Oh, go fuck yourself. You just want some excuse to justify taking advantage of your co-workers and making them pay the price for your decision to have kids.
It's funny because properly raising a child is one of the least selfish things you can do
Bullshit. You want some cute kid to play with and love and to carry on your name. Fine. But stop acting like it makes you Jesus, you self-centered fuckhead.
I don't owe you jack-fucking-shit. And neither do any of your co-workers.
When you adopted a dog, did you run to your co-workers and ask them to pay for your fucking Purina too, you arrogant douche?
I don't give a flying fuck if everyone stops having kids tomorrow. It's not my job to help other people have kids, and no it doesn't benefit me. If I get to the point where I can't take care of myself, I'll do the responsible thing and eat a bullet. I won't need any help from your snot-nosed shits. And so don't ask me to pick up your slack so you can go have even more snot-nosed shits, you selfish prick.
because if it were all male voices then the same fucking story would be posted but with a twist that women are stupid so you can't use the voice for an assistant.
When dealing with SJW's, the only winning move is not to play.
Is there a law of economics that says EVs will become cheaper than gas cars, but gas cars will just keep getting expensive?
I remember a few years ago listening to a lecturer who asserted that the world had hit "peak oil," and that gasoline would continue from that point forward to get more and more expensive--to the point where gas-powered cars would become increasingly expensive to operate and electric cars would become cheaper and cheaper to operate by comparison (and hence more and more in demand, obviously).
To say his prediction never happened would be an understatement.
Well, I live in the United States, where you can be prevented from suing a company for gross negligence of fraud simply by not opting out of some fake class action suit that you didn't even know about.
"Sorry, you can't sue us. You missed the window to opt-out of the class-action lawsuit that we secretly initiated ourselves. Here's your share of the judgement: a coupon for $5 off your next purchase from us."
If they could automate your job or send it overseas, they would do that no matter whether you raised the minimum wage or not. $7.25 or $15, the difference is trivial next to $1/hr for some third-world laborer or the free-minus-maintenance costs of automation. The jobs we're talking here are ones that can't be outsourced or automated practically. As long as you don't jack up the minimum wage to the point where no one could afford their product, then those jobs probably aren't going away any time soon.
Speaking for myself, I came to Netflix for the back-catalog movies and TV shows. Their original shows are just icing on the cake. But lately Netflix seems to think that they can be just another TV network like HBO, and have neglected what made most of their customers subscribe to their service in the first place.
As their back-catalog shrinks, so do the chances I'll renew my subscription each month. If I wanted to subscribe to HBO, I would just go subscribe to HBO.
Because owning as console means never having to figure out if your system has the right system specs to even play a game. I see that PS4 logo on the box, and I know I'm good to go.

It's not my job to help other assholes procreate.
You get a shitload of extra work to pick up the slack.
Guess who gets to pick up the slack of all the workers who managed to get knocked up or knock someone up?
If you guessed "All of you responsible employees who don't have kids" you win!
There is no amount of money I wouldn't pay for a Mr. T digital assistant.
"Time for your meeting, fool!"
No way am I buying an OS from them.

"Flying cars"
Nonsense! I've been waiting since the 1950's, but I'll never give up on the dream of the flying car! NEVER!

Bad news for the 10 people there with internet then, I guess.

His opposition to April Fool's Day is admirable. He has our gratitude.
Let's all give Dr. Klahn a big hand!
Ha, the joke's on everyone!
Yeah, now they just have to actually build the cars.
One more major electrical energy sink that will concentrate in a very small portion of the day.
And also concentrate in a very small portion of smug owners.

Now Nintendo on the other hand....
For a dying company, they sure sell a shit-ton of consoles and make a metric fuck-ton of money.
Sure, Sony is selling 2 shit-tons of consoles to their 1 shit-ton. But does that really matter when you're both sleeping on giant piles of gold?
