Walking I get. But power walking? Why not just run for a shorter time?

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Of course my argument was that it didn't make a whole lot of evolutionary sense to only let the dumb reproduce.

Have you seen Idiocracy? Not a very good movie, but the first 15 minutes are absolutely brilliant (and depressing).

I know the world is a better place with her children in it.

Yes. That.

My immediate takeaway from the movie (other than "Plants crave it," which has become an oft-repeated phrase in our house) was that it was dumb as hell.

But it stuck with me, and in my more pessimistic moments, I'm convinced, totally convinced, that it's wildly accurate about human development.

Yeah, the movie overall was no good. But that opener is totally worth watching! You'll laugh, you'll cry...

He argued with me that I surely had more important things to accomplish with my life, etc, etc. He was dead serious. He had been married forever, but they didn't have children because his contributions to the world were much more important

...was his wife also making these vitally important contributions?? I suddenly feel kind of bad for her. Eesh.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Welcome to the world, Nilly-daughter!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So I had a mammogram this morning with a tech who had the worst bedside manner I have ever experienced. I felt like a piece of meat. I know the have to adjust you here and there but she barely was interested in speaking to me. If I could have removed my breasts and handed them to her to look at she probably would have preferred it.

Our wings are not tired.

I'm sorry, le nubian. It is uncomfortable enough without having a bad tech.

Have you seen Idiocracy?

Nope. But now I don't know if I want to!

It is such a personal decision to make, and I find it just as wrongheaded to judge a person for choosing to have children as it is to judge for the decision to remain childless. Now if you let me decide who would be good parental material and who wouldn't the world would surely be a better place. But not my job apparently.
