My Goat

Might I take this moment to have a moan about children. I'll do my best to summarise.


It is my belief that if you have a child, internally or externally, by choice or "accident", you should not be entitled to any degree of privileges. A child does not count as a disability.

Today my colegue Mrs Trenchard, who is "with child" is to collect a sum of money from social security. I would be more than happy to collect an equal sum, but strangely enough I am never going to be pregnant, and where is my maternity leave?

Also on the subject, I would like to say that I firmly believe that it should be an offence to make your daughter look like a pineapple, by tying her hair in a bunch on top of her head. This is neither "cute" or right. I witnessed such a thing only the other day, it threw me into a fit of rage. Say "No" to pineapple kids!

Off the subject...

"You wouldn't steal a handbag! You wouldn't steal a car!"

I would steal a car, if I could do it from the comfort of my own bedroom in a way that was completely untraceable.

Get off my goat!

I would suggest it would perhaps be more inappropriate to actually believe that a pineapple was your child and dress it up in little cardigans and such and the like.

Crag

ps. Heh heh, I have just had possibly my favourite 'word verification' for entering this comment... "quapzoosh". I'm going to make it my mission to use that word today, perhaps in excited exclamation!!

Your maternity leave would perhaps come in the form of paternity leave....?

My god, I say that to whomever is in my company everytime I see that damn advert "You wouldn't steal a handbag, you wouldn't steal a car", as I think most people watching it bloody would! Maybe they should say: You SHouldn't steal a hand bag, you SHouldn't steal a car, or actually say something that people in this world really wouldnt do- "You wouldn't like your mum's arsehole.... you wouldn't smash your eye in with a paperweight..."
