Genetic immortality--this one, I've gotten a variation: "don't you want your genes to live on in a mini-Goo?" Um, no. Anyone who knows me probably THANKS me for not contaminating this world with more of my flaws. :)
It's weird how some people are sad and wistful we don't want children. "sigh...what a shame...you would make such a good mom...you treat your cats so well! you love piglet! how can you not want to have children?" cracks me up!
You know what's interesting is that people get all wistful and sunshine-y about babies (aka children) if they want you to have a baby but once you do cross over into breeder-landia - what I get most of the time is complaining/ commiserating/etc. Interesting....

I loooove new baby smell! But I've never gotten that comment before. "you guys would be good parents" and "labor is worth it" are the most common.

The only ones I haven't gotten (yet):

New baby smell...
You aren't a real adult...
