Date: 2005-03-23 01:10 am (UTC)When I was young, I was forced to babysit.
Date: 2005-03-23 01:50 am (UTC)Oh, the horrors! There were these two nasty little larvae that I called Homlio and Ugliette. They were the most repulsive children on the planet. They looked like Gahan Wilson had drawn them (ask nin_man if you don't know who that artist is--he contributed to "Playboy" a lot). Not only were they wretched looking, they also had none of the limited charm that some children possess toward the susceptible. Between those two and the Krathwohl brats, I was immunized against wanting to spawn myself. Yuckola!
