Help, help, I'm being oppressed!
CuteOverload is known for being one of the wankiest places on the internet. Something about adorable animals just drags out the wankers in full force.

A picture is posted of a cat and baby together. Someone apparently childfree feels the need to comment, Ugh! Cute ruined by a sproglet! Ahhhhh!

Naturally, all Hell breaks loose. Forward fly accusations that the baby is ugly, CFers are heartless, and that everyone, on both sides, is being oppressed.

Of course, it's possible to argue that the comments wouldn't have escalated if if it hadn't also been posted to cf_hardcore.

Where's the "IT IS A DAILY STRUGGLE BEING CHILDFREE" icon when you need it?

It's somewhat ironic that people who consistantly fail to spell "baby", "kitten", "feet", "love" and other simple words insist on calling people who don't want to see human kids in their cute immature.

For most, I would wager, it is the inability to STFU about not wanting to see human babies in your cute that people find immature. If you don't think it's cute, there is this amazing little button that you can press, it's called The Back Button. I realise that you can't un-see it (Seeing that baby must have scarred you for life, you poor dear!!!) but other people find babies cute, possibly even the person who, you know, runs the blog.

	I get the impression that the rabid CFers think that it's not a matter of taste, but an objective fact, that babies aren't cute, so people who post pictures of a baby as say "Isn't it cute" are part of the Conspiracy. (Reply to this)(Parent)
