Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.
The following things are not grounds for murder:
- Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
- Posts with little-to-no context
- Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
- Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
- "Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")
Rules:
- Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
- Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
- No bigotry of any kind.
- Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
- If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
- Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

Some people just aren't interested in having kids. I've had countless great moments in my life I will always remember fondly. There isn't a single one of those moments I think would've been better if I had a kid lol. I don't think my life would be worse, just different.
There's been tons of moments I've shared with friends who have kids who I've seen and experienced with and literally thought "that must feel amazing".
Then I go home to a quiet house, feed my farm animals, and just... Quit life for a few hours. Nothing else to worry about. I'm sure there is a ton of emotional and rewarding moments having children, but I appreciate the rest of the time where I just don't ever have to worry about them.
Kids are a blessing you don't miss if you don't have them, and can't imagine living without when you do
Incorrect. My mother never let me forget that she regretted not following through with aborting me. She always imagined how much better life would have been without me.
you're not alone with that :)
