Making Sense of Making Babies

Friends,

Overheard at my job today, a conversation between two people, coworkers mind you...my economic coequal or maybe superiors as they have been relaying for quite some time, one who had apparently knocked up his girlfriend and another a female friend. They are probably younger than me, but not this young, maybe 25, 26? Old enough to know better, surely. Behold, their genius:


Guy Employee: So, like, I always thought that the umbilical cord on babies went from the mom's belly button to the baby's belly button. You know, makes sense. Belly button to belly button, you know.

Girl Employee: Yeah!

Guy Employee: Yeah, it doesn't. Apparently, babies live in this, like, liquid filled sack, so I guess they like drink that.

Girl Employee: Oh, so where is it attached to? Like, the spine? I think it's the spine.

Guy Employee: I don't know

Guy Employee & Girl Employee (Together): (laughs heartily)


Yes, and it's the teachers' fault kids are stupid.

I know it's dumb, but I think this

is sort of sweet.

But then I have a soft spot for dumb-but-sweet.

Who, wait a minute. Babies come from inside the girl? Crap. I learn something new every day.

It is sort of sweet, I get that, but what got me more was the "liquid filled sack." And he didn't know babies came in such a device...as if they were somehow holding onto the ribs.

They were obviously taught by their parents who believed that they wouldn't get pregnat if they jumped up and down after having sex. Wow what a couple of idiots.
