All proud and everything. She's a young twenty-something employee whose divorce from the father of her 4 year old boy isn't even close to being final.

She's pregnant with the child of her 'boyfriend', a fellow with lots of arrests and several convictions for this and that.... and she shows me this ultrasound image of the little boy in her uterus that was taken yesterday.


So how am I supposed to NOT blurt out: "CUTE LIL BASTARD, AIN'T HE?"

Appropriate response:

What is this? Your trophy from the fornication with a lowlife?

In you very best Mr. Subliminal voice; "Oh look. A little bundle of... unplanned... joy".

You think that an ultrasound makes you less of a slut?

Obviously. Because technology makes everything acceptable.

I am not even remotely surprised.

Morals and ethics in our society have become increasingly rare.

Sex has become a recreation instead of what it was meant to be. Infidelity is increasingly viewed as old fashioned and the fact that most of them swore an oath not to do such things is simply ignored. Small stuff like your word, oath, mean very little any more.

Sadly.

I don't want to see an ultrasound of any kid that isn't related to me.

I never understood that.

The circumstances don't even matter, but these make it even more strange. I think I'd probably tell her,"What makes you think I want to see that?"

Reminds me of being in the delivery room with my wife when my daughter was born. The nurse in there delivering her, looked up at me and said "Do you wanna see?"

I just stood there for a second, not really knowing what to say...I finnally just stuttered and said..."Nah, I saw it when I put it in there, I don't really care for seeing it come back out." I didn't really think about it much, the whole room rumbled with laughter, I was so nervous about everything going on I didn't realize what I had said. And I didn't really get it till later. One of those things you kinda just say without thinking about it, I think. I did laugh about it later when the nurses came back around and told me how funny I was.

The Intardweb SUCKS! I cannot find a single shot of the Alien 3 ultrasound "baby". How utterly lame.

I don't think I'd have been able to avoid saying just that.

Does seem like sort of a weird thing to just go showing off to someone who wasn't involved in its' manufacture.

I couldn't have resisted asking the $64k question "So. What does the 'father' do for a living.?" The odds are excellent that it's either;

1) He's in jail
-or-
2) He's no working

Show her pictures of your colonoscopy...

Is she hot?

I would have said " Thats a lovely picture of your little bastard you got there."

BINGO
There's a really slow girl that hangs out at the school my GF works at. She is not married and has one kid. Now she's knocked up again, my GF asked her if they were getting married. She said no they can't afford to have the kids if they get married.

My GF told her SHE was paying for her kids and the slow girls said "I don't get a check from you".

My GF works one of her jobs 7 nights a week and the school job 5 days a week.

The world is on the fast track to hell in a handbasket, No matter how hard we decent fellas try to stop it.

I was thinking the same thing... Well at least you know she puts out! And has low expectations.. For a desperate middle aged guy she might be perfect..
