    To be clear, my "weirdo" comment was specifically about the Duggers, not anyone with an Aunt younger than them.

    But have you seen the show? Seriously. Those people are weird. Not just because they have a bunch of kids either.

    My grandma had my oldest aunt at 17. She had my youngest aunt at 42 or something. She was pregnant with my youngest aunt at the same time my oldest aunt was pregnant with her first. So my eldest cousin is older than my youngest aunt.
    It happens.

    That is correct. You and I know better, Señor Pun, but I notice many of these people incorrectly think that the vagina is the reproductive organ that can hold many children. :rolleyes:

    No, sir. Maybe the birth canal might be able to accommodate the largest child or a couple, but the "demotivotional" picture is talking about a "clown" car. I could see that if she had quintuplets or even nonutoplets, but she had twins once or twice only, I believe. Bad analogy is my point.

    I'm at the end of a twin pregnancy and it is my experience that two children is the max that a person can carry to term. I am certainly quite maxed out!

    Triplets almost never make it past 33 weeks, quadruplets are generally delivered at 28 weeks. In case you were wondering, 40 weeks is term for a single baby, 37 weeks for twins because for some reason they develope a little bit faster (stressful conditions?) But 33 weeks is not exactly term for triplets, just that's all you can generally handle. And if it weren't for modern medicine triplets wouldn't survive.

    Thanks for taking a stance, Swoly. Not sure what we'd do without you. :rolleyes:

    For someone that uses emoticons as much as you do, you really have very little in the way of a sense of humor.

    There is a guy that works in the other building whose wife was born when her dad was 18. He (her husband) is 6 years older than her, so his father-in-law is only 12 years older than him which is weird in itself. But they have kids and then the FIL got remarried and he has kids with his 2nd wife. So, you have a situation where his kids are younger than his grandkids! :eek: :eek:

    But yea, the Duggars are some strange birds to say the least.

    To clarify, in case you were curious, even with twins only one baby comes out at a time. Even if it is a C-section.

    I bet if you blew into her mouth, it would sound like a conch shell. Hell, after 18 kids, I bet it looks like a conch shell.

    There are plenty of people starving and dying and these clowns plop out babies like its nothing.

    Use a birth pill or condoms.

    Clown cars can't even have children! This joke failed on so many levels. :mad:

    They used to, but they said in one of their shows that they lost a baby due to her birth control (I make no judgment of the accuracy or validity of their statements). They haven't used any since - they said the pain of losing that baby was too great for them to ever put another baby at such a risk.

    Well, in his defense, he's been owning that 'random picture' thread.

    If by "owning" you mean posting version after version of the same tired "that's what she said"...then, yes, he owns that thread. Then again, that makes up about 95% of his posts lately.

    I know, I know. Perhaps I was just subconsciously playing devil’s advocate.

    But I did think the teacher’s note was kind of funny.
