I've never wanted kids but now that my friends have started having them I'm even more sure. I rarely hear anyone say anything positive about parenting.

Of course it is. Because there is NO logical, intelligent reason to have kids. On balance, they are no good for you, as an individual.

I didn't want kids when I got married 32 years ago. Now, I'm really happy to say I didn't give in to the societal pressures that still existed then. And so many of my friends whispered "you were right" after their kids were born

My husband's brother and wife told us not to have kids when we told them we were thinking about it. They had two and we ended up not having any.

I knew it! Reproduction is a trap encouraged only by the most primitive parts of the brain.

Honestly most parents I know IRL, say this stuff to me all the time. That they love their kids, but if they could take it back.... When we tell them we don't want kids, they say, "Good... DON'T DO IT!".

Shhhh, don't tell people that!

Me too! The stench of the commoners make me sick! We let those peasants out of the fields and now they want to fly. Eff them !

Yep. An emotional desire for revenge and a state's right to execute are two different things.

He most certainly deserved it, but that doesn't mean the state should have the right to do it.

Ugh, people who don't realize their bathroom is gross ... it amazes me when I visit someone's house, and they seem like a very well put together clean person, and their bathroom is covered in scum and hair. Nasty.

Why? I enjoy watching (good) tv far more than I do cleaning. I also spend my free time skiing, hiking, running, reading, enjoying a few pints with friends, going to the park w/ my dog, etc. Who is to say how someone should spend their time? If having house cleaners come every 2 weeks leaves me more time to sit down…

They weren't lazy! Just nice dudes who didn't really see a mess or know how to clean properly. For instance, things like wiping the kitchen counters, stovetop, and table or sweeping the floor didn't occur naturally to them when they cleaned - so they'd do the dishes and maybe clean the sink and would happily declare…

Canada will one day have to answer for it's crimes against humanity but they have also given us Nathan Fillion so I think we can give them a lighter sentence when they do.

That's called a False Dichotomy. There are actually other answers than that.

Left-overs? Really? That is disgusting.She is not less than you because she had sex with a couple men.(or 10 0r 20 0r 1000)

The short answer is the simplest, and the one that will get me the most shit on Deadspin: the patriarchy. Police departments are overwhelmingly male, and have been taught by a misogynist society from birth that their experiences are valid, but experiences that differ from their own are either suspicious or fictional.…

Lobster mac and cheese is one of those ideas that sounds brilliant until you try it. Then you realize why no one was fucking making it until five years ago.

I agree. I think the part of Paleo movement that is great is that it's popularizing the notion of decreasing inflammation through foods. Good for you for curing your asthma- I do notice that a lot!
