your instinct to protect your spawn telling you so. They scream, they yell, they destroy, they fight, they are needy, they expect praise when none is warranted, they interrupt you, etc.
Plus raising a child would cost about $500,000 total, so it's a horrible investment. Would you throw half a million at a pile of flesh that will grow to resent you? Keep the money, find some fulfilling job/hobby, life happily ever after. Alternatively, VEGAS! It's not like humanity is in danger of dying out, right?
