I can barely afford rent at 40; how the fuck am I going to afford to raise a kid?
"There's never going to be a good time for it. We didn't have a lot of money when I had mine. You just learn to sacrifice for them."
Motherfucker, I just ate ramen for dinner.
And the rich are even buying up trailer parks to squeeze money out of the people there, so even becoming trailer park trash with kids is unaffordable.
I support the death penalty for private equity executives.
puts hand on shoulder son, we've got to talk about your avocado toast
Don't forget all the Starbucks coffee!
Instead of buying that latte, why don't you instead buy some bootstraps and pull on them
For those who don't know, this phrase has come full circle.
It started as something literally impossible. Then people started using it to say they did it anyway. Expecting what is supposed to be impossible out of people is insane.
in a way we can view it as a term to mean "LYING" about how you succeeded. How did you get so in shape for your role? Clean diet and exercise. How did you make your first million? Pulling myself into the air by my bootstraps.
Yeah, it's like when people say they just gave 110%. Cool, very quippy, but really, what did you do?
Performance enhancing drugs? 🤷♂️
Sadist laguage.
I'm sure it was only a few bad apples that started that.
Disregardless, I could care less.
It's literally a joke rich people use to show how stupid poor people are.
Horse and sparrow theory?
That phrase is just something the rich tell the poor to get them to bend over.
They could've just bought me dinner and then asked nicely
Chivalry is dead
Everything is about power to them...
Then just walk in, demand to see the Big Boss, say Good Morning Sir, and ask for the job!
And the rotisserie chickens!
The media really gave me unrealistic expectations about how much money my dislike of avocado was going to save me.
Who said anything about raising it? You just need to have the kid, and then the orphan crushing machine will take over from there
