Diaper Party Quotes

From adult diapers to bedpans? Move over, Elvis, I’m the afterlife of the party!

Of all the spirits I have seen, only Elvis and Mr. Sinatra are able to manifest in the garments of their choice. Others haunt me always in whatever they were wearing when they died. This is one reason I will never attend a costume party dressed as the traditional symbol of the New Year, in nothing buy a diaper and a top hat. Welcomed into either Hell or Heaven, I do not want to cross the threshold to the sound of demonic or angelic laughter. ~Odd Thomas

And we were in our thirties. Well into the Age of Boredom, when nothing is new. Now, I’m not being self-pitying; it’s simply true. Newness, or whatever you want to call it, becomes a very scarce commodity after thirty. I think that’s unfair. If I were in charge of the human life span, I’d make sure to budget newness much more selectively, to ration it out. As it is now, it’s almost used up in the first three years of life. By then you’ve seen for the first time, tasted for the first time, held something for the first time. Learned to walk, talk, go to the bathroom. What have you got to look forward to that can compare with that? Sure, there’s school. Making friends. Falling in love. Learning to drive. Sex. Learning to trade. That has to carry you for the next twenty-five years. But after that? What’s the new excitement? Mastering your home computer? Figuring out how to work CompuServe? “Now, if it were up to me, I’d parcel out. So that, say, at thirty-five we just learned how to go on the potty. Imagine the feeling of accomplishment! They’d have office parties. "Did you hear? The vice president in charge of overseas development just went a whole week without his diaper. We’re buying him a gift." It’d be beautiful.

One had the feeling that she would have been perfectly content if the June evening had been endless and the supply of clothes inexhaustible, to remain there for a thousand years, pegging out diapers and singing rubbish. It struck him as a curious fact that he had never heard a member of the Party singing alone and spontaneously. it would even have seemed slightly unorthodox, a dangerous eccentricity, like talking to oneself. Perhaps it was only when people were somewhere near the starvation level that they had anything to sing about.

International Socialist Review Issue 24, July–August 2002 Stephen Jay Gould: Dialectical Biologist by Phil Gasper Every major newspaper carried an obituary of Gould after his death, praising his scientific accomplishments. But most said nothing about another important aspect of Gould’s life–his radical politics. Gould was a red diaper baby. His maternal grandparents were Jewish immigrants who worked in Manhattan’s garment sweatshops in the early years of the last century, just blocks from the horrific Triangle Shirtwaist fire that killed 146 workers in 1911. "I grew up in a family of Jewish immigrant garment workers," Gould wrote, "and this holocaust (in the literal meaning of a thorough sacrifice by burning)…set their views and helped to define their futures."4 Gould’s parents were New York leftists, probably in or around the Communist Party in the 1930s, and he once boasted that he had learned his Marxism "literally at [my] daddy’s knee.

Normalcy?” I ask, louder than is probably necessary, surprising myself with the unusual amount of animated expression in my voice. “A regular human being? Jesus, what the fuck is there in that? What does that even mean? Credit card debt, a mortgage, a nagging spouse and bratty kids and a minivan and a fucking family pet? A nine-to-five job that you hate, and that’ll kill you before you ever see your fabled 401k? Cocktail parties and parent-teacher conferences and suburban cul-de-sacs? Monogamous sex, and the obligatory midlife crisis? Potpourri? Wall fixtures? Christmas cards? A welcome mat and a mailbox with your name stenciled on it in fancy lettering? Shitty diapers and foreign nannies and Goodnight Moon? Cramming your face with potato chips while watching primetime television? Antidepressants and crash diets, Coach purses and Italian sunglasses? Boxed wine and light beer and mentholated cigarettes? Pediatrician visits and orthodontist bills and college funds? Book clubs, PTA meetings, labor unions, special interest groups, yoga class, the fucking neighborhood watch? Dinner table gossip and conspiracy theories? How about old age, menopause, saggy tits, and rocking chairs on the porch? Or better yet, leukemia, dementia, emphysema, adult Depends, feeding tubes, oxygen tanks, false teeth, cirrhosis, kidney failure, heart disease, osteoporosis, and dying days spent having your ass wiped by STNAs in a stuffy nursing home reeking of death and disinfectant? Is that the kind of normalcy you lust for so much? All of that—is that worth the title of regular human being? Is it, Helen? Is it?

It should be on leading my new team to a victory. Instead, I see my ex, Dakota, bare ass up, face down on our bed as my best friend Troy railed her from behind. While our baby sat in a dirty diaper and cried in the other room. Mentirosos. Liars. Both of them. I’ll admit I wasn’t excited to have a kid. Not at first. But despite my party reputation in high school, I would never let my responsibilities slide. Unlike my father, who eventually left us, I promised myself I’d be there for Dakota. She and I were a hookup after I’d seen my parents get into another screaming match on my mom’s front porch, one that almost made me come to blows with my father. I was pissed off at the world, drank too much, and banged the bombshell blonde at the party who straddled my lap and told me it was my lucky night. There was nothing lucky about that night. I rub the ache in my chest. No, it feels wrong to think that. I got Asher, and he’ll always be the highlight of my life even though his mother has made my life hell. I changed everything for her.

