I told my mom that I'm gay. I'm actually not, but it's really effective at getting her to stay the fuck out of my life and she no longer has any interest in such things from me.

She also doesn't try to hook me up with anyone anymore because she's a christian.

Dating and already having nearly grown children in your thirties is also weird. People assume you aren’t allowed to have standards (single moms are for fun) or to raise their small children for them (mommy shopping). Or you are looking for a replacement parent (absolutely not). It’s…something.

"didn't I tell you? I donated to a bank. I've got like 30 kids, mom."

Fending off both family and coworkers (friends tend to get it). Can’t get mad at them when they mean well, but it can be a bit tiresome. I know who I am and I’ll never change!! Lol.

Happened to me for like 15 years. I'm so glad she finally gave up it, especially when I was vehemently against having kids in the first place.

✂️✂️ Best decision I've ever made. To be fair, though, the bar was subterranean, but that also explains the necessity.

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

I am starting to think I should also get my wires crossed. I see no downside for me now that I'm already in my 30s and don't really want kids.

There was none for me. My shitty marketplace insurance plan even paid for every last dime of it to the tune of over $6,000 (in magical, negotiated, inflated healthcare dollars, that is). I suppose they know as well as anyone how much kids cost.

You have a baby... Then...

second breakfast meme, but with second baby as text

Looking at the family who have three kids and want more...

Forgot to give credit where credit is die, this still is from episode 3 of the auralnauts version of Star Wars. I love pretty much everything they've done and a million percent recommend them:

Ohhhhhh, I was thinking it was from Backstroke of the West but I couldn’t fully place it

[–] MyBrainHurts@piefed.ca 1 points 45 minutes ago

I had never heard of Backstroke before, just looked it up and cannot wait to watch it sometime!

That's Auralnauts!

Baby time! It's baby time!

La la la la la la. Du du du du duu. Du du du du duu. Du du du du - it's baby time!

Here's the original Artists' page- AURALNAUTS! If you don't know Auralnauts, then you are in for a real treat, just watch their stuff from the beginning!

Thanks for sharing the much more appropriate link!

Their stuff is so damned good. Existential Stormtroopers always cracks me up.

The meme is actually an attempt to exorcize Babytime from my head, where it's been stuck for the better part of a week.

“What kind of polish did you use on this table? The sheen is ridiculous! Send a bottle of whatever it is back with Darth Maul”

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 2 points 7 hours ago

What kind of polish?

The Warsaw dialect?

You are only one who:

Has a mother that wants you to to spawn kids? Finds that dating over 30 is difficult? Went on a date with a nice lady? A combination of all three?
