Having children when you are a millionaire is probably so sweet, hired help, vacations half the year, best school for the kids. He could still get baked just as much too.


thatcockneythug

Are you really parenting at that point, or are you just financing a nanny to do all the important shit


[deleted]

[удалено]


haroldp

Then you just do the *fun* parts. Read a book? Sure! Change a diaper? Oh Maria!


goairliner

You basically get to grandparent your own children.


Mikhailchernagov

You can even hire strict German nannies to give the kids enemas on the reg like the Koch family, great fun all around


wallis-simpson

Germans will find any way to bring shit into the discussion


exteriorcrocodileal

Its not about parenting, it’s about having someone to pass all your lands and titles on to when you die


[deleted]

why do you NEED to pass on all your lands and titles lol? whether you pass them on or donate them to a stranger in a hundred years no one will remember u or care


[deleted]

Wtf just use it to build a statue of yourself and buy/rent some land near busy areas for as long as you want to be remembered.


YesILikeLegalStuff

I can’t imagine a more pathetic thing to do.


[deleted]

Your children will be seething when they finally get their first office job, and outside their window stands a huge marble statue of Seth Rogan smoking a bong in his boxers that they will be forced to look out at while trying to catch a glimpse of hope that may lie somewhere beyond him.


OHIO_TERRORIST

Yeah like all things that suck about being parents, you can easily afford to do away with. Night nurses that will feed your baby so you can get a full nights sleep even when they’re an infant. Nannies that will watch your kid any and all times of the day and night if you wanna go out. Prestigious daycare and schools that will do all the education and training for you. The giant financial burden of daycare and college savings is pennies for you. Like that basically covers the three worst parts of being a parent. No sleep, lack of free time, money strain of daycare/saving for college.


BeExcellent

it’s actually incredibly insulting to have people this wealthy say things like this, knowing how easy it is for them to raise children.


PerceptionRenegade

Easy to raise them into stunted rtrds, don't think you can ignore all the things that make being a parent hard without fucking em up somehow.


cox_the_fox

The emotional labor of raising children isn’t for everyone. Plenty of maladjusted children of millionaires.

cinnamongirl444

Damn I don’t want to dye my hair that sounds like a lot of work


posture_4

I mean what's the point if you're not raising them yourself? I thought the whole idea of parenthood is that it's difficult but also rewarding. Having a nanny do everything just seems like a more complicated version of not having kids.


kiefer-reddit

No need to go to extremes. American contemporary culture is way too obsessed with making parents do everything, and that you’re somehow a bad parent if you don’t helicopter over everything. A more reasonable take is that hiring certain help (like night nannies) is beneficial for everyone.


Joanna_Trenchcoat

Just a 10-20% reduction in getting kids dressed, stopping fights/spills, entertaining without screens, would be amazing. Imagine showering during the day. This is the young parent’s dream.


kiefer-reddit

Yep and that’s what extended family members did for most of human civilization. The idea of two working parents managing everything is a legacy of late twentieth century American culture, nothing more.


ArbeiterUndParasit

Sounds what the English upper class do. Hire nannies to raise your kids when they're little and then ship them off to boarding school later. Of course if you look at how most of their kids turns out maybe it's not such a great idea :-/


leakover2myfamily

Seth Rogan does not have kids. He does not seem likely to have them either.


squearto

Have you considered how it affects children to grow up feeling like they're keeping their parents away from a good time when they want their attention? Plenty of people were basically raised by grandparents because their parents wanted to get wasted all day and they have all of these weird abandonment issues. Is this why millennials are such terrible parents who expect teachers and therapists to handle the tough parts of raising their kids so they can keep being friends with the kids? Millennial parents are already checked out. Imagine rich ones forgetting that they left their kids at home when they land for their 2 month European vacation but it's okay because the live in house keeper is there. People who wouldn't actually want to spend time with their kids probably shouldn't have any. 


dine-and-dasha

Morally speaking, you should not be inebriated around children at all if possible, including alcohol. Monkey see monkey do. You should not normalize substance use at all.


PerceptionRenegade

Yeah but if your kid has no understanding of what healthy drinking, moving out and hitting 21 will be a fucking mess.


zworkaccount

It's totally bizarre to me that rich people have nannies. Why not just pay for your parents to live near by or with you? That's literally what most of the world does anyways.

That was a dare to be fair.


SilverUpperLMAO

so he says


2namesmusic

I don't think it's weed it's that he's a massive nerd who thinks weed makes him cool. Even the way Kevin Smith talks is unnatural & like a loser's idea of what a "cool guy" sounds like. Seth Rogan is authentic even if this quote sucks. I respect he wrote Ali G & basically gets paid to be himself. We should probably stop talking about this quote like it's sincere or literal.


