Sounds reasonable, although I reckon a lot of parents will want to throttle you now. You put it in quotes. Who said it?

I can see why a parent would be offended by this, although I wouldn't say that it negates the joy that people might get from their children. Someone said this to me in a private Twitter conversation, and I thought it served as a nice daily reminder that we're all just animals.

Not much to disagree with there. Sometimes I use the
#overheard hashtag for quotes like this. Saves me having to field the "who said it?" questions.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
Thanks. I vowed never to use hashtags, but this might be a useful one.
