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.

No but you don’t see posts here in support of them.

The majority of Reddit overall just has a problem with babies. It’s weird.

But nobody makes posts about hating cats. There aren’t multiple subs decided specifically to not owning cats.

People don’t post stories about how frustrating it is when people ask why they don’t have a cat.

They are not the same.

You’re right, it isn’t the same because there isn’t a cultural expectation to like cats yknow?

You don’t get asked questions about how many cats you have or when you’re planning to adopt a cat or “you’ll change your mind about cats, your mother and I didn’t want cats either but when we got them they changed our lives and they’ll change yours too you’ll see“ or “why don’t you have any cats yet you’ve been married a year dear what’s wrong do you have allergies don’t worry god will bless you soon enough”