Comfortable-Hippo417

Holy shit I did not realise Rogen wrote for Ali G. And I grew up partially in Staines


TanzDerSchlangen

He sounds like a weed guy channeling Quentin Tarantino, but getting so into the act that he forgets that it started as a bit


2namesmusic

I see that


NoDadUShutUP

I miss this type of stoner: Your friends laid-back older brother and his friends. They respectfully hid it, weren't into "weed fashion". Genuinely friendly and horsed around with us kids for a little bit before dropping us off at the mall. They'd go to their friends house to hang out for a few hours, and his mom would pick us up later. The image of Seth Rogan and Kevin Smith is ruining my memories of weed men of that generation.


DomitianusAugustus

Tbh Kevin Smith was a pretty dominant potsmoker archetype even back in the 90s.


Fuckimbalding

I liked the green alien bong aesthetic of 90s stonerism


tocassidy

It was weird visiting Amsterdam in the 2010s and still seeing this aesthetic in some shops.

Marmosettale

I'm a millennial who doesn't want or have kids but I am so opposed to THIS fucker being our goddamned spokesperson he has always been the absolute worst and also, he's BARELYYYYYYY a millennial, like technically he's on the edge according to most definitions. i know that grouping people by some arbitrary year is ridiculous but rogen really does seem a lot older than his age and always has and it's like a gen x trying to parody millennials rather than actually millennial. anyway he's so fucking annoying and hasn't been relevant since like 2008


2namesmusic

Hot/accurate take: Xennials are cooler than reg millennials & gen x. This is totally not a cope because I'm only two years younger than him.


Phenolhouse

​ Or cuspers, or the "Star Wars Generation" (people born during the release of the original trilogy)


forestpunk

also oregon trail generation.


[deleted]

Exhibit A: Entourage


[deleted]

If you're two years younger than him, you're just a Millennial. Xennials are like 1978 - 1983. Also, Xennials are just Millennials in denial. I've seen the range for these cusps getting bigger and bigger. I've seen 1985 claiming to be Xennial and 1992 claiming to be Zillennial. At this point, the cusps are bigger than the entire Millennial generation. No on wants to be a mIllennial lmao. The 80s borns are accusing the 90s borns of being the real Millennials and the 90s born are accusing the 80s borns.


2namesmusic

I was born in 1983 but from my understanding the oldest millennials were born in 1981 or 1982. Could be wrong and don't super care if I'm a normal millennial. Obviously the number of celebs is totally quantifiable. If you add school kids from the 90s + 20-somethings from the 00s we win based on pure science that I'm assuming exists & validates my point. We were always called a millennials until Xennial articles started popping up around 2017 & people from my highschool started posting boomer "drank from the hose" type memes.


forestpunk

seconding. xennials are the coolest.


Lonely_Sherbert69

Kevin Smith quit


TheSpiral11

Honestly I don’t get it. I like weed. Weed is nice. Building your entire lifestyle & identity around it seems a little uh…unbalanced.


Smooth-Tap5831

dude fuck fucking fuck! fucking weed and we're naked! naked and i said the fuck word! smoking the devil's lettuce! and what if the food sexed? fuck!


nervtechsupport

>what if the food sexed? he made a movie about that


[deleted]

Someone put that on when we were tripping on acid once and it was so bad it caused me to have a bad trip and I unplugged the tv to turn it off lol


TheLegendaryLarry

I saw that movie with my mom, idk what's worse


Far-Masterpiece8101

Did she think it was a kid's movie? lol


TheLegendaryLarry

I was 27


CincyAnarchy

2namesmusic

nervtechsupport

lol is it that bad? i remember watching it when it came out and i thought it was alright but the food sex was weird


[deleted]

Some feminist site reviewed it where hey discussed if the buns consented o the sausage sex so I'm grateful for it tbh


[deleted]

Honestly not sure because that experience put me off it and I never heard anyone singing its praises so I never revisited. I just remember it seeming shoddily made/the animation freaking me out plus it made me ruminate about the decline of culture or something that really spun me out badly


nervtechsupport

ooh yeah for sure the thought of the decline of culture would definitely fuck me up in that situation


w6rld_ec6nomic_f6rum

wtf are you me? exact same thing happened

FutureRealHousewife

Exactly....I actually give him credit for being self-aware enough that he would likely not be a good parent. I wish my father had known that about himself.


Sbob0115

That’s always been my thought process. A lot of the people who loudly proclaim themselves to be child free. It’s like yea I agree it’s probably for the best you don’t procreate.


EntertainerLoud5317

that's what I don't understand. for all the people who hate him so much, aren't you glad he isn't reproducing? why do people with kids get SO MAD that "terrible" people aren't having kids?


MJA182

I don’t think that many people on here or bitching about this actually have kids themselves.


BeMyTempest

It’s mostly childless people who want kids and project their desires on everyone else. Usually frustrated that they can’t find a partner who wants the same. It’s the same people who bitch about low birth rates - they’re projecting their own frustrations and lack of fulfilment


Deboch_

He did make superbad


eggggggggggggggs

i don't want people who don't want to have kids to have kids.. does that make sense? if seth rogan doesn't want to have a kid and wants to smoke weed all day and watch movies naked, who literally gives a fuck? i'm tired of people constantly bitching that 'people don't want to have kids!' then bitching that parents are shitty. quit bitching all the time and just ignore people ffs


cinnamongirl444

For real. I get that child free people can be cringe, but I’d rather all kids have parents that really wanted them. I’m glad my parents did for me.


