Before, I Guess, Mum And Dad Were

I wanted to be on my own. i couldn't wait to be on my own. it did not scare me. i was dependent my parents. i wasn't dependent government, but i was dependent on my parents. i started working essentially when i was 16, but i was still dependent on my parents. i couldn't wait to be on my own.

I'm not offended. lenny bruce taught me that everything's funny. you can make everything funny. i don't think that assassinations are funny, i don't think you can make fun of isis, but almost everything is funny. and if we can't laugh at ourselves, who can we laugh at? so i don't mind ethnic humor. i like ethnic humor. i like dialect jokes. laughter is a very subjective thing. if it's funny to you it's funny. and a lot of things are funny to me.

Today's children are living a childhood of firsts. they are the first daycare generation; the first truly multicultural generation; the first generation to grow up in the electronic bubble, the environment defined by computers and new forms of television; the first post-sexual revolution generation; the first generation for which nature is more abstraction than reality; the first generation to grow up in new kinds of dispersed, deconcentrated cities, not quite urban, rural, or suburban.

If a bunch of activists want to create the concept of "gay infertility" and then tax all the rest of us to compensate them for the fact that they can't have babies, then that's gonna happen. you haven't missed anything yet. i'm just teasing you as to what's coming. gays now think it's not fair they can't have babies, so they're calling that "infertility," and it will require mandatory health insurance because of it. yeah, i know they're not infertile but that doesn't matter; they can't have babies.

The problem is that we live in an uptight country. why don't we just laugh at ourselves? we are funny. gays are funny. straights are funny. women are funny. men are funny. we are all funny, and we all do funny things. let's laugh about it.

You see how hillary clinton tried to jump on jeb bush for talking about "anchor babies"? hillary tweeted, "they aren't called 'anchor babies.' they're called 'babies,'" which is a bit ironic given that hillary's a big supporter of planned parenthood where "babies" are called "tissue mass" and, what, "unviable cells"? whatever it is.

There's a big difference, as i'm sure you know, it's a slightly manneristic one, between people of the '60s and people of '68. being a soixante-huitard - it's so nice to have a french word for it - is very different from just having happened to been a baby boomer in the '60s.

But truly, women are amazing. think about it this way: a woman can grow a baby inside her body. then a woman can deliver the baby through her body. then, by some miracle, a woman can feed a baby with her body. when you compare that to the male’s contribution to life, it’s kind of embarrassing, really.

I have a '68 mustang, which is my baby. i've had her for about six years, which is kind of a miracle, considering how many times she's been stolen.

Baby, when you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say live and let live. you know you did, you know you did, you know you did.