IV. Real techies don’t worry about forced eugenics. I learned this from a real techie in the cafeteria of a software company. The project team is having lunch and discussing how long it would take to wipe out a disease inherited recessively on the X chromosome. First come calculations of inheritance probabilities. Given a population of a given size, one of the engineers arrives at a wipe-out date. Immediately another suggests that the date could be moved forward by various manipulations of the inheritance patterns. For example, he says, there could be an education campaign. The six team members then fall over one another with further suggestions. They start with rewards to discourage carriers from breeding. Immediately they move to fines for those who reproduce the disease. Then they go for what they call “more effective” measures: Jail for breeding. Induced abortion. Forced sterilization. Now they’re hot. The calculations are flying. Years and years fall from the final doom-date of the disease. Finally, they get to the ultimate solution. “It’s straightforward,” someone says. “Just kill every carrier.” Everyone responds to this last suggestion with great enthusiasm. One generation and—bang—the disease is gone. Quietly, I say, “You know, that’s what the Nazis did.” They all look at me in disgust. It’s the look boys give a girl who has interrupted a burping contest. One says, “This is something my wife would say.” When he says “wife,” there is no love, warmth, or goodness in it. In this engineer’s mouth, “wife” means wet diapers and dirty dishes. It means someone angry with you for losing track of time and missing dinner. Someone sentimental. In his mind (for the moment), “wife” signifies all programming-party-pooping, illogical things in the universe. Still, I persist. “It started as just an idea for the Nazis, too, you know.” The engineer makes a reply that sounds like a retch. “This is how I know you’re not a real techie,” he says.

When we came back to the sun deck, the party talk had swung around to the bones found at the end of the street. Carey was saying the police had been to ask her if there was anything she remembered that might help to identify the bones as her husband’s. “I told them,” she was saying, “that that rascal had run off and left me, not been killed. For weeks after he didn’t come back, I thought he might walk back through that door with those diapers. You know,” she told Aubrey parenthetically, “he left to get diapers for the baby and never came back.” Aubrey nodded, perhaps to indicate understanding or perhaps because he’d already heard this bit of Lawrenceton folklore.

The discomfort you’re sensing all around you? It’s the American Establishment loading its Depends diapers over the prospect of a younger generation that is turning its back on political parties and other zombified artifacts of our glorious past. Millennials (defined by Pew as Americans ages 18 to 33) are drifting away from traditional institutions—political, religious, and cultural,” muses Charles M. Blow, who sees “a generation in which institutions are subordinate to the individual.” It’s easy to understand why folks at The New York Times and, say, Democratic and Republican headquarters, and the National Council of Churches are worried about all of this. After all, it’s their “traditional institutions” that are being left behind like Mayan ruins. But who can blame Millennials for, say, vacating worn-out, pre-Civil War political brands such as the Democrats and Republicans, two groups that are about as relevant as your father’s Oldsmobile?

Do I need to tell Delta I have an infant? As parents, +1||855||550||0903 (US) we have so many things running through our heads before a flight—diapers, +1||855||550||0903 (US) bottles, +1||855||550||0903 (US) pacifiers, +1||855||550||0903 (US) and the list goes on +1||855||550||0903 (US). But one of the most critical steps, +1||855||550||0903 (US) and one that often causes confusion, +1||855||550||0903 (US) is making sure the airline knows about the newest member of your travel party +1||855||550||0903 (US). When flying Delta Air Lines, +1||855||550||0903 (US) the answer to "Do I need to tell them I have an infant?" is a definitive Yes, +1||855||550||0903 (US) and understanding why is key to a smooth airport experience +1||855||550||0903 (US). This isn't just about customer service; it’s about safety regulations, +1||855||550||0903 (US) proper ticketing, +1||855||550||0903 (US) and ensuring your trip goes off without a hitch +1||855||550||0903 (US). The Mandate: Safety and Regulation +1||855||550||0903 (US) The primary reason Delta, +1||855||550||0903 (US) like all carriers, +1||855||550||0903 (US) requires notification is compliance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and international safety standards +1||855||550||0903 (US). Every single person on the aircraft, +1||855||550||0903 (US) regardless of age or whether they occupy a seat, +1||855||550||0903 (US) must be accounted for +1||855||550||0903 (US). This count is essential for calculating the aircraft’s weight and balance, +1||855||550||0903 (US) a fundamental aspect of flight safety +1||855||550||0903 (US). Furthermore, +1||855||550||0903 (US) the crew needs to know how many infants are on board to ensure sufficient oxygen masks, +1||855||550||0903 (US) life vests, +1||855||550||0903 (US) and other emergency equipment are readily available +1||855||550||0903 (US). Simply holding your child without informing the airline means they haven't been factored into these critical safety checks +1||855||550||0903 (US). For safety reasons, +1||855||550||0903 (US) only one lap-held infant is allowed per row of seats that has an extra oxygen mask +1||855||550||0903 (US). If you are looking to formally register your infant on a flight you’ve already booked, +1||855||550||0903 (US) calling +1||855||550||0903 (US) can help ensure this step is completed correctly +1||855||550||0903 (US). The Fine Print: Ticketing and Documentation +1||855||550||0903 (US) Even if your child is under two years old and is flying free as an "Infant-in-Arms" (lap child) on a domestic Delta flight, +1||855||550||0903 (US) they must still be issued a formal boarding verification (often called a "zero-value ticket" or "Infant-in-Arms" boarding pass) at check-in +1||855||550||0903 (US). This document officially links them to your reservation and proves their age +1||855||550||0903 (US). The notification becomes even more critical for international flights +1||855||550||0903 (US). Delta will charge approximately 10% of the adult fare plus applicable taxes and fees for an international lap infant +1||855||550||0903 (US). This requires the issuance of a paid ticket, +1||855||550||0903 (US) and you will almost certainly be required to call Delta’s reservations department to handle the payment and issuance, +1||855||550||0903 (US) as the website often cannot process this complex transaction automatically +1||855||550||0903 (US). If you try to check in at the airport without having paid this fee and having the infant's ticket issued, +1||855||550||0903 (US) you risk significant delays or even being denied boarding until the issue is resolved +1||855||550||0903 (US). Furthermore, +1||855||550||0903 (US) if your child turns two years old at any point during your journey, +1||855||550||0903 (US)