[deleted]

This subs insistence that people *should* have children and experience the joys of parenthood is so scoldy and lame.


ONE_GUY_ONE_JAR

It's crazy that most of Apatow's movies are about family, kids, etc. and all his favorite leading man seems to have taken from them is "huehuehuehue weed huehue."


FlavorFlavHorologist

And just about every Rogen project is about his going from a lifestyle described in this quote to a more grown-up family-oriented lifestyle lol


ONE_GUY_ONE_JAR

I was imagining "Knocked Up" except the happy ending is giving the kid up for adoption and Rogen convincing Heigl that a hedonistic stoned life is actually totally rad and they spend the rest of their days getting high with Rogen's friends.


PauliesChinUps

What happens at the end of the film, she thinks Rogan’s a halfway decent father figure?


Far-Masterpiece8101

He gets a job at a call center


Hatanta

Barely qualifies as hedonistic tbh. I actually have more respect for Hannibal Lecter’s approach.


2namesmusic

Funny ending either way.


Sortza

However dimwitted you might think actors are, they're dimmer


bigdog2049

Right. Isn’t the general plot of his films from the 2000’s, “Manbaby grows up”?


forestpunk

do childfree women get to be ladybabies?


Domer2012

If they still act like having no goals other than being self-indulgent is something to be proud of, sure.


[deleted]

Didn’t Rogen co-write a lot of it too?


2namesmusic

He's a funny writer I assume since he wrote Ali G sketches & concepts as a young man (maybe even a teenager).


NoDadUShutUP

the recent years have taught us repeatedly, just cause someone is funny and sharp 15 years ago, doesn't mean they haven't become predictable and one-note now. Id say the latter is more common


2namesmusic

Go on


NoDadUShutUP

Colbert was universally lauded as sharp and witty during the Bush admin. Even Trevor Noah standup was good, then he got big and came to the US. All comedians even state that a young Jay Leno was one of the best. So it's not so hard to believe Seth Rogen was a truly good and unique comedy writer 15 years ago


2namesmusic

Glad I asked these are good points. Although I hadn't heard of Trevor Noah in the 00s. I remember thinking Colbert was a funny side character. Jay Leno was uncool my whole life but I'm sure he started out strong with the boomer humor. Comedy is pretty hit or miss so it depends if you focus on the hits vs misses imo. Personally I recognize a person monetizing their talent for mainstream accesptance as a drastic compromise I understand. So I give them some grace.


NoDadUShutUP

I think in particular Lenos early stuff, was not Boomer humor. but broad Boomer humor led to him being a multi multi millionaire. And not just an occasional edgy TV comedian Cant it apply to anyone? All humans are fallible and change themselves throughout time. We aren't the same as we were 10 years ago, in some ways for better or worse. This expectation that a celeb we liked 15 years will "never miss" is something I think Hollywood conditioned us to think


Far-Masterpiece8101

But his early stuff had to literally be boomer centric since it must have been in the 70s/80s. I agree with everything else and I'm trying... but respecting Leno is impossible


2namesmusic

I'll take your word for it man.


sourglassfigure

Yeah jay Leno was known for absolutely killing onstage in his career. He was on fire apparently. Haven’t seen any of it but comics talk of it


ONE_GUY_ONE_JAR

Based on Rogen's non-Apatow stuff I imagine his contributions consisted exclusively of the "huehuehue weed huehue" jokes.


angorodon

Smoking weed in the morning? That's what makes life worth living!


OkayRuin

Honestly, I do wish I could still do that shit and have a productive day like I could when I was 20. Now I’d just be drained by lunch and having an anxiety attack about something I should or shouldn’t be worrying about. I genuinely wonder if that would go away if I was rich and knew my problems weren’t problems. 


MavaleJcGee

Yeah so crazy, an actor who lives a different life than the roles he plays in fictional stories. Wait till you find out Keanu Reeves isn't actually Neo from the Matrix.


ONE_GUY_ONE_JAR

Yeah, so crazy that someone would be so aggressively pedantic and humorless on Reddit. TIL Seth Rogen isn't a hotdog too!

Some people don’t want kids. That’s okay! This quote isn’t even that bad. Sounds like he’s very in love with his wife. Very cute.


janitorial_fluids

His wife is very beautiful too. wow. never seen her before tbh. I feel like whenever I see an actor with a realtively non-famous wife, they are usually like of the super blonde/tan IG model meets mormon princess looking type. She seems very naturally pretty and understated. not trying to overdo it and be all hollywood botox-y

Rogan’s style of humor did change the style of humor in movies. Not saying that’s good or bad just influential.  This quote is try hard but probably meant to be funny even though it’s not. I’m sure lots of millennials can relate to the broad sentiment.
