I don't know what would be worse, 6 babies at once or a new one every 2 months.

New one every 2 months. That's definitely worse.
With each baby, there's the period of learning to sleep at night. It's better to get the "panda-eye month" over and done with all at once.
Really. You're going to be insomniac, and it doesn't really matter how many babies are crying at once. You'll be just as awake anyway.But having 6 wives sounds like a nice idea. They can rock the babies in shifts, so everybody gets more sleep time in total.

@acrow I don't know... A couple of my friends got triplets, and they really were that close from complete breakdown for a few months, because as soon you put one down the next starts crying etc. Of course when it started to get better for one, it got better for all of them, but it's not obvious that piling on everything at once would have been better than an hypothetical one-every-2-months.
(I guess it's kind of like removing a band aid in one go, or slowly... more pain but for shorter, or less pain but for longer?)
Though if you have one wife per baby, that's obviously different. You can just take one more wife to have fun with, and let the other take care of their babies... (the feminism thread is )

How many loads of alimony are we talking here?

Look at the bright side. By the time you got to wife #6, she wouldn't get anything!

I remember hearing from someone who had triplets that the problems don't end there. Developing language skills was slow, because they started out by copying each other's baby talk. It wasn't enough to simply "baby-proof" the house; they had to triplet-proof it against toddlers who were capable of climbing over each other to surmount ordinary obstacles such as baby gates, and so on.

In some way, this may illustrate that English has two different meanings for the word "why", which I like to think of as "what for" and "how come". The first "why" has to do with the reason for something, and the second with the circumstances that led up to it.
Illustrative examples using the question "why is the remote control in the freezer?"
"why = what for" "Keeping the batteries cold makes them last longer."
"why = how come" "I had it with me when I went to fix myself a snack and absent-mindedly left it in there when I put the ice cream back."Ed: Making excuses for the sorry state of the English language since 1979.

I think it's common in most if not all Indo-European languages.

