Small children are much less annoying than teenagers. I present you as proof.

Ouch... That hurt...

Arxryl 11-17-2006 05:47 PM

You bring up a very good point. Younger kids are so innocent and naieve. Teenagers are more or less perverted and are very liable to do stupid things. (myself as proof.)

I understand that I have said I wanted kids, but after reading this entire thread I want to have children of my own even more.

So you're saying touching a stove to find out what "hot" is isn't stupid?

Arxryl 11-17-2006 06:33 PM

Judging that the child has had no previous experience with a stove, yes. I'd say it isn't stupid.
You do understand that teenagers have more knowledge than littler kids right? Assuming that's correct, the teenager "should" know not to touch a stove when it's on (due to previous experiences or not) and they "should" be smarter than half the people I know today who are currently teenagers. Younger children don't know all of the things we do, so over half, if not all, of their knowledge is from experience. We know more, but we choose to ignore it a lot of the time.

That had to be the most poorly crafted rebuttal that I have ever seen in these 25 years I've lived so far. For shame, sir. For shame.

Hmm, it seems we are moving from child-bashing to teenager-bashing. Nifty.

Goddamn. It was a joke. You really aren't very bright, are you?

Sure. A joke. an offensive and stupid joke. A rude and pathetic verbal-bashing, of course its a joke. Forgive me I do not carry you incredible sense of humour.

Facsimile 11-18-2006 12:32 AM

Well, I'm bringing out the big guns:
Studies reveal: Babies are stupid

OANST 11-18-2006 07:37 PM

It was so fucking long ago that I don't even remember what the joke was. I just know that I'm not interested enough to go back and look.

6-finger-fred 11-19-2006 10:19 AM

Kids are the most disguisting, ugly thing to walk this earth. I hate them and thier sick, nose-picking fingers. The answer is yes, I would love kids.

BTW, babies aren't stupid just undeveloped. Still funny though.

See? My (earlier) point exactly.

6-finger-fred 11-19-2006 10:29 AM

See, if you are mentally retarded you arn't going to know not to touch the stove until told otherwise, or till you touch it.

So think of babies as nasty, but cute and huggable mentals.

Patrick Vykkers 11-19-2006 11:14 AM

I think of human babies as annoying, ugly excuses for orangutans, which actually are cute. But that's just me.

Arxryl 11-19-2006 11:25 AM

Do you have any younger siblings?

Spirrow 11-19-2006 01:27 PM

Man, you people all talk like you were never kids yourself. And I've been
wondering if there was one thing you can say in front of OANST without
him tryng to be the best well-behaved gentleman when he replies.

Personally, I'd like one to two children. I'd prefer them to be daughters
but of course one of each (male and female) is okay, too. And that's
pretty much all I need as far as I know.

(Let's give it up for OANST.)

Statikk HDM 11-19-2006 02:30 PM

Thats why I don't want kids, though, Spirrow.
Who is more aware how terrible their children would be than the person reflecting on how terrible they were as a kid? In fact, I'm still a pretty piss poor imitation of life. I already have to spend the rest of my life with myself but at least that won't cost me a quarter of a million dollars.

I think I speak for most of us when I say 'That wasn't our choice.'

I remember being a kid, and those were some of the best years of my life. you didn't have to worry about what was cool, or what wasn't. You didn't have to worry about grades because they graded you on sutff like "works well with others". Also, you had an imagination back then. You could go to the park and play with swords and not get made fun of or teased.
They were the best years of my life and I would want to share that joy with someone else. Someone who still has the opportunity to be a kid, and to have fun all the time... Also I would want someone to take care of. Someone to love unconditionally. (no I'm not a pedophile. I mean "love" as the non-sexual way.)

Fuzzle Guy 11-21-2006 10:10 AM

Having Kids is just an excuse to see Disney Movies.

Arxryl 11-21-2006 10:27 AM

Heh. I watch Disney movies anyways. I probably always will.

Patrick Vykkers 11-21-2006 11:04 AM

[QUOTE=Arxryl;277451 you didn't have to worry about what was cool, or what wasn't. QUOTE]

I have never cared, and likely never will, what is cool, even post childhood. But maybe I'm just weird.

Arxryl 11-21-2006 11:09 AM

Oh...just maybe.
But that is good for you. I hope that you continue to not care about what people htink is cool.

Fuzzle Guy 11-21-2006 11:14 AM

I don't care. Probably why I get bullied. Which means I force myself to care, so I don't get bullied.

No, it's because you're a bitchy annoying bag of shit.

aaj111 11-21-2006 12:29 PM

Maybe when I'm well over 20. I want some years to myself. My mom says kids suck.

OANST 11-24-2006 06:56 PM

Hahahahahaha.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

That's awesome.

Spirrow 11-24-2006 07:19 PM

Naturally, we can't expect OANST's reply to be a good-natured, in-your-
neighborhood type response, seeing as he always has a knack for downgrading people and making everyone-even the newbies-look bad.

Jeez.:rolleyes:

used:) 11-24-2006 08:07 PM

I guess I'd like them when I'm aorund thirty. Maybe younger.
