why do most women/girls get all emotional when a baby/kid is around?
Happens a lot at work. Someone brings in their kid and they (90% women) gather around the poor thing for half an hour. You hear oooooohs and ahhhhhs.
Guys for the most part either just walk by and say hi or just continue what their doing.
Anybody have any theories?
Say No To Pistons 09-11-2006, 08:22 PM Its a trap.
wonner 09-11-2006, 08:22 PM Its in their genes....motherly instinct.
I could care less if there's a kid around....do guys feel the same way or am I just cold?
wonner 09-11-2006, 08:28 PM I'm wit cha, brother.

X2
I however, could care less.
Animal 09-11-2006, 08:35 PM I personally don't tolerate children very well. Needy, noisy, naggy, expensive, smelly children.
And that is probably one of the many reasons i'm still single.
cool. I've been around too much estrogen lately and it's making me feel like an a-hole when I don't care about certain things.
You guys don't care about birthdays either right?
Garoad 09-11-2006, 08:43 PM They say awww and ooo but bitch when they have one. Hypocrites.

If its a guy's b-day he'll be lucky if he gets a 6 pack if I see him that day. But dont be forgetting the womens b-day or bad things are in your future....
They made a huge as deal when I first got there.
Chick co-worker- "Do you want to participate in our birthday fund? For only 5 dollars a month, you'll get a cake, balloons and a gift. Your money will also pay for gifts for everyone else in our branch."---smiling the whole time
Me-no thanks.
Chick-you wont get anything for your birthday.
Me-that's fine
Chick-when's your birthday?
Me-next year
She tried to find out when my birthday was for the next 15 minutes. I just blocked her out and continued with my work.
Hades12 09-11-2006, 09:10 PM I like to see the kids, I keep a candy jar on my desk for them (no peppers Jokes) But it may be cause we had our first lately. One year old last month.
congrats hades! we had our first and last three years ago.
Hades12 09-11-2006, 09:18 PM Almost time to start on the next one, got to get her down 15 more pounds. Will be nice to hit it bare again.

Us guys are just looking for the next war.
Tessai 09-11-2006, 09:57 PM Heh, we have a birthday thing at work too. Sucks for me, I have the same birthday as the lady that does them, so she won't forget.
I think estrogen leads to a bigger asshole than testosterone. At least with testosterone, we can maintain a mood for 5min.
Hades12 09-11-2006, 10:15 PM Company buys a big cake once a month for us.
I don't get it. My old branch (same company) gave us free birthday parties and free breakfast on Fridays. I was never asked for one cent.
Supper 09-12-2006, 08:18 AM As far as kids go, they seem to just become attached to me for some reason. I try to stay far away but I usually wind up with one hugging my leg for some strange reason.
Birthdays... heh... I rarely remember the birthdays of my parents and siblings let alone friends. Usually I will buy someone a drink once a year (whenever I see them at the bar or remember to give them liquor) and tell them its their birthday present. And I could give two shits about when my birthday is, w000 another year older, its not like thats the only day of the year you get older.
mazdaspeedrex 09-12-2006, 09:36 AM As the parent of a 5 year old, I can tolerate most kids, but I still don't go apeshit over a new baby. And no one can truthfully say all babies are cute. I've seen some down right ugly ones. As for birthdays, +111. My wife has to do all of the birthdays for my side of the family because I never pay attention. She treats her birthday like a national fucking holiday. I keep "forgetting" to get her some thing to break her down, but it doesn't seem to work. I tell her to ignore mine because it's just another day but she still gets me shit.
mazdaspeedrex 09-12-2006, 10:29 AM Don't kick the baby. (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1268478661401675885&q=south+park&hl=en)

I think it's because of stuff like this lol
ratincat 09-13-2006, 11:21 AM i think that children shouldn’t be allowed at work if they ever came to my old job at the machine shot they would get killed with out a dought i can just imagine it a kid crawling in the cnc lath or the 5axis mill and getting clamped down in the holder while the mill slowly draws across there skull milling it half way down but that’s just my thoughts lol
women and kids idk there almost the same they both spend your money that you work for they both are a pain in the ass and always have to wine about some problem they have and are both high maintenance and both never shut up the only good thing about women is they can get you off but since you have to be very polite and kiss ass basically to even get some its almost not worth it
birthdays were cool when you were allowed in to Chuckey cheese other than that its only another reason to buy a bottle and get drunk but that’s just about the same as every Friday
Supper 09-13-2006, 11:28 AM man... go download a spellchecker or something.
