My dad is a living trash human.

I hope I can be remembered fondly, like this dad, by my kids.

I specifically didn't have kids because of my own father.

Turned out later in life I regretted it and wished I had made more of an effort to have a child, I think I would have been an okay father. I learned from the worst how to not be the worst, I just had way too many demons to battle through adulthood before I felt remotely capable of raising another human and not breaking them also, so it's probably good that I didn't, but having nieces and nephews made me really wish I could have experienced that kind of love.

It's too late now, but I think about what alternate lives would have been like. I wonder if we get to experience every possible instance of our own lives.

I will only remember that your dad was a living trash human. Sorry

My dad is a dead trash human. I was kinda sad when he died, but life has been so much easier since.

I'm still waiting for mine to. Wife bought some champagne and I've got some Wagyu in the freezer.

Sounds like you are expecting it any day.

[–] Rancor_Tangerine@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Not expecting it, just hopeful. 500lbs monsters don't live very long.

Does that count as human wagyu?

This is why I chose not to procreate, I wouldn't be a good mom and so there wouldn't be any grown kids using me as an example of what not to do
