I was reading some drivel on here over the weekend, I forget who wrote it, some sort of n00b no doubt, and he was drooling on about some childhood fantasy of flying as a lame, shoe horned in metaphor to do with the carefree development of something or other.
There is an all pervading mystique about childhood being the golden time of ones life, teachers and parents will tell you your school days are the best days of your life.
I'm sorry, but that used to terrify me.
School, which I hated, was as good as it fucking got? When I grow up, people are going to be even more mean to me?
Good job I wasn't of an emo bent as I'd have cut myself real nice like.
Everyone would feed me this bullshit constantly, I hear people saying it to children even now.
It's bollocks.
Childhood, unless you completely fuck up your adult life and end up in a maximum security prison, is a lot, lot worse than adulthood.
Let's just quickly compare:
Things I Could Do As A Child:
1) Everything I was fucking TOLD to do from awaking to resting my weary head at fucking 8pm.
Things I Can Do As An Adult:
1) Shag/Wank
2) Buy anything I want, whenever I want
3) Eat anything I want, whenever I want
4) Stay up all night, whenever I want
5) Go wherever I want, whenever I want
6) Watch TV, whenever I want
7) Play sports, whenever I want
8) Go on holiday, whenever I want
9) Drive, whenever I want
10) Have a dog
11) Drink
12) Drugs
Of course, my lifestyle is atypical. I have no children, earn well over $300k and I live like a King. I indulge my every whim, I really am a modern day Caligula (with slightly less child rape). I say this not to boast but to point out compared to being a kid my life is 100% awesome.
But it's that way, I'll argue, for most people.
Perhaps all this really is moot, perhaps my constant self indulgence is just a sign of immaturity, a man who never grew up, a child with a driving license, amex platinum and hairy balls. Perhaps real adults really do pine for their golden days of childhood.
Even if you earn $60k and have kids it must surely be better now than as a kid? You are after all, king of your own domain. Somewhere, in some small way, you're at the top of a small tree. As a kid, you're always at the bottom of that tree.
So to sum up, if the 'golden age' of your life was childhood, you really must have a shitty life.

good man.
support liverpool, usually entertaining, exciting players (gerrard, torres), loads of history.
Ask AJ he's 'merican.
If you like it i'll get you a shirt of your choice (as long as it's liverpool).
---
I'm not sure I'm willing to make that kind of a commitment.
I tend to root for the underdog, that way I look cool when they manage to win.
Does Liverpool possess a decent amount of talent, yet manage to disappoint on a regular basis?
If so, I might be able to get behind them.
I believe at this point I can only be bothered to tune in for major tournaments, that's probably all I'll get to see anyway. I watched the Euro championship; it kind of seemed like Germany decided not to compete, save for the homosexual blond fellow. I remembered that the sports I already enjoy have shit championships sometimes, and decide not to write off football as of yet.
I've seen two entertaining games in the last three months, they'll have to pick it up.

Support Newcastle. Liverpool have won in Europe and get far more TV coverage than they deserve. Newcastle, full of promising players, always sacking their managers, always a scandal and most of all, always fucking it up.

I like how every person on this website says they make 6 figures. Like if I made 6 figures I'd still spend any down time on a website at all. I'd be too busy driving Italian sports cars and banging models to ever drop in here to say hi to any of you shit bags even once let alone the countless hours most of these "rich, successful" liars are populating this stink hole. I'm sure you do this while you're bored at work but, and correct me if I'm wrong (I'm sure you will) I don't think there's many jobs out there that pay that well and force you to sit at a computer all day. Unless you're all video game designers, in which case let me be the first to say "Halo 3 sucked penis."
good post, though.

yes, i can. but it depends where it is. i'm no millionaire. how about it stays in my name but you get to live there? i'm sure we could work out a deal so that you don't have to pay rent if you know what i mean... *wink*
i was just talking about buying one with my dad this weekend. he was looking at one down in Florida and he's trying to convince me to buy one too. who knows, i may do it so i can have a vacation house and then move into it after i retire. it would be nice if my backyard was the beach.

house or condo? florida is very humid and has a lot of bugs. i prefer california...malibu's nice but you have to get a place away from trees or they will immediately burst into flames.
==========================================================================
well you won't have to worry about wildfires, because i can't afford Malibu. =(

My childhood was fucking awesome, except between the ages of 13 and 16 when i got fat and stopped being good at sports. Then I lost all that weight and everybody decided to be my friend again, and I accepted all of them with open arms and have since harbored a disdain for my fat assed former brethren.
Overall, my life is and has been awesome. Most people would kill to be me.

Right now truly is the best time of my life... but by no means was my childhood crap, in fact it pretty much rocked.
I blink my eyes and weeks pass anymore these days. Summers that lasted forever and being able to play from sun-up until bedtime was pretty awesome.
Being grown up certainly has its perks, though.

The assumption is you will be earning money... even sixty grand with kids.
What if you don't want to work? Your folks pay for everything. If you have the patience they will finally stop bothering you and let you eat and sleep however you want. Heck, if you get an allowance you can even buy drugs.
Being a kid is sort of like being a pet. Free food and shelter without having to use the "I will work for food" sign.

A few weeks ago I realised that I will never be picked up again. I am a smidge over 6 foot and there will never be a man or woman big enough to pick me up for an all-encompassing cuddle, like one could do with a baby.

