Who the FUCK invited Balt to speak at my eulogy?

Babies are cute and nice and as rp said on the parents' board, lying next to a sleeping baby and holding it is an incredibly peaceful experience. Lasts until at least age 3.
b. You can go "What If?" just as much about "what if I never had a kid?" as you can about "what if I had had a kid?" so I'm not sure where you were going with this.
c. I will be highly amused if your wife goes part-time or whatever and her income goes way down and you are more trapped than ever after the baby.
d. Respect doesn't necessarily mean being able to pay the mortgage.
e. The waffle tires on the SUVs should be able to kill (and tenderize) the kid just fine. Their heads are softer than adults'.

I've always been kinda happy. I just had unrealistic expactations about life. I've never acknowledged that it can't be a 24/7 party full of interesting people and things to do. In a twisted way, idealism and naivete and refusal to admit the nature of this toilet of commerce we swim in has made me cynical. Godamned hope. It fucks you every time...
And thanks...
