    Being a dick is also a choice. Choose not to be a dick. It makes everyone's life easier.

    Dicks have nothing to do with this thread!!

    Today I'm getting the "oh I might go today, will you be ready to drive me, oh the cramps..."

    OBVIOUSLY it's uncomfortable, and will hit levels of pain that I possibly only reached when I had kidney stones. And as she's a friend obviously it's great and I'm delighted for her and her husband. But just the constant drone about it. The others in the office (and I'm the only man) just never did the whole...routine.

    Some just love to milk it.
    (I'm allowed say thus , as a woman who's gave birth 😉)

    I do realise that this is within the realm of "stuff that is infinitely more entertaining to discuss after smoking several joints" but wouldn't it really be so much more convenient if humans reproduces like plants?

    Seriously, imagine if instead of getting pregnant, the fertilised egg popped out within say a day or two of sex, and then all you had to do as a woman was find a decent patch of earth in your garden (or even a big flowerpot if you live in a flat / concreted gaff), train the dog not to pee there or dig random holes in the general vicinity, and then just go about your life for the next nine months?

    It could even blossom or something to let you know it was time to dig up your new baby. Or better yet, the baby is born with both the strength and the instinct to dig itself up when ready.

    I'm just saying, like... Maybe in another few million years of evolution we might get there somehow?

    Something like vegetive propagation
    This is where part of a plant breaks off and forms a new plant. Important in killing certain types of weeds that reproduce through vegetive propagation that you get the whole bqstard.

    Working with them is a doddle compared to living with one!

    Living with one is your own fault.
    Well... most of the time i guess.

    I had nothing to do with the pregnancy of the women i work(ed) with.
