Dad as a Motherfucker:
June 13, 2008
Having children is fucking hardcore. I used to think it was just that parents were melodramatic pussies, but rearing some child is the most extreme thing I have ever done. It's like the heroin of being a human or something.
My son laughed really hard for the first time today, and we almost cried it was so awesome. He pukes on me. Also, it is possible for an acceptable amount of shit to be on something.
I was going to make a point about being a parent, but fuck it. Being a parent has no real point. It's great. Seeing another human grow makes you less scared about death and more empathetic to the human condition, but searching for real "meaning" in parenting is like looking for a douchebag at GNC.
I'd rather try to find meaning in Metal Gear Solid 4, which is the best game ever. I'm going to get drunk, dad-style, and read computer forums now.

Thank you, Craig. I need to post things like this more often.
Brandon-- I feel better about killing people in video games than I do watching or reading about real emotion. I wish I liked books better.
In Metal Gear Solid, you can listen to music on your iPod, and distract enemies with Playboy magazine.

You can make like $250 a pop off of power-leveling a World of Warcraft character.
It's like eighty hours of your life, but you don't have to leave home.

raising children IS hardcore. it gets even more awesome when your kids can actually have conversations with you.

A blazing post. It's downright transformational what a little puke and poop on your shirt can do. It works really well for skewing the scale of your own pain back down.
