LOL *NSFW* *The new Demote thread*

I need to talk to Phil and Chris more about 22 Jump Street. The Lego Movie I can't wait for!

 

We have talked about other options including adoption but to be honest we are fine as we are. Neither of us has any burning desire to have kids. We have each other and our families, there are plenty of children on both sides with the added benefit that we can choose when to see them and when to have our own time to ourselves.

Vasectomies are awesome!

Seriously, not only is "no kids, now or ever" the #1 thing on my requirements list for a partner, but both my G/f and I are fixed.

 

I know a couple who got "fixed" and ended up having twins. The miracle of modern medicine

 

Just seems messed up for me. Having children and passing on your knowledge feels like the closest thing to the 'meaning of life' that we'll ever really know.

 

Hey, if it makes you happy, go for it. I'm not passing judgment on people who have kids, I'm just saying it's not for everyone, especially me!

 

well I have 3 kids under the age of 6 and one due in April. its the most amazing feeling nothing beats it, and im only 33 haha!

 

Wow, go you! I've got 3 under 5. We're not having anymore and I'm getting a vasectomy as soon as my GP will let me. I love having kids, but I know my limits XD

 

Just caught my eye

Hands down the shittiest book I read in 2013.

And then someone thought to turn it into a movie.

Demotivation successful.

 

Sounds like it keeps you young and on your toes!

 

When you're from a large family it's not so urgent, 14 in the next generation carrying the name of Smith, another in the generation beyond that. I can pass on what I know to the next generation without having children of my own. My youngest nephew is also my god son and I plan on not repeating the same errors that my own god father made - I'll actually be there for him as he grows up. He's the son of my best friends so I feel that I ought to do my best. Besides, I don't think that my genes are ones that ought to be passed on, too many things just don't work.

 

oh thats so much win.

Pffffttt.....amateur. I have 3 under 5 and I'm 22

 

Triplets will do that.
(Disclaimer - no kids because no partner)

 

What about just investing in the human species? Do productive work that makes people's lives better, support better education and health care, take care of the environment. Support your local community centre. Do something for charity. Look after your nieces and nephews and after children in general. Contribute to worldly knowledge through hobbies and interests. Inspire by example. Leave a legacy to humanity.

It doesn't have to be big, grandiose stuff. If we all do a few small things every day, the human species will soar.

Reminds me of when Paramount tried to copyright "USS Enterprise". The navy were not amused.
