Shit's all sorts of different now.

We are very 70's.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Well it's not an "official" list - their numbers are from Babycenter members, not census data. (Trendy or not, I seriously doubt there were more Aidens born in 2008 than Michaels, you know?)

Because books.

We are.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

OMG. Five-year-old with cooking show: [link] (two warnings: video autoplay, OVARIES!!1!)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I love the kid name in an xkcd comic... something something DROP TABLE STUDENTS;

Sure, but if you combine the Aidens with the Bradens and the Jadens and the Cadens....

Now tagless for your comfort.

I always look forward to SS's baby names list. I hope Olivia will drop in popularity because I went to school with six Lisas so I know how that feels.

There's a woman at the gym who spelled her daughter's name "Alyvia."

Because books.

When I was in school it was all Amys, Susans, and Karens.

I'm a little dubious about "Jayden" being the second most popular boy's name, actually.

I'm curious - is 'Tomas' used as a baby name for English speakers at all?

amych, I can't get the video on my phone but there's a kid on Noggin in Australia who does Cooking with Luis--which we love. Good recipes for preschoolers.
