    Haha, I did actually. We're talking right now. She thinks I'm stupid that I'll leave tomorrow at lunch the latest (because of my job) when the doctor wanted to keep me the whole day
    You will win her over yet!

    None of the best places in the world are cities at all!

    Every city I've ever been to is crawling with dirty, stinking, detestable animals that stampede around the place oblivious of their environment...raping, murdering, stealing and treating their pack like enemies, destroying all the other animals with wanton disregard and gluttonous appetite...nasty critters.

    Yessir that's exactly what I'm saying!
    Never been disappointed to hear those bass notes ring out at a show, and I've been lucky to get it at least 4 times.

    Now I understand how women giving birth in the US feels like.

    Unless you pushed your appendix through the hole of your penis I don't think you have any clue what giving birth feels like.  ;)

    It's obvious ofc, but I'm taking about the piss poor treatment of parents (and small children) is in the US.

    SWEDEN:
    3 months paid leave for each parent. 300 more days to share. 

    USA:
    No paid leave. Max 12 weeks of unpaid parental leave.

    U-S-A! U-S-A!

    Yes, I guess its called that... Got three holes in me instead of one big one. Haha. But it was very infected so it wasn't as easy as it usually is, but they didn't have to cut me up.

    Piss poor treatment?  What are you talking about?
    Both my wife and I both got six weeks paid leave (New Jersey) after my youngest song was born.

    "This is one of the lowest levels of leave in the industrialized world. In comparison to other countries, the United States is one of the only countries in the world, and the only OECD member, that has not passed laws requiring business and corporations to offer paid maternity leave to their employees.[3]"

    my wife got a year. we could have split it between us if we had chosen to do that. canada is actually, to my knowledge, considering lengthening paid leave to 2 years. 

    I recall my wife's sister in law who lives in Green Bay and has very good private benefits was back at work when their first born was 6 weeks old. I simply cannot imagine handing my 6 week old over to another caregiver.
