Children in bars

A little while back I was managing a group of teachers and they all were chatting about growing up reading Harry Potter, also this was three years ago, why must time inexorably progress, fucks sake.

I was recently laughing at what a drunken degenerate, flat trashing, vodka swilling, lefty posh-boy waster Polly Toynbee's fatha was in his young days. But wikipedia revealed as well as going into a right wing sulk in his dotage. He wrote some grumpy piece in the early 60's about how he's glad everyone has finally realised what a pile of steaming dogshit J R R Tolkien is and stopped buying his wretched books and condemning them to the obscurity the worthless pos deserve.

sorry slightly offtopic, but arrgh fuck ya anyways!

thinking of becoming a dad in order to bring kids to bars

so my place of residence at the moment is salt lake city. it's known for being the mormon capital, and mormons are known for having lots of children. the reputation is accurate. almost everywhere i go outside of my bedroom in this state i have to share public space with countless moms and dads and their broods of four or more children. now i'm not so curmudgeonly as to categorically hate children or people who decide to have one or two kids but i find it exasperating and pathetic when mom and dad have obviously made an effort to produce 3 or more of themselves, increasing the net stupidity of humanity and adding a significant amount of additional co2 to the atmosphere.

the gym i go to is a two-floor barbell gym, locally owned and run. i am serious about weightlifting and go almost every day. today i was using the cable station on the second floor of an almost-empty gym when a herd of 6 kids and mom appear at the top of the staircase behind me. two of them start playing hopscotch right at the edge of my gym personal space and the rest climb on to the exercise bikes nearby and dink around. mom is doing nothing, just standing there watching them. i get very irritated and lose it, growling "this isn't a playground" at the kids and mom. i don't regret it. to that mom: i don't need to deal with your six fucking kids at my gym and i hate you and this """"family friendly"""" garbage can of a state for making it ordinary and acceptable for you to bring them there.

this is the children in bars thread, brother

start your own children in gyms thread

i'd rather start a bars in gyms or gyms in bars thread tbh

gym bar would be a good concept. though you would need to have some sort of waiver signed by each customer/member

Disappointed mom face

these parents clearly didn’t see the NO KIDS 8 1/2 x 11 posted by the door. Now they managed to spill a book of matches on the floor

at 8 1/2 x 11 i'm surprised they fit in the door in the first place

One three year old bumps her nose and starts screaming bloody murder. Her sister runs to the front door and sprawls out completely on the floor, face first. The brother races his toy truck on the floor the entire length of the bar. Small place. The family finally makes a slight attempt to take control. The kids then start chanting “yes” in unison.

My godson and I lunched in the bar section of the restaurant; we nursed our chocolate milk and white wine like pros.

did you enjoy your chocolate milk

He thought the chardonnay too buttery.

There were kids in the bar today and it was totally chill

Dad is here with his 8 year old and what looks to be a date? He announces softly that he’s going to have a smoke, then breaks out some weed vapor and blows a plume high in the air. Kid plays with dog absentmindedly and asks his daddy to look.

I misread the title as Chicken in Bars and now I'm recalling all the chicken I've eaten in bars. Wings, tendies, sandwiches... I've decided my favorite is the fried chicken salad I'd get at Chesterfields, a spacious and somewhat bleak dive in a grimy part of town. Corona killed it.

(the salad was exactly the same as you'd get in 1985)

they never threw it out?

The first draft of Children of Men was somewhat less hard hitting.

Needs one or two tweaks to be a Morrissey lyric

spouse and i brought our firstborn to meet some friends at a hype williams video retrospect at some bar years back and that was the first and only time we ever did that.

did very briefly meet whiney and he complemented the name of our kid.
