Things Get Shirty on Stupid_Free
... when a post about an 18 year old trying to get pregnant with her 28 year old fiance hits the comm. Cue lots and lots and LOTS of offensive and defensive wank about teenage pregnancy and/or marriage and/or age differences in relationships, with some squicky/hilarious/startlingly-thoughtful results.

This thread, featuring a man who met and was attracted to his girlfriend when she was 13 is especially creepy. We get aaaaaaaaall the interesting ones of LJ, donchaknow!

Oh, hell no.

*Personal anecdote time*

1. I work with 13 year olds. I'm not a fan of generalisations, but none of them are mature/developed/whatever other words he used to have a relationship with someone in their twenties. No. Fucking. Way. They do not, in fact, look like they are 20 years old either, however hard and fast puberty has hit. They have not had the life experience of a 20 year old, they do not have the interpersonal skills of a 20 year old and they sure as hell do not have enough understanding of sex to be having it.

However advanced a 13 year old is, it will not change the fact that they are 13. Really, none of them will have the answer for, "Okay, I don't care if you do your homework. Do it or your subject teacher will give you a detention, your choice."

2. I had a relationship with an older guy when I was 13. Paedophile. Yeah, he didn't technically co-erce me into anything, but that isn't the point; I didn't have the knowledge to realise the situation was wrong. I thought I was a girl and her boyfriend, because 13 year olds are dumb. And if he hadn't broken up with me, I'm sure I'd still be hero-worshipping him with a warped mind to this very day.

3. He *actually* tells people about this on the internet?!

Must it be? I thought we were trying to make otf_wank funny again. I mean, I know the topic of this post isn't helping any, but still. :(

Can we make that the new anti-serious meme? It can be like a [info]jurisimprudence law. "Any wanka who gets too serious in a wank community shall have ferrets put down their pants until they become funny again."

True.

Please pretend the personal anecdote was, in fact, a witty joke. Possibly one with monkeys and a toaster.

*Personal anecdote time*

Whenever I hear "Pug" by the Smashing Pumpkins, I think of Vladimir Putin. I first heard the song while I was reading an article in Time about him, and for some reason it stuck in my head.

Now I shudder when the song comes up on my playlist, because the song is sexy, and Poutine Putin isn't.

...did you notice how boring this comment is, by chance?

It's okay, it's a joke now. About monkeys and a toaster. It's also put ferrets down pants.

But I did think that your comment was actually kind of interesting.

disco fries

I just got a really weird mental image of a disco ball and fries.

Now I have the image of people eating disco fries only to have ABBA blare out of their mouths every time they talk. It'd be disturbing if the people weren't wearing roller skates and white leisure suits.

I tend to think 20-somethings rhapsodizing about the 13 year old prodigies they're so in love with has much more to do with the maturity level of the 20-something than that of the pubescent.

Hey, I knew you were all longing to hear my thoughts on yaoi.

THANK YOU. Your BRAIN doesn't stop growing and maturing until you're at least 18, not to mention your body, emotions, experience, and social skills. How many of us were 'just as mature' as 20 as when we were 13? NOBODY IS. Because you're still GROWING UP.

Really? Oh, goody! So, yesterday, when I was opening a bottle of tea? It exploded. I didn't know tea could do that.

That is almost as awesome as the time when my choir director found a bra in the choir room. (Admittedly, the room was being used as the girl's changing room for the musical after school, but still...)

Now that must've made for a cringe-worthy embarrassing moment! [boggles</i?]

Oh, come on, people - if the anonymouse had written this comment without putting "personal anecdote time" at the beginning, nobody would have batten an eye. It's no less or more boring than any of the thousands of other personal story comments in this thread.

Unfortunately, s/h/it did, propelling it over the line into 'absurd lack of self-awareness' territory. Also, the people bitching about it bitch about *all those other* unfunny comments too; there was even a modpost about it!

Actually, the *personal anecdote time* line makes it seem pretty self-aware.

Still no lulz, but oh well.
