Having Kids is Just Kind of Mean At This Point
Seriously, cut it out
Not an attack on average or good parents just an opinionated observation of

Seriously, why do people keep doing it? I don’t want to be here right now and if I was and I am a betting man, I’d say better men and women than me feel precisely the same way, or worse. Yet, they just keep on having kids. We keep populating this already kinda overly crowded place with more us. Little tiny we have to raise versions of ourselves mixed in with the person we most recently had intercourse with, and maybe even are married to, you can’t presume that last part in todays world, but believe me that’s a good thing.
