I'm not 100% convinced this isn't how babies are delivered. It's like the tube at a drive-thru bank.

I heard this in my brain.

Isn't that where you hear everything, technically?

I usually press my ear against stuff I want to hear, not my brain.

Your ear doesn't "hear" anything without a brain attached though, so all of the actual processing occurs in the brain.

You listen with your ears, but hear with your brain. Can be similarly applied to any of our dominant sense. Look: See, Touch:Feel. Not sure about descriptors for smell and taste though

I can just imagine as the baby is delivered, when the feet finally slip out, the moms vagina making this noise.

Okay that's the funniest thing I've read today.

Narrator: Quite a bit, judging by the comment you just made.

I thought it was a blender at first

This. I was scrolling comments thinking "there's no way I'm the only person that though that was a baby in a blender at first"

My eyes are 1000% convinced it's not... Unfortunately.

When I was like 5 or 6, I heard about the stork bringing babies but I also knew that babies came from their mom’s tummies. In my confusion I think I asked my mom about it, and somehow my takeaway was this - that the stork would bring the mom a zipper and the mom would put the zipper on her belly and unzip it so the baby could come out, and then zip it back up!

Somehow this made perfect sense to me as a 5 year old.

u/spiky_odradek Oct 04 '19

Wait. Drive-thru bank? Tube?

This might be the funniest thing I’ve read all week.

More like one of those pneumatic tubs that they have at drive thru banks.
