- I was listening to Slipknot the other day, just because.
Nirvana is OK but I'm not overly fussed with them that much. There's a couple of songs I like but in general there's many other groups I'd rather listen to. I personally think Nirvana is overly hyped.
No Tool on the list yet...
For example, my favourite song of all time is Vermilion, both parts. Just listen to it, you won't regre it.- Share

- I've come to a very interesting conclusion... Slipknot is like a harder version of Nine Inch Nails... I know some people would look at that and go 'what?' but that's what I get out of it. Nine Inch Nails is not really that hard, in general.

- It's not as weird as you think. I know of several women who don't want kids. My wife being one. :)
I understand the pressures that are put on married women and men to have children. Some communities are have more pressure than others due to cultural or religious reasons.
There has been big pushes in media about 'motherhood' (especially) being some great accomplishment and I get that being a parent is a tough job these days but popping out a kid is no great accomplishment it's been happening for millennia. Getting it to be quiet at restaurant.. .now that's an accomplishment.
I do have very unflattering opinions about parenting I have to admit...- Share

- I feel for you. Is he still as persistent? My parents like to say that they want to be not too old to play with their grand kids all the time to my older sibling (my sister). Fortunately she wants kids, so that makes it easier for me. Still terrified of becoming an aunt though...

The people I've met who are 'child free' have been a mix bunch. Some are child free by accident, by medical condition and others by choice. The main issue is finding the 'normal' ones. I use the term normal loosely.
Key thing is having other things in common with them besides being just 'child free'. Not always easy. Some can be a bit weird. Most are nice though.- Share

- I don't know if it's a phenomenon over there but there's this odd idea that kids can take their scooters anywhere they want with them. It drives me nutty... then there's the roller shoe...

Noted, thanks for this. I'm going to keep that in mind about the normal ones. I totally agree on having something else in common, it would just be cool to have someone to relate to on that really.- Share

- This is true, but I'm like super clueless. I don't like that babies might be needy, I don't know how to talk to small children. I have never changed a diaper or babysat a kid. I kind of did that once (the babysitting) and I hated it. Kids just don't mesh with me at all. Kids from 4 and up that have been potty trained and the like, seem a little less annoying to me.

- As for a slightly lighter topic, I read an interesting article on Android Authority yesterday.
It’s not you, it’s your Android: confession of singles with iPhones
tl;dr if you can't/don't want to click: Apparently people dating other people, care about the kind of the phone they have. Note that this info is from the US but still.
Quotes to sum it up:
According to the data, iPhone users are 21 times more likely to judge you negatively for having an Android device. But the feeling is mutual, it seems. Android users are 15 times more likely to judge you negatively for being an iPhone owner.And for those of you who aren’t too keen on updating your device every year or two? Tough luck. Whether you have an iPhone or an Android, having an old model makes you 56 percent less likely to get a date, according to the survey....The usual assumption is that the inability to upgrade your device after two years equates to financial instability.- Share

That wouldn't be an issue anymore at my age, and if I were to get married, it would be to someone who either doesn't have children or his children are adults by now.- Share

- That's really cool! I find people who have phones that aren't iOS or Android a little more interesting. I don't know how common Windows Phone is where you are but it's very uncommon in the US. To date, I have only met one guy who had a 640 XL about a year ago and another gal I see at work sometimes had a 640 too.

- Why is this Outlook so complicated. Why couldn't they make it simple just like Google's mail. I've changed my Live name and photo, but I can't change the Outlook details, at least I can't find the place to do it.
