it's good to have kids because they completely occupy all your time and thoughts for at least two decades that you'd otherwise spend struggling to cope with the meaninglessness of existence instead

if your kid's a fuckup and needs support well into adulthood it's even better because then the distraction might last until you die

You know how people pick up their dogs shits when they take it for walks?

Well Imagine if it was your own poo poo, except you had to keep it forever, and it could walk and talk and was a complete parasite until you could throw it into the streets to fend for itself.

gently caress having kids.

Tonight I got stoned off my rear end, went snow tubing and then had a chicken burger. I am so happy I'm single and childless :)

Maybe one day....but I ain't in a rush!!

My understanding is the entire point of kids is that you can pressure them to achieve your dreams, which you never could. Someone please confirm this.

Kids are an extension of you mortality, you are in their genes. Is this what you really want? A world without your genes in it?

Having kids rules. 4-year-old pals are awesome and edgy Aartek joke out of the way yadda yadda. Not having kids is fun, don't get me wrong, but it's not a binary thing; having kids is just a different kind of fun. Life owns unless you actively try to gently caress yourself out of its owningness

I dunno, i find being able to do what I want, when I want and however I want a lot more appealing than cleaning up little jimmys poo poo for the 4th time today while my wife and i who've had less than 5 hours sleep combined start a screaming match over nothing at all because our nerves are shot due to fatigue.

but that's just me.

Nope, that's everybody. The rough part smoothes out right on the cusp of actual murder/suicide if you don't gently caress it up too fiercely

bringing a child into the world only to endure years of existential crisis and the fear of inevitably becoming a forgotten clump of dirt when they were doing just fine not existing in the first place seems kinda cruel imo

also my own life is short enough that i'd like to maximize the fun through expensive hobbies and trips, though your mileage may vary

Can't wait to die alone in peace and quiet without a procession of people I have to pretend to like filing by to awkwardly say goodbye while blubbering all over me.

In the meantime I can do anything I want any time I want and the only person I have to worry about is me.

Solitude rules.

...which you never could because you had to give up all your hopes and dreams to pay for plastic toys and wipe spit-up all day long.
