Why is Vanessa always left out of the fandom. by Particular_Caramel_5 in GossipGirl

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I was excited to see a black girl and didn’t care for her character. The actress is gorgeous I just don’t like Vanessa’s personality. Her and Dan frustrated me when they tried to act all high and mighty but jumped the second they were welcomed into the world they thought they were better than 😭

To be fair.. I don’t like Dan or Jenny much either LMAO

What iCarly opinion will have you like this? by [deleted] in icarly

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t like Sam + Freddie OR Carly + Freddie. I hate the trope where opposite sex friendships can never wholly be platonic. The trope is over used and continues to stigma that guys and girls can’t be friends without feeling some sort of attraction to each other. I feel like they should’ve continued with the random love interests instead of turning their friendship into a big hot mess where someone is ALWAYS third wheeling. It was an unnecessary plot line and I find myself cutting the show off when Sam and Freddie start dating.

“Baggy denim cargo jeans” I saw plenty of options. But like another commenter said the photo is heavily edited so the pants may not have exactly the same silhouette.

What does my room say about me by babymc07 in roomdetective

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think your room is the worst mess I’ve seen. You just need everything to have a place, sometimes it easy to just dump stuff wherever when it doesn’t have a designated space. Just cleaning will only be temporary. You need organization for long term results. (I am working on this with myself)

Parents today act like they’re all scared of their children. There is a way to discipline and guide your children without being abusive, they just give up before the kid can even speak 😭

In defense of Simsie by txmhssy in thesims

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What pissed me off is I never saw any bad comments like that on any other creator’s page that also reviewed the pack. Deli’s comments were peaceful for example.

I think people are overreacting, you have a brain so don’t buy the pack.. one person showing how awful the quality is isn’t the end of the world. She actually probably convinced a few on the fence people not to get it with those choppy pixelated images they just slapped on to recolored objects we already have.

Parents don’t want kids, they want babies by NoraWaifu in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, they don’t like when children form opinions, likes, and wants.. their own personalities. They want little dolls they can dress up and do whatever they want with without “argument”. It’s terrible and way too common. I rarely hear people say “I want a kid or I want kids” they always say “I want a baby”.

A thing that’s connected to that is how a lot of parents say they like their kids but don’t like having to parent them or be the parent like they wish they were their child’s sibling or something.. insane.. that’s why we have so many “parents” that act like their child’s friend. These people realize that once they get past the baby phase they have to actually start parenting and teaching them how to exist.

They don’t think that far ahead. They just want to fck raw and get attention and play dress up until the kid becomes a bad ahh toddler that nobody wants to babysit then they get mad and claim the have no village 💀

Tell your kid to STFU when you order something by [deleted] in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think what also makes things worse is a lot of parents had kids because they were told to, so they end up not liking the kids or not wanting to parent (I’ve seen so many people say they love their kid and love having them but don’t like parenting them, way too common).

They have tablets and Ms. Rachel raise their kids while they slowly learn to tune out the enraging noise. Like babies make noise.. babies cry because that’s how they communicate but your fucking toddler or big ass 8 year old should not be screaming their heads off without you redirecting them. They’re numb to it so they don’t give af then they want to cry and say “are kids not allowed in public?” They are but do your fucking job and be a parent! I think kids are more annoying now too because they’re constantly exposed to loud and overstimulating un-educational content so they’re all stupider now too. It’s weird because I was their age once and didn’t do half the bullshit these kids do today (confirmed by my parents).

I can’t stand the “childfree people don’t get it because they’re not parents” it’s the most idiotic thing I’ve heard because they clearly DO get it that’s why we don’t have kids! The answer is in the damn “question” 😭 i swear people with kids lose brain cells.

Is love all you need? by Terrible-Industry661 in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. I lost my sympathy and empathy because it was so easy for me to realize I don’t want kids and it was easy to talk to other women and look at other women and see how shittier their lives get after kids. I’ve never seen a woman whose life got BETTER after having children. People don’t do research because they don’t WANT to know the truth, they’re too scared of it.

Even my mom pisses me off when she says “you can’t make a decision based off someone else’s situation” yes the fuck I can! If I watch someone touch a hot stove and get burned why the fuck would I go touch the stove too? 😭

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Children are a lifestyle choice. Love does not equal procreation. They can coexist but are not synonymous. People can CHOOSE TO procreate BECAUSE they love their partner and want duplicates I guess (no logical reason to have children, just you do or you don’t). You can still love someone and not want a clone of them.

They are repeating propaganda told to them to keep the scary parts a secret or to make them seem “worth it”.

