Kerry's Twisted Logic
Posted by erin at November 19, 2003 05:51 PMA conversation:
Kerry: You and N. should have kids.
Erin: What?! Why?
Kerry: That way, your kids can play with my kids.That's the worst reason to have kids I've ever heard! (OK, maybe not the worst, but perhaps in the top ten.)

He said the same thing about me and Ryan!

hurm... Sam and my nonexistent kids must not be good enough to play with Kerry and Takako's nonexistenant kids.

To their credit, they have one existing child on the way at least.

If you are still surprised by Kerry's logic, you must not have realized that the logic is sound, it's only the premises that are flawed. Chiefly, this premise:
Kerry is the center of the universe around which all other things must conform themselves.
Once you realize this, everything that Kerry says and does makes perfect sense. Of course you and N. should have children (as should Maggie and Ryan and probably Sam and Adan) not because you want or need an expensive hobby that will age you 10 years, but because if Kerry is the only one with children, he will feel left out of the social group, and since Kerry is the center of the universe around which all things must conform themselves, that simply cannot be. Therefore, you must all take up the same expensive hobby and manufacture baby humans in your bellies, so that the social group will continue intact.
If you want my opinion (of course you do!), should you be tempted to manufacture babies in your belly, you should calculate the money that it will take you during the first year and start setting it aside during the course of a year. Then use it to make a low budget film.

I say you should all have babies and name all of them Ken.

Hmmm, she must have learned my tricks somehow....
ps- Ken, I'm with you.

Money it will take for one year of kid-having:
1. Cage- $50 for chickenwire and 2x4's
2. Newspapers for cage- free
3. Wife's breasts- free
4. Ninja weapons for training- borrow from Kerry
That is about all I can think of. Taking the kid to a doctor will only encourage weakness. I don't think anyone can make much of a film for $50.
