Well your generation made housing unobtainable.. Play a stupid game win a stupid prize

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 months ago (2 children)

And healthcare is exorbitantly expensive.

[–] _stranger_@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Even just childcare is super expensive and hard to come by.

You mean all this racist objection to common sense healthcare and using housing as an investment vehicle have consequences?

[–] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

That can't be it. It must be marginalized group's fault. That's the only explanation /s

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Y'all reacting to this with no context or anything.

I'm sure most of us know someone who would 100% give a sticker like this jokingly to their parent, and the parent thinking it'd be a laugh to slap on the car.

I sure as hell do.

So for all y'all know, this is a joke that you arent in on and getting pissed over.

Waiting for context? In MY internet?!

I hope he daughter has gone no contact. If you want kids this bad, adopt.

As a selfish daughter, I think this is hilarious tbh.

But I also have a mother who understands and fully supports my and my partner's reproductive choices and I probably would not feel that way if circumstances were different.

"Why can't you give up untold amounts of money, free time, peace/quiet, lack of stress, and freedom so I can have my grandkids around for a few hours a week? Stop being so selfish."

These are also the people who either disappear anytime their kids need help with the kids, or else were such terrible parents they're the last person on earth their kids would leave alone with their children.

[–] Im_old@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

Also, why don't you want to bring new human beings in a world that we have destroyed, that will struggle when I'll be gone and you'll be powerless to help? So selfish

[–] JPAKx4@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 7 months ago

Now I want a "my grandchildren are still in my selfish sons huge balls"

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 1 points 7 months ago

Then just make a new kid yourself, mister/missus, and show you daughter how it's done.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

Jesus, this is insane.

I don't know if I find it more abhorrent that someone would proudly display an opinion so needlessly angry, or that there exists a company that is profiting off these assholes by providing such a miserable sticker.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

It's a lot of words to say "I'm a selfish asshole."

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

I'm okay with the print company. It lets us see from a distance what kind of asshole we're dealing with.
