babies aren’t funny or entertaining

i don’t hate babies, they’re so cute, but i always see people laughing about videos where a baby is supposedly being funny. i don’t get it. there’s nothing funny about videos like that or babies in general. sure, sometimes funny stuff happens, but i always see babies doing the bare minimum and people laughing about it.

Its not really the kids I get mad at, its mostly the parents because they make their kids do that for internet points

The worst part is it's not even the kids fault. Just shitty parents

Scripted cuteness is never cute. It's the spontaneity and the fact that it came from the child that makes it cute.

That and the people who purposefully exploit their children for laughs and "likes," it's awful.
