You recall incorrectly.

I'll pay you to agree with me
I'm not too worried, I'll die a few days before retirement.

This topic really makes me question my entire generation.

Well no post here is worse than prof's, which suggests that an empty house is better than having children and that the two are mutually exclusive to one another.
Do you know what a retirement home is
I don't personally like one or the other. I just think people like that, who believe the joy of creating and nurturing the next generation takes a backseat to having an empty house full of fleeting nothings, are people with whom I do not wish to associate. Humanity is a team sport and it's kind of like buying out of the game so you can have what is essentially a life that contributes nothing to our future as a species.

Why am I obligated to contribute to our future as a species? Humanity is gonna be just fine if I, personally, don't have a kid. I'm sorry if that causes you to not wish to associate with me! I'm still very much okay with other people having and raising kids and having a house full of family and people they love but that is super not for me or the way i live my life. nor do i live in an "empty house full of fleeting nothings". also if humanity is a team sport we crushed every other team pretty badly already i'm not sure you need me up to bat.

Didn't you already do this?
You are the one who said you don't want to associate with me!

If only Beethoven had spent his time raising kids instead of composing, then he would have really left a mark
I think the point of my statement is that planning for your empty retirement instead of bettering the world in some way is the problem.

I like this world where contributing to to overpopulation is the only worthwhile thing possible. Because it is completely impossible to improve the world without having kids.
I will never understand people who think that procreation is the only worthwhile goal. We are overpopulated. Pregnancy is fucking terrible.

I like how you just ignore adoption.

I'm not ignoring adoption. The thread is about having children, not about being a parent.
