If Babies Aren't Really Your Thing, You'll Love These 15 Funny Tweets
We get it, in theory. Babies are tiny, unbridled quasi-people. They bounce around and squeak and are cute to look at for a few seconds, but as soon as you hold them the wrong way, or they’re hungry, or god knows what’s wrong with it (you know, since they can’t verbally tell you), it’s hard to see past the fact that they’re no more than saggy sacks of skin whose very survival is as fragile as their mushy skulls.
It’s an unpopular opinion, but some of us are just anti-baby people (not counting baby animals). If you’re one of these people, these 15 hilarious tweets will speak to you.

Wife: I don't mean swap it for a new one
Me: ...

Babies are okay if you're into alarm clocks that poop.

13. Aparently that's considered gross negligence.
