| Not a fan at all of babies. Would rather not be around them if at all possible. I don't find baby showers remotely exciting at all and would rather gouge my eyes out with a spoon. Children are OK in small doses and they have to be certain ones. Well behaved children that are semi-quiet are decent, t... |

| Why not do all your homework on loose leaf paper and hand that in thereby effectively avoiding all the copying stuff? I don't know if you are at college or University, but if you are, you should be using the copier in the library or somewhere else. Our disability resource center has a place for stud... |

| I have some really bizarre fears: 1. school buses 2. 1960's hearse style ambulances 3. Old medical equipment 4. Old hospitals. I had to stay in one once and I moved the bed to the middle of the room so I wouldn't touch the walls because they creep me out 5. Upholstery in old cars. If they've been re... |

| Getting really tired of parents telling me their rights to leave the house with their screaming children trump my rights to a peaceful trip to the mall, ride on the airplane, etc. Get over yourselves. YOU CHOSE TO HAVE CHILDREN, figure out how to control them. If you can't, work on it at home and wh... |

| Wow, I thought I was the only one who hated their name! I don't even like seeing it written. Not that it's a bad name or anything, I just hate the way it sounds. I always wanted to be a Jennifer or a Tiffany or something else. I've considered eventually going by my middle name, but I don't like that... |

| Yes, I cling. I forget who people are and get overwhelmed with more than a couple of people so I don't tend to mingle or anything. |

| I sure hope it is! But I also think I have enough health stuff that would make it dangerous to carry a child to term that I have a good enough argument. We'll see. |

| I went to a hockey game last night and 2 rows above me someone thought it would be a great idea to bring their baby who cried through part of the game and was a total distraction. When I looked up at the thing it had drool all over its face and nasty food stuck to it. It was NASTY! I spent the rest ... |

| I really, really, really dislike babies, small children, and toddlers. Older children can be moderately OK. Depends on what they're interested in, if they like science they might be OK. Otherwise ugh, they're mainly loud, smelly, obnoxious and total brats! |

| Good chance the shirt will be ignored. I wore my aspie shirt last Thursday to school and no one said a word. Not that it really matters anyway 99% of the time I'm invisible. |
