So who's in favor of putting up a giant suppression field so no one can have babies? That way, the population crisis is solved and no retarded babies (i.e., anyone who disagrees with this) are born, and there's less money to spend on denim jumpsuits for everybody to wear and fewer Civil Protection officers required to police the population.

So who's in favor of my idea?

*laughs*

Jokes aside, I'd like to have a child of my own one day since my brother and sister don't seem interested. Someone's gotta carry on the family legacy (or lack thereof).

Then again, we do have an evident population crisis on our hands. I've always been a lone wolf anyway, so I could live without getting married/having children/yadayadayada.

Actually I've always thought for years that sterilizing the human population for a decade would work wonders for everyone. Famine and starvation would go down, overcrowding would stop temporarily, people could all have all the sex they want without having kids thus neutralizing the abortion debate for the time it takes place, etc...

Not the moral debate...

Well duh, but it would be arbitrary at that point.

Morality can't be arbitrary by definition (but let's not get into this debate again; it'll just end in hard feelings on both sides, and it's off-topic).

Also, if the government ever thinks they can just sterilize me with no fuss, they've got another think coming.

Only sterilizing the useless, do-nothing welfare cases would help. Preventing the human race from procreating en mass would probably cause a tremendous problem in the work and consumer sector after a few decades. Lots of factories, skyscrapers and shopping malls, but not enough people to operate them or consume the products and/or services they provide.

The saying is "If they think (x), they've got another think coming". Accursed Judas Priest. And yeah, that long of a procreational gap would cause mega havoc with civilization.
That was a joke.

OK, so I was just about to post this;
"
Also, if the government ever thinks they can just sterilize me with no fuss, they've got another thing coming.
No, they've got another think coming. Don't be ignorant. Don't use the wrong versions of phrases like the one above."

But my brother beat me to the correction.
What's your problem, Cambodian?

I was referring to the debate of legality, not the debate or morality.

This parody is becoming popular fast. We have to hunt down Glorb before that happens.

Okay, okay, edited.  Jeez.

Although I think my mistake is a more accurate portrayal of the situation; the government wouldn't have another think coming, because there would be no logical thought involved in the decision.
