TopicIf you dont have kids.... why not?

12amMadman posted...


My gf and I are almost mid 30's and people are always giving us shit for not wanting kids. We usually just lol but some people seem strangely affected by a decision that doesn't effect them.

My wife and I waited later than most of my friends my age to even start trying to have kids, then found out there were complications and it took another 3 or 4 years to actually have one, so yeah, I got a lot of that being in my mid-30's. Like my actual close friends never really bothered me about it, it was usually acquaintances and random strangers. But yes I don't understand why people think its their business if I even want to have kids or not, or if I do but can't, etc. Like I wasn't really too bothered by it because whatever people ask stupid things sometimes but my wife would get really upset. >_>

And of course now people ask us about having a second child. :(

Under Disney it's probably going to get a PG-13, which would be jarring.
Not because a Deadpool movie need a R rating for it to be good (I completely disagree with that), but because the previous two films were R rated, so might as well keep it consistent at this point.

Yeah, although I dunno maybe they will release it under the Fox banner and keep it R rated, and not have it have any ties to the MCU or anything, other than him probably referencing it a ton.

If they fold him into the MCU though I would assume it'd be PG13, which like you said wouldn't be the end of the world and instantly make it terrible, but it'd be weird.

Kinda like with Mario 64 DS, you *could* include Super Mario All-Stars and the GBA remakes. Some of the GBA ones had a fair amount of extra/different content. The Wii U VC version of SMA4:SMB3 had all the e-reader levels which are a neat extra.

Sequel trilogy has loads of problems, especially TLJ, but I just don't like much of anything about the prequels. Some neat things set up that had potential but none of it really goes down like it should have.

My wife and I always hang out with the same couple on NYE as long as we've been married and I did before my wife was around (although used to be a bigger party with more people), nothing exciting or grand scale anymore, which is fine because we're old and tired and have kids, etc.

IF for some reason that fell through I doubt my wife and I would do anything any different than any other night other than maybe possible turning to NBC or whatever at 11:58 to watch the ball drop.

Usually its money or gift cards these days. Which is fine. No one has enough money in my family to get something incredibly super awesome, and I usually just buy whatever "normal" things that I'd want, so, eh, rather just get to go out to dinner with a gift card or buy groceries or something. Not very exciting, eh?

My daughter is two and I got her some stuff I think she'll like. I really dig this age because she is pretty easily impressed and I can get her a fair bit of stuff without really spending much cause little kid toys are mostly cheap.

That's Mr. Beast's whole schtick. He donates a shit ton of money to random people or just uses it for ridiculous activities or experiments that no one else would ever do. Gets him a ton of views and subs, probably enough to fund him doing it in the first place.

I dunno Mega Man games are mostly pretty easy, except for a handful of encounters in the early games before they were balancing things well, but other than Lost Levels or SMB2J or whatever, Mario games aren't really that hard, either. Of course if you use the pause glitch in MM1 and menu glitch in MM2 those games are super, super easy. Dunno if we are allowed to use glitches in this discussion or not. >_>

I never played much Castlevania, so I really have sucked at it when I tried but can't really gauge it.

I've seen the theory floating around that all they really need to do is get the vote to be made into a secret ballot then they think they would get like half the republicans on board. >_>

Nostalgia can paint some pretty terrible games in a positive light. I experience this every time I attempt to play an old Castlevania game. I love them in theory, but I hate them in practice.

See I didn't get around to Castlevania until the last decade or so--and while I kind of see the appeal and can see if I'd had the games as a kid I'd have been into them, I don't really care much for them now. Nostalgia is definitely key.

Hard for me to look at it objectively, I've been playing the game for 30ish years or whatever and just know it so well that I don't need a map or to worry about health refills after dying. Although yeah the starting at 30 health is kind of a bad decision. Other than that though it just seems like most of it wouldn't be too hard with a little trial and error and exploration.

First, what responsible parent would allow their child to go to school with a MAGA hat specifically KNOWING the hatred people have for it. Seriously. I fucking love speeding on the highway, and I do it on my commute to work. But when the kids are in the car I drive the speed limit. This is a clear case of neglect on the part of the mother.


Yeah... I mean obviously people SHOULD be able to dress however they want, but you have to be aware of the risk (that again, the risk shouldn't exist, but it does!) to go out with something inflammatory or, I don't know, if you let your son where a dress, he should be able to, but you have to realize people may make fun of him or assault him. A woman should be able to wear nothing but her underwear and walk around in a bad part of town at 3am without any fear of being assaulted, but that isn't reality.