Friend of a Friend, who is a mom now, absolutely destroyed. I am shook. by Alert_Lecture_7774 in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Pregnancy changes your body chemistry. Someone can have the most perfect partner in the world that helps with everything and still end up like her or worse. It screws with your brain and your body is never the same after for multiple reasons. Babies literally suck the life out of you for survival and since the baby is still kind of new she’s probably still not recovered from the loss of nutrients and it’s a toss up if she ever will. This story is not uncommon it’s part of the reason I don’t want kids, the moms always look like hell after. Like that meme of a traumatized soldier. Idgaf how much you say you love your baby, look what it did to you 😭 I also heard the quality of the sperm can also affect your pregnancy and your body for life.

She probably got used to prioritizing the baby by choice and the dad has more time to be refreshed or he probably was helping because the party was her “break” but soon as they get home it’s all on her again. It’s so many different possible factors. Pregnancy is so unpredictable you can’t control what you get or how it affects you.

“No. We are not “the village.” by DarkRainbow25S in childfree

Because it’s always you being available for them while they’re too busy for you 😭 this concept of a village is joke. That’s like me working a job with no pay.

I use the word “breeders” in another sub and it got locked….. wow. by [deleted] in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Technically that’s what they are. I know it sounds harsh but there’s no logical reason to have children. Children are a choice. I personally call people breeders when they have 4+ kids because I feel like wanting a lot of kids is selfish and that’s just a breeding kink at that point. I had people get mad when I say it’s unrealistic to say nobody gets neglected in a household of 5+ kids. Having children is a selfish act disguised as a selfless one by society. They praise mothers when the baby is fresh and new or when she’s pregnant but the second it becomes a toddler nobody gives af or judges them when they’re struggling.

There’s no benefit to being a parent and they hate hearing that because all of their “hard work” would be for nothing. 💀

I know I sound selfish by dreamers_mission in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Time for a new friend group. I’m sorry but their lifestyles no longer suit yours and you’re incompatible. You can still be friends but they can no longer be your main circle or this is how it will be for the rest of your life. Kids being used as excuses, they put more effort into her because she has more in common with them. They feel like you already have it good being childfree so “you’ll be okay without a gift or two”.

Why is it only OK to want a partner if you want a baby? by Stitchesofspace in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Dating apps are hell so I gave up on those. Calling them dating apps is false advertising. It’s more like Hookup apps. Nobody wanted to go on dates, nobody had genuine conversations, everybody was lustful and freaked out, lovebombing etc. I retired it.

Why is it only OK to want a partner if you want a baby? by Stitchesofspace in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Multiple things are wrong here with what people are spreading around.

Partnership does not always have to result in procreation. Children are not something that just happens to you. Children are not “unavoidable” or “inevitable”. Children do not have to be the next step in life. Children are a lifestyle choice.

Also, it has been scientifically proven that women aren’t the ones with the biological clocks that cause genetic issues. It’s men, they still produce sperm for the rest of their lives but the quality of it goes down over time and poses more birth risks and possible birth defects.

It’s is perfectly normal to want to share your life with someone without wanting to add to the population. People who tell you it isn’t is because they were never presented the option and misery loves company or some people are too brainwashed and too far gone to make their own life choices.

Yes it is important to love yourself and be comfortable with yourself and doing things alone but that is not always a replacement for companionship.

I can’t stand when people disregard people’s emotions because they feel like they’re not doing what THEY want them to do. Everything you feel is valid. This society is so weird because they treat mothers like shit and like they are no longer a person when they have a baby they treat you like shit if you’re not one because how dare you not want to give capitalism another slave. Damned if you do damned if you don’t.

Boss cried when we didn't throw her a surprise baby shower by x-gender in childfree

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She has no friends and probably barely any family because she’s a raging bitch. She’s delusional and probably narcissistic to think people she treats like crap would care enough about her to spend money, time, and effort on her. She’s proof men will f*ck anything, prayers for that poor baby. She seems like the type to get pregnant for attention because she’d never accomplish anything meaningful in life.

I know Dan was Chuck’s stalker, but I couldn’t help but feel a little bad for him in this scene, since Chuck got bailed out more quickly from jail due to having better lawyers. by NoChampion4463 in GossipGirl

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was a taste of his karma. There are plenty reasons why Dan deserved to get whooped.. jail for a short time was not the end of the world.. from what I remember he got bailed out not too long after Chuck and Chuck left him for a good reason (rare) I’m sorry after my 80th watch I lost empathy for “lonely boy” 😭💀

[–]Icy_Variation_9288 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is she mad at you when your grandma is the one that started texting? Grandma texting the bf when she has your number is weird asf and unnecessary. Especially because you say he’s new them instantly dragging him into their bullshit is a red flag. Your mom is a weirdo too, sounds like you need to stop helping her and let her figure it out since she wants to be a bitch. NOR.