From Facebook:
The Brexit Trade Talks sketch:
"UK: We don't like our deal
EU: Why not?
UK: We only get 95% of what we want
EU: It only gives us 95% too. That's how negotiating goes
UK: We want a new deal that gives us everything we can think of
EU: But you signed a deal
UK: Don't care, we hate you
EU: Bit rude
UK: We elected people to go to your meetings specifically to say we hate you
EU: And how is Nigel?
UK: Not happy?
EU: Why not?
UK: TV has dried up. So we want a new deal, and we want the deal in 3 weeks, or we cancel our existing deal
EU: Wait, what?
UK: You heard. Give us 100% of what we want in 3 weeks, or we break the law and walk away with 0% of what we want
EU: Er suits us!
UK: Wait, what?
EU: Perfect. Do it. Walk away. Take Nigel with you.
UK: No, hold on, wait: you have to negotiate, so Boris can win
EU: Why? Right now you have 95% of perfect, and we have 95% of perfect. If we renegotiate, you get more but we get less
UK: That's right
EU: But if we don't negotiate, we still have our 95%
UK: Woah, hold on
EU: And you have nothing
UK: But Dom didn't superpredict you'd say that!
EU: And if we don't have a deal, we don't have to put up with you **** on our lawn
UK: The Daily Mail made us do it and then ran away!
EU: I just found this spine. Is it yours?
UK: Welp!
EU: So we'll just sit this one out
UK: Fine, we'll go and make a great deal with the US
---
US: Yo suckers
UK: We are here to get a lovely big trade deal
US: Sure thing. Obey existing deals, and give us 100% of everything, plus 51% controlling share in the NHS, and you get, let's see, 60% of what you have now
UK: Not good enough, we have a Special Relationship
US: Bye
UK: What?
US: Bye. Talks are over, the Special Relationship is over, your country is over. Bye
UK: But we haven't got a deal, and we told everyone it would be easy!
US: It is easy: we are 26% of world trade, making deals with EU (20%) and China (17%). We don't need your 1.8%. No deal: easy
UK: But we really need a deal, the EU outsmarted us
US: We know. Some of us can read. Not Trump, obviously, but the rest of us. Try India
---
UK: Hi India, remember us?
India: Oh ****, these guys again
UK: We want a trade deal
India: And we want to vastly increase the number of Indians who can live in the UK
UK: We can't do that. Turns out we're, like, properly racist
India: That is brand new information!!
UK: So can we have a deal?
India: Sure, fine. Join the queue
UK: Who's in front of us in the queue?
India: EU, USA, China, Brazil, Korea, Canada, Australia basically everybody. We're kind of a big deal now.
UK: So you'll be ready to negotiate in, what: 3 weeks?
India: Ha ha ha ha ha
UK: What did we say?
India: 3 weeks? Try 3 years. This **** takes ages, bro
UK: But we had a timetable of 3 weeks with the EU
India: And how did that work out?
UK: Erm
India: Try Brazil
---
UK: Hi Brazil
Brazil: We ArE oN FiRe!!
UK: Maybe we can trade you some fire engines?
Brazil: We LiKe bEiNg oN FiRe, iT's OuR tHiNg NoW!!!
UK: Shall we try New Zealand?
Brazil: I aM So DrUnK!!
UK: Yeah, let's try New Zealand
---
UK: Hi, New Zealand
NZ: Hi, Crazy Uncle
UK: We'd like to sell you some lamb
NZ: Sorry, it's very noisy here, cos we still have a working economy. Did you say you want to sell us some lamb?
UK: Yes
NZ: Hold the line, gotta tell Australia this, they'll **** themselves
---
UK: Hi Australia, wanna trade stuff?
Aus: We wanna offload Rolf Harris and our worst ever PM. What can you give us for them?
UK: We've already got them
Aus: That was easy! So what can you trade?
UK: We can send you some racists
Aus: I think we're sorted. Try Russia
---
UK: Hi Russia, we have loads of lovely things we think you'd love to own
Russia: We already own them
UK: You don't own Boris
Russia: True. We rent him by the hour. £160k for a tennis match
UK: We really need a trade deal
Russia: We know. We made you need one. Try China
---
UK: Can we please have a trade deal?
China: And you are...?
UK: We're Great Britain
China: Great, you say?
UK: Well once
China: It's not ringing any bells. Do you have another name?
UK: United Kingdom
China: United, you say?
UK: Alright, smart arse
China: So you want a trade deal?
UK: Yes, but first we demand you obey international law
China: What happened to your deal with the EU?
UK: We broke international law
China: Have you been drinking moonshine with Brazil again?
UK: We're very tired.
China: Why did you leave the EU?
UK: We couldn't deal with foreigners telling us what to do
China: What do you want?
UK: A deal
China: With who?
UK: Foreigners
China: And why can't you get one?
UK: Cos we don't know what to do
China: Were you dropped as a child?
UK: We just want a trade deal worthy of our status
China: You've got one
UK: No we haven't
China: Yes you have
UK: Why won't anybody take us seriously?
China: Would you like to buy a mirror?
UK: Finally, a deal!
China: You had a deal worthy of your status, with the EU. You don't need to renegotiate deals: you need to reassess your status. You're not a mighty nation, you're a small, wet, heavily indebted island on the edge of a globally important trade bloc, which you just left, you tit
UK: So, what do you suggest?
China: Aw, mate. You already know
---
EU: Hi there! Here to rejoin?
UK: Yes, and on the same terms as before
EU: Oh, I don't think so. Say goodbye to your rebate, hello to the Euro, and bonjour to the Schengen area. Welcommen!
UK: We hate you!"

Dinosaur Comics said in http://qwantz.com/index.php?comic=1945 :
your opponent looks at you with pain in her eyes, trying to express - what? it's impossible to say. she places an "S", turning "HAT" into "HATS". 12 points. you suddenly understand what she was trying to communicate: "I know that I've hurt you before, and I know that I'll do it again. I'm so sorry." you look down at your handful of useless wooden letters, their forms suddenly blurry.
why would you invent a language with names for classes of things, but no names for individual things? frankly, why i exclusively use scrabble as a communication medium is beyond EVEN ME.
instruction sheets: for the weak?
