I get to be bored when I'm struck with horrible ennui.

This is precisely why I'm real with my own children. They'll grow up to be as real and together as I am.

As a guy, these girls make me want daughters. Freakin adorable.

Out of order.

But then you realize a majority of kids do not think in a rational way like we do. So There's a big chance this will go over their heads.
OSCgal
How do you think kids learn to think rationally? This is one way to teach it.
CocktailGaming
Oh absolutely, I'm not saying not to do it. That's definitely how to do it. It just might not work with 100% of kids.
griffinzoth
Yeah but don't get him started on deer.
bouncebounceandtheclaw
The frustrating part is saying this to your kid and leading by example and they still have no idea what you mean. Maybe it comes with age...
myvulvaissmootherthanavealcutlet
But he isn't leading by example. He is willfully unfair to a child, teaching her injustice is ok because fairness is difficult.
ImAfraidIBlueMyselfForNothing
what's funny is in this scene, she doesn't learn that, she gets chocolate instead.

I like that he's not the archetypal bumbling dad; he's a bumbling human being, but his parenting game is spot-on.
DeadGodJess
He confesses that he used to be, and had to learn to step up as a parent because leaving everything to mom doesn't cut it.

Way to go incorrectly applying the message!

I accept the fact but disagree with the resolve. Life IS unfair but can't say to just accept it- how else would they fight for their rights?

Accidentally read 'prawn' instead of spawn. Had the best image of a man giving advice to a prawn going on though

The only question I have about this OP... is what did you do to the first three Manbearpigs?

Those girls are really good actors for their age.

The fact that you actually believe that he's their real father is a good indication of their acting skills, because he isn't.
TheLeafVillagesHandsomeDevil
They are so much better than kid actors on, any other network, really.
varsil
"Only look into your neighbour's bowl to see if they have enough" sounds like a great way to tell people to not worry if they get screwed.
LmSquared
In reality, if you instill in your child the habit of comparing what they have with what everyone else has it will debilitate them.
varsil
Like, if my neighbour on my right doesn't have enough, I might look to see if the neighbour on the left has taken all their damn food.
pgdave
Yeah - the world isn't fair, but we should *strive* to make it fair. "The world is cruel" isn't an argument to perpetuate cruelty.
Bacxaber
Thank you for finding a way to word what I've felt for years. +1 for you.
Nogha
Sure, give your kid a crappy childhood so that they don't have to deal with a small period of adjustment to the real world.
SpectacularSpectacular
Seriously. With a lot of poor neighborhoods 1 of the major problems kids there deal with is believing they're not worth being treated fairly
ogmudbone
I think if anything ' I'm bored' indicates that you'd like to see more of the world but are currently obligated to do otherwise [1/2]
ogmudbone
We've all felt it at one time or another so i think it's kinda shitty to tell someone they don't get to be bored
ColinCraig
Life is pain, highness, and anyone who tries to tell you different is selling something.

"sigmaecho"is kin of a dick. But seriously Google "louis CK stand up" and watch a youtube clip. He is easily one of the best comics today.

His name is Louis c.k. if you haven't seen his stand up, check him out on Netflix. Pure genius. :-)

Yeah, these are scenes from the upcoming 8th season of Parks and Rec.

Yes! that's him! he is NOT like that character in his other shows
motittiesmoproblems
I was so excited when I started watching p&r cuz he was in it. That was what kept me watching
tob1o
Actually I think he kind of is, just less exagerated. He always tell things the way he thinks them
foxtrotninerniner
I got a kick out of how well he did "Small-town police officer" talk. Cracked me up.
crazyjoe
The "I'm bored" thing always irked me too. How can you even say that? It's like you're insulting your own ability to think or do things.
Barbado
In Chile they say that only idiots get bored.
morrissimo
My parents trained that out of me as a kid by assigning extra chores anytime I said it - amazing how well it worked
IPeakedinSecondGrade
Really? My parents did the same thing and the only thing I learned from it was resentment.
myvulvaissmootherthanavealcutlet
I never understood punishing kids for expressing themselves. No they shouldn't whine, but teach them a polite way to say it, not punish them

Because kids will be kids.

When I was in high school, we would always say "Boredom is a reflection of self," so we would push ourselves out of the habit.

my mom always told me, only boring people are bored.

my brain and i are rarely on speaking terms, and frankly the 'wonder of the universe' isn't always interesting.
ArdentSlacker
There are a few types of bored. "Nothing is worth the effort" means you're tired, for example.
IamMelonLordeYaYaYa
To be fair, that's a small child in a car. Yeah, the world is huge, but she is strapped into a seat and can't move at the moment.
Toadsworth
I looked in the comments for this side of the argument, thank you. I do believe the other side to be true to some degree as well though.
brojustshowmeyourdickbro
Agreed. He's not taking her on trips around the world to explore it. Probably to a grocery store.
ImJustaPickle
Grandma's house or something, if I recall correctly. But yeah, boring trip either way.
ladyjigglebutt
That's where the whole encouraging them to use their imagination comes in.
IAlwaysPupvoteDog
And then they laugh/talk too much, cueing endless screaming from dad about how they are spoiled brats? Being a child fucking sucks.
ladyjigglebutt
Only if you have shitty parents. Sorry about your parents by the way.
StabbyAlligator
Yeah I really hate that comment. Sometimes you HAVE TO BE DOING SOMETHING THAT IS BORING.
AdorableEvil
Her internal life is so incredibly small. She hasn't experienced enough to populate the inside of her head.
Bangui
My internal life at that age consisted of a twin who followed our car on a horse and needed me to telepathically guide her around obstacles.
Bangui
My point being, "boredom" only exists relative to the scope of activities you'd like to be doing instead.
AdorableEvil
You were learning navigation at age 6?
clawthewolf
And well, the ability to be bored is apparently an evolutionary trait, since well, in many cases we come up with out best ideas when bored.

I matured very quickly when I was young, and that had it's negatives because I often felt out of place or misunderstood. Eventually I (1/3)

realized that a big part of maturing was occasionally stopping to think about yourself, other people, and the world around you, and (2/3)
TrainingTofu
the vast majority of my peers never did this. They needed constant stimulus to not feel "bored." I think that's what Louie is talking about.
HeyLookAGinger
Also that there is more information in the world that could be absorbed by a single lifetime+ you own imagination=limitless things to see/do
AncalagontheBlack
Exactly. If I was exploring the world I wouldn't be bored but I'm not, I'm standing in line at a Walmart.
HeyLookAGinger
Then explore the inifite well that is your mind.
Waganga
Then the question becomes: why are you standing in line at Walmart when you could be exploring the world?
LtCmmdrData
wtf you think I"m made of money?

Money.
AncalagontheBlack
Because I can't get very far before I need to come back home so I can be at work on time.
soso456
and you work each day of your life I guess?
RexTheRed
It's kind of hard to explore the world over a short weekend (if you get that), especially when you're so exhausted from the work week.
MustBHacks
Work 5 days a week, then you have your recovery day, and your preparing to go back to work day. Rinse repeat.
