They shouldn't censor the crazy parents names in the screencaps -- those idiots should have to live with the shame of being bad, crazy parents.

It would be funnier without the 200-word synopsis underneath each one.

I admit that I am a parent who sometimes posts parental-type status updates on FB. But man, I'd rather read about people's kids than get another link to what somebody said about Keith Olbermann or Sarah Palin or whatever.

I am so happy that no one on my friends list posts about politics ever.

No one's really awful about their parent-related stuff, although I probably post too many pictures of my kids, to be sure.

ok mr blog dude:

This submission had me at “ninja turtles,” which any former fan knows is the super cool nickname for “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.” You’re either down with Michaelangelo, Leonardo, Donatello and Raphael, or you’re not. And I guess you could say that C. is firmly planted in the “not” camp.

Tumblr isn't as good as Flickr. I actually enjoy the galleries on Flickr and visit often.

as someone with one facebook friend who is constantly updating about her motherly troubles, i can honestly say that STFUPARENTS made me cringe with laughter. like, people putting up ultrasound pics? fuck you, i hate you.

You have to write 200 words for something to show up in google, FYI. So this guy is just a SAVVY BUSINESSMAN

The lomgwinded commentaries definitely kinda kill the lols on that tumblr. Also makes me a little self-conscious abt my IA rants, lol.

A friend's sister today posted a 35 second video of her newborn baby daughter watching Bette Midler's new tv special. Which was simultaneously cute bc aw new mum and all but also, um, you know it's probably not Bette the baby is staring dazedly at right?

But I dunno, I have friends who would be all over this blog for the lols but it seems like an easy target. Some of the things like being sad at dropping your kid off at school are genuine things, maybe not always FB worthy but...I dunno. I'm conflicted

I hid all the moms (and it was all moms) whose lives revolve around their offspring. I'll take politics any day.

Considering the most recent post on this blog is a kid skating around in his own diahhorea, I dunno.

Tellin u, it's to juke google results and increase traffic. The business model of having a dipshit
r tumblr requires more words than substance.

Obv i don't give a shit about being a "successful internet entity" or all my puppy captions would be 400 words long

fwiw i liked the idea of the tumblr and the goofy screenshots but was pretty indifferent to the editorializing.
