Gifts for Two Year Olds

[jhawks99]

My DDD lovin nephew sent this child book to my granddaughter for Christmas. WFT is wrong with people?

[CrimsonNBlue]

Man, some people are just ruined right now.

What is it?!

All I see is “image”

[ProudBoy]

I think you need a tinfoil hat to see the text.

[jhawks99]

Really, I can see it. It's a cardboard book for a 2 year old girl. The text is F for Federal Reserve that is a secret bank that prints new money and devalues existing money....

The other is T for Taxes that the government takes when you make money or own stuff.

These are complete with scary, cutesy illustrations

toss it in the garbage.

problem solved.

[jhawks99]

Um, that does not solve the root cause of the problem where someone thinks this is a good gift for a two year old.

[MICHHAWK]

you thought you had a problem. i solved it. don't expect me to solve all the worlds ills.

p.s. we all get crappy gifts.

[jhawks99]

I'd rather you not try to solve anything. The problem of people thinking this is a good idea remains.

MICHHAWK seems to take zero issue with the content.

Better gift than a drum set.

Better gift than a drum set.

Both my daughter and her husband play drums, so this is wrong.

He's probably searching for one now.

Ya ok. 2 year olds can't read. 2 year olds can bang on drums.

Throw the book away. If that's not enough to please you tell the person who gave you the book to fuck off and that they aren't part of your life anymore. That should solve your problem moving forward.

This reminds me of when I was 2. My gifts were mostly Berenstein Bears.

It was feel-good childhood stories such as “the Berenstein Bears B is for BUT MAH RIGHTS” and “the Berenstein Bears tell toddlers to stop expecting someone else to wipe your ass for you and just get a damn job already”

And if Mich needs a red flag, it’s this: look how I ended up!

[MICHHAWK]

i'm guessing there are not very many two years olds on the planet that can read a book.

[defixione]

My son could read at 2 yo.

[Cascadia]

I'd bet that mich's offspring still can't read.

[PhDhawk]

Mich can't understand what he reads

[ChalkRocker]

99, I'm sorry, man.

I'm sorry your grand-daughter's gonna grow up with an Uncle like that.
