Childish Defects

You've probably heard about this by now, and you may have even seen them on the Discovery Channel.

Michelle Duggar is pregnant. This is not news. It is her 18th child. That IS news.

No, that is not a typo. The Duggars will soon have eighteen (18) children. And every child's name begins with the letter "J." I know not why.

Here's a page of "fun facts" about this family. The one that blows me away is that they are debt-free.

I can't make this stuff up, folks.

IF CHILDREN COULD BE RECALLED, LIKE CARS...

"Unit experiences very unsafe wobbling when placed in upright position."

"Regardless of the time set, baby keeps going off at two o'clock in the morning!"

"Instead of cooling off, engine tends to overheat near bedtime."

"Mute button missing."

"Leaky O-Ring in rear exhaust port."

"Verbal commands seem to go in one aural input and out the other with no internal processing apparent."

"Controller for chores constantly overridden by video game controller."

"Unit has no common sense, which was clearly one of the original features requested!"
