Maybe all new usernames should be verified before allowed to post, most of the time it's the same 2-3 people coming back under new usernames who were banned before.

The Jerky Boys are infinitely more amusing than that stuff.
For one thing, some jokes only work best in 2-4 minute doses, not stretched out into 90-120 minutes. Kinda like how Adam Sandler's CDs were always pretty damn funny, but his movies are agonizing and soul-crushing. Same thing. And on that note... "'Eeeeeey GOAT!"

I'm not a parent nor do I ever plan on being one, but I'll answer your question, anyway.
I'm not gonna be all PC and say I'd just react to the news of my kid coming out as gay to me as if he/she had just told me something un-noteworthy "I'm going to the supermarket, dad". I'd of course accept my kid being gay, but I'd go through the 5 stages of grief for a few minutes beforehand. No parent expects their kid to turn out to be gay. Most parents expect grandkids someday. And yes, I know adoption exists, but it's not the same thing to me. I perak ally would never adopt a kid. So a kid of mine adopting would also feel a bit odd. And a sex change would be quite hard for me to process. Imagine your kid being a boy for 20 years and the suddenly being a girl or vice-versa. That's not an insignificant thing like them wearing a different sweater. That being said, I approve of same-sex marriage and believe in LGBT rights. But since there's no people like that in my family and none of the people I'm closest to in real life(not like I have a very large social circle anyway) fall into that category, it would be rather awkward for me at first. |
