It is uncanny how much this sounds like my middle school experience in south eastern VA. I got bullied hard for being non-religious, and targeted for reading Harry Potter also. If only I had a nickle for every time someone told me I was going to hell. I actually went to church a few times with a friend because I was…

Let’s hope their right wing has more backbone than ours. Not that it’s a very high bar to get over

This just makes me depressed. I miss them so much, please come back!

Same!

I’ve been waiting for so long for someone to tell me that *sniffle*

There are literally no other people on the planet who cause me such unreasonable rage as Kid Rock. I have always hated him, and the last few years have only given me more fuel. i’m not even sure why, there’s just something about that extremely punchable face of his that I loath unreasonably.

I spent most of my childhood making an argument to the adults about why I shouldn’t have to sit at the kids table. It never worked. But I didn’t give up either. And now when there are large gatherings and someone has to sit at the kids table I flat out refuse and do not budge. Never again.

This is me. I loudly complain about people’s annoying children, my two most frequent comments being “Control your spawn” and “if they can bring their kids in here, I don’t understand why I can’t bring my dog here. He’s way cleaner and better behaved.” Don’t care, don’t subject me to your annoying spawn. Not everyone…

Same!! I used to babysit when I was younger and I absolutely hated it but my parents made me do it because it was responsibility building and a learning experience. I always made the kids watch a movie and was hella strict about bed time. Anything to not have to deal with them more than necessary

And that’s my biggest fear

I agree, and I absolutely would be a shitty parent, which is usually my follow up argument. Why would you want me to be a parent when I would be a bad parent? No kid deserves that.

My aunt posted that on FB. It took a lot of willpower not to barf on my keyboard and then yell at her

Follow up with “bless your heart” to really go for the slam dunk!

When people ask me that I respond with “I have a dog”, that tends to throw them off just long enough for me to change the subject

I do genuinely dislike children and I’m not afraid to tell people that. It’s usually the only thing that shuts them up about it. Although I do frequently get the “it’s different when they’re your own” response. Maybe stop telling me how to live my life.

I’m from rural VA, and live in Seattle now, and I’ve been asked that question multiple times in both places. That and why I’m single. I happen to enjoy being single, but no one accepts that. They think I just can’t get a date and am lying to myself. Same with the kids question in my experience, they just stare at me…

Would somebody PLEASE take away twitter from our Moron in Chief???

Well, at least now we know who to blame. Bright side.

Please elaborate on these amusing ads, because I need something that isn’t just awful all around

Same, some local paper put out an article last week about how Seattle is a prime target and I was like ok, because my anxiety isn’t bad enough already, could you not?
