It's already reality, I can assure you.
When you 'grow up' you may find there is more to life than impractical cars, going out and living your life looking after number 1. As you get older priorities change, whether you like it or not and being the role model to a child is probably the most noble deeds anyone can do.
Biologically our only purpose in life is to pass on our DNA. Not everyone will or can have kids but the majority do and I bet nearly all of those agreeing with the OP and the OP himself, will likely at some stage have a child and count themselves very lucky.

Its a shame then that most adults having kids these days seem far from being noble. Also how much more growing up do I need as a 36 year old ?
Lets face it, every parent I've ever met thought that their child was georgeous looking despite them being ugly as sin, obviously some are lovely but definately not all.
One of my very good friends had a baby boy and it was a genuinely ugly child, but she used to say isnt he gorgeous but I didnt have the heart so say.

Gonna break your keyboard in two and use it as nunchuks too?
If your child is ugly then your child is ugly. No point having a hissy fit about it on the internet.

To be fair, you're no oil painting, and you have the same hair cut as a baby. And what do you offer to society? If my memory serves me correctly, you annoyed your local community with your motors making too much noise or similar and are moving for it.
Lots of people are throwing wild statements in this thread. I am in the middle. I am 22 and have no children. I am great with kids, although i am not sure if i could sacrafice my life to one yet, maybe one day though.

So only beautiful people deserve an opinion?
No, but calling someone something you also are, as an insult, doesn't really work, does it?

Not really... This thread is about ugly babies. Just because (as you claim) Penski is no oil painting, that doesn't necessarily mean he wasn't an adorable baby. Not entirely happy about defending Penski, but the point is your argument is flawed.
Edit: Not to mention the obvious "tongue-in-cheek" tone to what you originally quoted from him.

Ugly and proud. Never stopped me though...
Do you know many babies with a mohawk and a beard?
At a community level, I assist with tidying and development. At a wider level, I pay my taxes, contribute to several charities and do volunteer work as and when time allows. I certainly don't take anything back.
Your memory serves incorrectly.
Three NIMBY neighbours decided that my car was ugly and cajoled the rest of the resident's comittee into passing a rule banning anything declared SORN on the Estate. This effected two people; me and the guy with a mint classic VW camper who SORNS it during winter so it doesn't get (too) rusty. I was already making preparations to leave (moving somewhere cheaper and better located for commuting) and have frankly had enough of both the comittee and the management company for the estate who are frankly inept. A case in point; the access panel for my building stopped working on the Thursday before xmas. I reported it to them that morning. I also reported it to them that night...and so did everyone else in the building...
It still has not been fixed even after everyone has been calling twice a day since then.
So rather than continue to put up with a few snivelling pricks and the management company, I'm bettering my position.

Are you serious? What kind of people are these? How can they ban anything which is SORNed wtf?
Quite easily if the estate is private, which the existance of a management committee would suggest.
