    They are all Lil chunks of fat with a tongue for at least the first year before they grow faces.

    I called one of my nephews meatloaf for a long time because he kind of looked like a pink meatloaf as an infant

    One of the reasons I DO think babies are cute is that I can walk away when they start making noise, smelling bad, or being generally unpleasant. They’re cute because they’re not my problem!

    Why are joker memes always cringe? Like no matter what you write, I just get an instant cringe feeling.

    It’s crazy how morphed your image of your own child is because there are cute babies, and I thought my first born was one of them. But with a bit distance I can say for sure: he wasn’t. He’s very handsome now though :)

      Haha my coworker told me the same thing, that when her baby came out and she saw her for the first time she couldn’t believe how such a beautiful creature could exist, then a few days later she saw the picture and was like that’s what she actually looked like?

      An ugly misshapen freak of nature that should never have been bred by humanity? Might be a little excessive for a human baby.

    Babies are not for everyone. Contrary to popular belief. Just because we can make them doesn’t mean we should all have one.

    I dont think Ive ever even pretended to think they are, for me children, especially babies and toddlers, give me a pretty bad case of the uncanny valley effect and look eerie and cause discomfort, as well as anxiety since Im even less sure than usual what they’re going to do and dont want someone’s kid getting hurt because of something I failed to notice. I dont hold it against them or hate children for it, its not their fault after all, but I do try to avoid being around them where practical.
