[Timu]

Gaf's demographics are mid twenties and male, so kids aren't going to be that popular.


But there are a surprisingly good number of parents on here.

Late 20s for me, but yeah.

Kids and me get along so well that I can't not raise a kid some day. Maybe in like 10 years though

You plan to actually have kids?=O

 

[marrec]

Oh shit I found a cave system time to get fucked up by a bear!

 

[trab pu kcip]

Oh shit I found a cave system time to get fucked up by a bear!

that Tinder match escalated quickly!

 

[Jobbs]

Well that is pretty much the only reason sex is fun. Because childbirth sure as hell isn't.

ikr

 

[Vazra]

Mood dip. Gonna leave for a while. Have a good evening.

 

[liliththepale]

I want two girls and a boy, but I don't want to start for another four or five years at least. Everything in its time.

They'd probably get over it if I did it with some regularity but I dont really have reasons to go out often and it takes a lot out of me. I mean there aren't real consequences anyway its just annoying nosiness and complaining.

Are they the same way with your sisters?

Mood dip. Gonna leave for a while. Have a good evening.

That's the plan. Couple of friends coming over for a barbecue later this evening. I hope you feel better soon!

 

[Misha]

It up in the air but id probably adopt

Are they the same way with your sisters?

For the most part yeah. They dont always live at home though so that helps

 

[Timu]

See ya for now.

Ah, adoption, that's interesting actually. I wouldn't even mind doing that.

 

[Jobbs]

Emma Roberts is so great.

 

[Pau]

I'd be such a fuck up of a mum. Although I do think Kark would make a good dad.

I know fuck up moms. I don't believe for a minute that you would be one.

 

[Pau]

I know fuck up moms. I don't believe for a minute that you would be one.

Nah, I know would low-key resent my kid for many reasons and I know where that leads.

I'd make a good aunt though. Kark has a niece and nephew and I can't wait to introduce them to superheroes and Avatar. >

 

[SolVanderlyn]

I love kids

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

I WANT TWO KIDS. THEY WILL BE NAMED SAM AND HUDSON.

 

[SolVanderlyn]

I got Ys VI and Ys Felghana with my Steam wallet money

 

[marrec]

I love my kid

Spoiler

jks I kids are great

 

[liliththepale]

Emma Roberts is so great.

She and Dave Franco are in a movie next month. I'm definitely going to go see that.

 

[Professor Beef]

Ugh, talk of children and babies?

 

[Jobbs]

I think some of these feelings are probably more common than you might think. Most people just wouldn't admit to it.

speaking of babies again....GoT question...

Spoiler

is it just me or was Gilly's kid still a babby last episode? it looked so huge all of the sudden

Spoiler

I think it was still a babby, just a bit of a bigger babby.

A babbo if you will.

 

[zeemumu]

If anything I'd only want a max of 2 kids so they'd have each other to play with. If I had a daughter we could do a Lee and Clementine cosplay and it'd be awesome.

 

[marrec]

The baby talk brings up another Tinder conundrum.

Do I put that I have a son? He doesn't live with me but I see him every weekend and his mother and I have a good parenting relationship.

It's like, lying if I don't put that down right?

but how did it grow up so fast
fun fact: babo is a common term in German gangster rap

 

[FloatOn]

Is there a psychological classification for someone who belongs to a certain demographic, sees certain people of that same demographic behave badly and then establish a disproportionate disdain or go in the opposite extreme of that same demographic?

Ex - a Christian sees other Christians being horrible and decides to become atheist

 

[Pau]

I think some of these feelings are probably more common than you might think. Most people just wouldn't admit to it.

I think I just am too selfish to be completely okay with my kid having a better or easier life as absolutely terrible as that sounds. I am the opposite of Bruce in that way. (And probably why I consider him such a good dad despite writers' attempts.)

But I also wouldn't want them to not have a better and easier life so I think it's just easier to not have them at all.

no but I actually see a lot of profiles that make no secret of the fact that they have children. I don't thing it's uncommon or anything like that. like they put it right among the things they love/care about. some even upload pics with their kids.

 

[liliththepale]

Lea, (toddler+babby)/2 = tabby. Am I doing that right?

It's definitely something I'd want to know, but I don't use Tinder so I don't know what the customs are. At the least, it's first date information.

Over-correcting?

 

[Jobbs]

I'm trying to imagine if someone having a kid would be a dealbreaker or not. I'm honestly having trouble coming up with an answer and I'm going back and forth.

 

[FloatOn]

Over-correcting?

Or reactionary?

idk... I see this kind of thing every now and again and I can't put my finger on what is happening within that persons psyche but it's clear there is sone kind of trauma

 

[marrec]

I'm trying to imagine if someone having a kid would be a dealbreaker or not. I'm honestly having trouble coming up with an answer and I'm going back and forth.

It's weird, I already have a kid and I'm going back and forth as well.

But then I land on, if someone is genuinely great and I really click with them, of course not.

 

[trab pu kcip]

Lea, (toddler+babby)/2 = tabby. Am I doing that right?

there's also a test so you can check if you did it right: trab+babby <333

 

[Jobbs]

I think I'm basically here on the question of "can I deal with someone having a kid?"

 

[trab pu kcip]

someone remind me in about 10-12 hours that I need to call my grandma and finally send out this stupid insurance letter

 

[FloatOn]

In my younger days someone with a kid would be a total deal breaker but I think now that I'm more established it would be fine.

I'm still not particularly fond of babies. I feel like kids don't become cool until they hit 5 or so. Reason being (and I feel bad for this but) all of the gross stuff and annoying things babies do... I just can't hang rn

 

[Jobbs]

Okay.

Also is there some tiny claw reaching out from the shadows in that gif?

holy shit. probably the kitty that sold its soul to satan in order to become a GIF-star

 

[Ceallach]

Someone come get drunk and watch Bad Moms with me

Totally would

things just took a dark turn.. quick delete that jiffff

hope she isn't reborn as kitty satan or w/e

How about you come get drunk with me and watch It Follows?

So I'm doing GISHWHES again this year, which is a charity event in which teams around the world compete in a giant crazy scavenger hunt that mostly ends up with the team members making fools of themselves, and I can't wait.

Feeling a tad tipsy. NO REGRETS.

 

[Pau]

bruce? do you mean batman? I didn't even know he had kids

It's my favorite part about Batman. The Robins are (almost) all his kids. They are, in order of age:

Dick
Jason
Cassandra
Tim
Damian
(Helena but it's complicated. In the main canon I have her as younger than Damian.)
(Terry in Batman Begins.)

Can be hard to word right, I'd have one of your pics with him.

What kinds of stuff did you scavenge last year?

As a non batman comic reader I never knew this (I don't often read superhero/western style comics, I grew up with like battle angel alita and stuff).

Everything is different now.

Worth mentioning that Damian and Helena are his biological kids

Terry's technically a clone though, right? I feel like Dick and Tim got out of the Bat household more intact than the others.

Well they don't really go into it in the movies and there's the whole Batman and Robin are gay for each other narrative which is gross.

(I don't consider Bruce and Dick straight but the implication that a guy can't be a single dad without wanting to fuck his kids is ugh.)

Most of the kids besides Damian also only refer to him as dad on certain occasions or when talking to each other.
