Profile Pics: Baby Fake-Outs

That's just a picture of you and a baby as your Facebook profile. Oh, I get it. You didn't get knocked up. Whew! But if you did, that's great! Just be clear.

Girls love to set their profile pic to a photo of them holding a baby. Why? Because for a second, everyone thinks it is their baby, freaks out, and then looks at their profile.

And it works. I find myself searching and searching through girl's profiles for wasted minutes of my day. "Okay, this pic was taken four months ago, and they were not pregnant then so... Oh look, their sister is pregnant. It must be hers." Then I click on the sisters page and look at all the pics of her baby. Usually, her profile pic is just a picture of the baby. Acceptable, but still absurd.

Should it be an international Facebook rule that you can only put a baby in your profile pic if the baby came out of you or your girlfriend/wife/adoption agency/surrogate mother? Maybe? But then it's always fun to figure out if someone had a baby or not, ya know? What else are you doing with your afternoon?

Despite the absurdity, I still find it really tempting to post pictures of myself with babies. They're just so cute. Other people need to see how cute this baby is. I can't help that I'm in the photo, right?

Girls are absurd.