The super Nintendo was the best thing about my childhood.
All of my friends were either retarded assholes or home schooled social out casts.
There was one family of home schooled kids that ad six children, I loathed them but still went over to play Guess Who during summer.
Plus I was slow and failed at the midnight games of capture the flag.

the classic steak sambo consists of:
rib eye
raw onion
cheese
mayo
some upside down heathens add BEETROOT.
how disgusting is that?
ruins it.
---
philistine
beetroot is ESSENTIAL.
as is lettuce and sliced raw tomato.
and as for MAYO??? i suppose i shouldn't be surprised that you would use mayo, for the obvious reason and also because you are now a seppo. the correct condiment is tomato sauce, applied to the underside of the upper slice of toast, then sprinkled very liberaly with black pepper.

the classic steak sambo consists of:
rib eye
raw onion
cheese
mayo
some upside down heathens add BEETROOT.
how disgusting is that?
ruins it.

After the age of 11, childhood SUCKED. Before 11, it was great- next to no adult supervision, campfires in the woods, sneaking into construction sites. Then my mom decided she wanted to be a parent, and life went straight to shit.
Even at age 22, it's much better. I can just imagine it getting better as the Kid gets older and I can finally hire a babysitter every now and then.

yes, i can. but it depends where it is. i'm no millionaire. how about it stays in my name but you get to live there? i'm sure we could work out a deal so that you don't have to pay rent if you know what i mean... *wink*
i was just talking about buying one with my dad this weekend. he was looking at one down in Florida and he's trying to convince me to buy one too. who knows, i may do it so i can have a vacation house and then move into it after i retire. it would be nice if my backyard was the beach.

house or condo? florida is very humid and has a lot of bugs. i prefer california...malibu's nice but you have to get a place away from trees or they will immediately burst into flames.

it is nice to have your own money. except now you have to buy your own toys, and it's kinda nice when you're a kid to have someone else buy your toys.
although my parents would have never bought me elliptical trainers and vibrators when i was a kid.
=======================================================================
i will buy you those things in exchange for fake love. i bought myself a really nice elliptical about a year ago and i used it for a good week and now it just sits. i fell in love with those things in Afghanistan when i didn't want to run around the airstrip and breathe in all that exhaust and dust in the air and figured out i could use one of them in the gym and get to watch that hot marine girl on the stair-stepper at the same time.
---------
what's fake love?
I don't need anyone to buy me these, since I already have them. I didn't get a super top of the line elliptical, since I don't want the guilt of expense if I don't use it every day.
I've fucked up my knee somehow, so I was looking for a way to exercise without putting a lot of pressure and stress on my knee. I also have a double ballet barre to do stretches on without putting pressure on it.
you'll have to buy me something I don't have. can you afford a beach house?

Save the fucking emoticons bubba, for someone who leaps on the slightest typo as a form of defense in reviews you sure rely on the crutch of grins and winkies.
Shouldn't someone with your discerning literary eye be able to convey the winkie or grinie nature of your reviews without the use of a semi graphical confirmation? I.e. by the content of said review.
Oh, and as to your 'point' - ALL CHILDREN ARE TOLD WHAT TO DO AT ALL TIMES EVEN 'PLAY TIME' IS REGULATED.
==============
Can I always depend on your superior intellect to glean the meaning of my words? Will you ever misread me again, as you have many times in the past? No. Therefore, I add the emoticons to ensure you will understand.
Regardless of how I rate you or what I have to say, you continue to respond in an assholish way. Why? Can you never be polite, as British men are famous for? Why must you be rude at every turn?
People tend to see you as you write here.

I dunno, I tend to disagree with you.
I remember as a child, one long hot school summer break, me and a friend sat on the kerb in our cul-de-sac and spat at each other in turns. Not to spit on each other, but to see how close you could get without hitting one another. Of course, the odd bit of spit hit each of us and we laughed it off (this was in the day before gays and AIDS and shit). It was fun, it was simple, it was BRILLIANT.
Can you spit at your friends and not have them stab you Apollo? I think not.

the fat, dirty, 16 year old, wigger boy on my block just started hurling profanities at me as i drove past him while he was walking down the middle of the street. i paused my vehicle to ask him to repeat his words and he told me he was going to 'beat my motherfucking ass up for driving all up on his shit'
i laughed and said, 'okay, white trash.'
this enraged the filthy little thing to the point where he spit on my truck and told me to get out and fight him. i told him that i wouldn't want to dirty my hands by touching him. he spat at my car again as he began bellowing profanities. i spit in his beet red face mid-scream. some of it went in his mouth. after that, i drove away laughing.
my tires will probably be slashed tonight.
that has nothing to do with this post, i just wanted to share.

If that doesn't indicate a level of unhappiness, I need to learn to read all over again.
It's great that you have a woman you love, but I think you are more obsessed with the size of your head. Dude, when men say they like head, they usually mean something else. . .

Childhood was indeed crap if you weren't treated properly. Some of us had beautiful childhoods and have beautiful memories to support that feeling. The amount of money one makes or doesn't make in adulthood should never be cause for comparison.
Even if I had no education and could only achieve minimum wage I would still look back fondly on my early years. I'm sorry you cannot do the same. You are, perhaps, wealthy in a material sense, but seriously lacking in what most consider to be important.
This +2 will only add to your current wealth. . .

One could, at a stretch, infer from this post that I had a largely unhappy childhood (that wouldn't be true by the way), but to come to the conclusion that my life lacks.....what? what exactly do you think it lacks?
I've a woman I adore, a job I enjoy, an enormous head, close family and lots of friends. I don't have children, but haven't ruled it out.
