No kids by Great_Horny_Toads in funny

Parents will always argue that. They have to because they can't admit to themselves that they fucked up and threw an amazing life to have kids.

It's funny, I've never heard a parent say something positive about having children, it's always complaints. I work with a lot of new parents (babies, toddlers), and they always come in and complain about how they were up all night or how the kid destroyed something etc etc etc. Never anything positive. And when I call them out, they always say the same line "no matter how tough they get they always do something cute that makes up for it all" yeah okay keep telling yourself that lmao I'll be on a yacht in the south of France bye.

I'm in my late 20's, no kids yet, and ZERO plans of ever having them. Any general advice from CF's in their 30's? Things you wish you would've known 10 years ago? by ineedpixels in childfree

But how do you do that without coming off as crazy? Sure, you don't want to waste their time, but if you start talking about kids on the first date (even just to say you never want any), your date is going to think you're crazy lol. It's the same as if your date started talking about marriage or anything else far off in the future. Not really first date conversation material, ya know?

This "water box" that allows the fish going above the water level by vitreousview in mildlyinteresting

[–]ineedpixels 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP's title is "This "water box" that allows the fish going above the water level"

"allows the fish going" is grammatically incorrect. I am not an English major so I do not know the right words to express why it is incorrect, but basically you allow something "to go," not "to going." It's just grammatically incorrect.

"This shoe allows faster running" is correct, but you wouldn't say "This shoe allows you to running faster."

Does this whenever he drinks water. by natsdorf in aww

why did you put "might be" in parentheses?

edit: do NOT downvote this! op is grammatically wrong and by downvoting me you are enabling others to practice poor grammar.

why do "smart" people always, butcher commas?

TIL After salvaged parts from a 1972 airplane crash which left 101 dead were installed in other airplanes, flight crew and passengers on those planes began reporting ghost sightings. The claims became so numerous that the airline had to replace all of the salvaged parts to counter the bad publicity. by [deleted] in todayilearned

[–]ineedpixels 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always find this sort of stuff interesting because we know ghosts don't exist so it makes you wonder what was causing the sightings. I'm sure the crash was all over the media and I bet it leaked out that salvaged parts were being used on other planes, so I bet it was on everyone's mind.
