Nothing, and I mean nothing, can convince me to have a child.

And air fryers are the new plants.

He understood us.

What if we trapped JD Vance in the body of an immortal baby you could endlessly neglect?

[–] trigg@lemmy.world 23 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I'd like evidence he isn't currently an immortal baby.

I would be willing to test the immortal claim with a sledgehammer

He sure is an immoral one.

He is clearly going for the "immortal baby" look, I'll give you that, but it is obvious he is just a poser and not a real immortal baby.

JD is no Danny Devito.

Real immortal babies emerge naked from couches, fake ones try to nakedly penetrate into them.

See, I'd still have to see, hear, smell the thing.

There is no element of a child under the age of say 10 that I enjoy at all.

That horrible shriek they make, happy or sad sounds exactly the same to me, makes my skin crawl.

No babies, not ever. Death before diapers!

The only thing I like about kids is I can take them to whatever goofy place I want and get them to give it a shot. Got my nephew and niece hooked on hotpot and dumplings.

Being an uncle kicks ass. Would I want kids of my own though? Questionable.
