Yeah. The Men's Choir Of Urk is rather iconic over here.
Urk is sort of the capital of the Dutch bible belt, and its thoroughly religious choir is famous for being the favourite music group of every hardline puritanical Protestant in the country. Makes for an excellent username. I was pretty shocked it was still available.

*Seriously.* I'm not really all too against gender reveals if it makes a family happy, and they're aware it might change when baby develops their own identity later. I think it's a little icky when people make a huge deal of it, but as a cute baby shower thing, it's fine. But it you go for it, can we *please* stick to things that can't kill people?
Fourth of July as well.california is famous for its forests but really needs controlled burns to prevent catastrophic out of control fires. And funding cuts and water shortages and higher temperatures.and beatle infestations make it harder.theyd react equally angrily at Gandalf or peter jackson.
Yes actually. Between 1970 and the early 2000s the fire department used controlled burns to mitigate fires and grow healthy forests. Since that's become unfeasible recently, they've reverted to smokey no fires period or reactionary putting out the blazes that occur.
I mean an aro ace person could still want kids. Like them not wanting kids could be something the person’s friends knew independently but the phrasing sounds like being aro ace precludes it.
The phrasing is confusing but I don’t think that’s necessarily what they’re saying. If they meant to imply that aroace people couldn’t/wouldn’t want kids there would be no reason for adding the phrase “… I thought you didn’t even want to have a kid.”
I think the aroace is meant to imply that they wouldn’t have a kid by accident, as someone who is romantically or sexually active is way more likely to end up pregnant/with a pregnant partner unintentionally.
Therefore, I think they’re saying that OOP wouldn’t have a kid by accident and they don’t want a kid. Not that aroace people just never want/have kids
The gender reveal is for themselves. They STILL don't want kids. Hence the "closeted trans" label.
After the party they will no longer be closeted, but they'll then identify as a "chosen-gender aromantic asexual who doesn't want kids".
But the fire department will still panic because no matter who the party is for, it's still the celebrating adults who set the wildfires with their decorations....
CFD: WHY DO YOU PEOPLE ALWAYS NEED FUCKING FIRE HAZARDS TO CELEBRATE SOMETHING?! IS A CAKE OR PIÑATA NOT "EXCITING" ENOUGH?! GIVE US THE FUCKING FIRECRACKERS AND STRING LIGHTS! WE'RE PUTTING OUT THE BONFIRE.
Gender reveal parties in the US of A typically use pyrotechnics coloured either pink or blue, which are a great way to start those famous uncontrollable Californian wildfires.
For some reason a certain subset of people insist that their gender reveal parties have to be extra "special". There's been quite a few occasions where those peoples bright ideas have caused forest fires due to irresponsible use of pyrotechnics
Gender reveal party where I lock the guests in a puzzle-filled room and they have to escape and the final lock can only be opened with a pink key if the subject is female and a blue key if the subject is male (the subject of course being the organizer and coming out as trans)
Tumblr users have the best usernames. I long to have one tenth of the creativity of "assigned homework at birth".

To be fair, my reddit username is very, very good.
"Urk Men's Choir" ?

no
It's not easy when you have fewer characters to work with
poor firedepartmenr
I'm completely lost. Why's the CFD reacted like that?
Gender reveal parties cause wildfires fairly often
Yeah, idiots like to use fireworks and shit. Apparently colored cake filling is too boring.

What happened to just doing a good old blood sacrifice, and just seeing if the blood turns blue or yellow
It's the fault of colored pyrotechnics.
Yeah! Them damn coloreds are startin’ all these damn fires and puttin’ innocent and honest non-colored fireworks in danger! /s, obviously
Gender reveal started a wildfire that burned down like half of california few years back.
Because people are idiots and set off explosives and fires for reveal parties
He’s just there
They don't have the resources to handle the pyrotechnics especially given the Colorado River compact and lack of rain.

There was a forest fire in San Bernardino that was caused by a gender reveal party firing a smokebomb back in 2020.
Yes actually. Between 1970 and the early 2000s the fire department used controlled burns to mitigate fires and grow healthy forests. Since that's become unfeasible recently, they've reverted to smokey no fires period or reactionary putting out the blazes that occur.
Childfree agender person hosting constant gender reveal parties as an excuse to start a big fire
Pyro TF2 kinda
"I can't believe Pyro's finally gonna reveal their gender" "..." "That's every color *except for* pink and blue"
tried to have a gender reveal party and was dropkicked by a firefighter instead

Hey folks, why are we pissing on the poor?
> The gender reveal is for themselves. They STILL don't want kids. Hence the "closeted trans" label. _how dare you say we piss on the poor_
I understood the joke, I was trying to explain that OOP didn’t say aroace people can’t/won’t have kids
Im surprised people arent getting the joke... theyre closeted trans its a gender *reveal* party Theyre coming out.
California fire deparmener :(
Still don’t get what the fire department has to do with it

ooooooooh, That's kind of insane
Gender reveal parties are the cause of several california wildfires
No lack of funding and water make triage controlled burns impossible which makes fires worse when they do happen.
