My childhood was ruined by God, like my parents intended.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

I feel you on that

[-] [email protected] 27 points 1 year ago

I thought God intended childhoods to be ruined by sadistic nuns and horny priests.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Maybe their parents were a sadistic nun and a horny priest ๐Ÿคท

How does that work with the whole celibacy thing?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

It doesn't, really, but hypocrisy is generally a feature of religion rather than a bug so ๐Ÿคท

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Eh, I think it's a more generalized statement on the human condition:

Rules for thee but not for me.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

That's just another way to say hypocrisy, though ๐Ÿ˜„

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yup, but religion doesn't get to monopolize hypocrisy.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

True. Just like people other than Michael Jordan and LeBron James are allowed to play basketball ๐Ÿ˜‰

Eastern rite Catholic priests can't get married, but they can be married....

There's always the option of bullies as well

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Jokes on you, my mom was the worst bully I had, and I had enough to fill two classrooms. Back when 20 kids per room was normal...

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Isn't 20 kids per classroom still pretty normal? My kids' school has 20-25 w/ two teachers per room.

You're rich or live in a rich area

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Idk, I think our area is pretty average. My kids go to a charter school 100% funded by taxes (enrollment by lottery), so I guess there's a little more money to go toward teachers instead of grounds and buses. But even the local public schools have ~25 students per class.

That said, I am in the US, which is a rich country, but we lag a lot of countries in education spending, and my state is on the lower end of the spectrum of spending per student. I think we just pay our teachers less than other areas.

Your first bullies are family members.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

My parents were amazing and very supportive.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

I am happy for you

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Congrats on your trauma I guess.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

My parents are okay, I posted it bc I found it funny and I can imagine what it must have been like for someone else who had that experience :)

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure why you're being down voted. I also congratulate OP! Getting through that shit and coming out better on the other side can be a real bitch.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

The reboots don't ruin anything about me, they barely even ruin their source material, they just usually end up being bad and not worth watching.

Look, if y'all can't come up with an original idea for your movie or series, just turn to creator owned comics for your source! 90% of it is laid out for you, just follow along and figure out some cool ways to depict the panels and the correct medium for your adaptation. See: Invincible.

This one made me laugh out loud

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Is this something people say?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Probably not. Kids don't hate reboots and remakes because they were probably too young to see the originals. Old people are the ones hating.

Kids don't actively hate shows, they just won't watch things they don't like. Adults will not watch a show, then summarize a 2 hour podcast explaining why no one else is supposed to like it.
