I dunno. "You" can be used pretty generally so maybe he was referring to the 'hypothetical individual' which can be applied to everyone. As for what's really going on I have no idea, at least what he means by it.

Nobody cares.

Holy hell man. I thought the mods were supposed to deescalate this ****.

He hit he nail on the head. At least you slipped in a 'usually'.

Sorry, but I just can't respect these pompous declarations.

If anything I think it's people don't commonly resolve their issues prior to having kids so it gets unintentionally projected on to them.

I'm not denying that there's a certain moth-to-the-flame thing going on with the drama that happens here with regular intervals.

What's sad is that this was some of the most obvious baiting I've ever seen and they still got em.

I know that bringing his son into everything is despicable and low, but it's hard to feel bad when he acts like such an 'alpha' douche and they're funny.

I'm gonna miss his weird inability to argue with people without trying to e x p o s e them as being "gay LOL".

^ But [MERIT] isn't leaving us, is he?

I for one have no reason to doubt that he's anything but a good father. That stuff about tucking them into bed each night is obviously the best case scenario, but it's also a scene out of Hollywood that doesn't always happen irl. Something else about being a good father is hanging in there when things don't go to plan; showing support and continuity in difficult circumstances. If you're doing it right, which I assume [MERIT] is, kids can actually learn something about life - that it can be rocky, but some ties/relationships are strong enough to survive under pressure.

^ :clap: + :laughing: Very insightful,MicShazam!

I don't think the ultimate difference in money between what he's talking about and how marginal tax rates actually work means much in the end. It's still too much.

I can’t help it. I love her. She’ll turn to **** but right now when I see her I’m like please save us. It’s going to suck when she sells out and I’ll have to hate her, too. Pelosi putting oil industry sellouts on that alternative energy committee that I think OC has agreed to be on is probably the first of many ****ty compromises until she’s just another Hillary. Maybe she’ll stand her ground but I doubt it.
