children

Parenting is a challenge. If you don't have a kid yourself, parents will be very willing to tell you that it's a full time job making sure they stay safe, get fed, get enough sleep and learn something every once in a while. Of course parenting is full of ungraceful moments. That's why there are parenting memes for all the exhausted adults.

There's no getting around the fact that children are just plain old strange. They're these miniature human beings that have an uncanny knack for spewing out wildly unexpected sentiments at a moment's notice. Naturally, some kids are more devious than others. Maybe you were one of those kids yourself. Hard pressed to follow the rules that the rest of society put in place, and told you to abide by. Maybe you were just channeling that oppositional energy from a young age, and it ended up getting you in a whole lot of trouble. If that's the case, you probably had your work cut out for you as you navigated the ins and outs of school. Oh, school. A time ripe for learning about the consequences of not following the rules. Maybe that rule breaking behavior ended up manifesting in you dishing out all kinds of creative and ridiculous insults to those around you.

This particular AskReddit thread honors the most outlandish and humorous insults that kids ended up coming up with. If you're an adult on the receiving end of one of these insults, hopefully you didn't take the insult seriously for a second, and instead appreciated that kid's ability to churn out some banter that you'd never heard before. Banter can certainly be fun if we allow ourselves to drop our guards, and just play along with it. Of course there are lines that shouldn't be crossed, and that can end up being the time that kids are better educated on what they really shouldn't be saying to other members of society.

You don't want to end up growing up to be one of those adults with a nasty head on their shoulders, a misplaced moral compass, and a daunting inability to treat those around you with a sliver of respect. As with all matters of life, there's a strange balance to these things. We love a good roast or creative insult here. Especially when you get the ruthless silver tongued wordsmiths in the comments section that are ready to stir up all kinds of trouble. The YouTube comments section is really its own kind of comedy goldmine. You've got to love the internet for what it provides there. It can be this playground of sorts where everyone goes to work at trying out their most absurd insults. You just don't want to take things too far. Sometimes, you can get lost in the fun of a back and forth with another online user and end up saying something that you ultimately come to regret. But anyways, all ramblings about the wild realm of online banter aside, these kids certainly brought their A game for when it came to surprising folks around them with unexpected words of sheer ruthlessness. If anything, we'd have loved to been able to read more about the fallout from some of the more piercing insults. It really just boils down to whoever ends up receiving that insult. It'd sure be nice if everyone in the world had a great sense of humor, but thus is not always the case.

This woman moved into a new home and after meeting her new neighbor and determining that there'd be some loud kids stirring up all kinds of noise, she let the mom know that she'd probably just proactively try to drown out that noise with some sweet tunes. Apparently, the mom didn't take too kindly too this. It could be viewed as a potentially tough call on whether or not the music blaster's in the wrong. On the one hand, nobody wants to hear a relentless onslaught of kids being crazy loud, but the music might also only make the situation that much worse. You be the judge though, who's in the wrong here? 

While kids have garnered plenty of a reputation for being flat out silly and dumb, they can also get devilishly inventive when faced with the possibility of getting in trouble for a continued pattern of unacceptable behavior. This toddler decided to dip into their word bank and pull out a new word for the explicit purpose of being able to cuss at their parent without having to actually "swear." 

If you had like a coworker who was a child, you'd never get anything done. We know that from our own experiences as children that kids are weird and dumb. Sure, they're still learning that life makes no damn sense, but that doesn't detract from the fact that kids are strange and stupid.

Kids are weird and dumb. Sometimes they get really specific thoughts stuck in their head and given the choice to ask for anything they could ever want, will choose to ask for something like a box of kleenex or a really old pug. Here are some strange experiences for the holiday season.

Kids may be weird and dumb, but we can't really fault them for it. These ones are just doing their best to try and provide an accurate and reliable recipes. Will we try them out ourselves? Oh man, definitely not. We'll just have to take it with a grain of salt, and that's it.

It's not a question that kids are weird and dumb. They'll take multiple bites of fake fruit, lie about objective facts, and cover themselves in house paint for no reason. Everyone knows a few moments that prove the weird dumbness of children, especially when it comes to the stupid things they remember themselves doing. 

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the pettiest things that adults did to kids. You better not get any dang ideas. And if you do just remember that there will be a spiteful little cretin full of devilish persuasion ready to act on your antics. 

Sure, children aren't exactly full-on people with cognitive skills or hand-eye coordination, but that shouldn't give them an excuse for being some of the stupidest and weirdest people ever. Kids are dumb and weird. Everyone knows it, and everyone remembers it. Whether it was when we tried to hid behind sheer curtains or try to make a point, we were just proving that kids are strange and dumb.

It's no question that kids are stupid and weird. They're horrible liars, they don't know how to read, they lack basic coordination skills and a lot of them look like they've never worked a day in their life. From sharpie-ing the dog to attempting to eat wax fruit, there's more than enough proof that kids are stupid and weird.

Did anyone need any more proof that kids are stupid and weird? Probably not. We remember all the times we tried to hide behind a window or cried because we ate all of our french fries. Most of us grow out of it, but we also leave behind too many moments that prove kids are dumb and weird.

If you're the kind of person who likes sleeping and not cleaning chocolate sauce out of your couch, it's good to think really hard about the decision to have kids. Kids are stupid and weird and disaster tends to follow them, so let these be a reminder. We remember being weird and dumb kids, and we're not sure if we'd want to deal with us.
