Have you ever had a close encounter with an ugly baby, or even, been asked to love one?

This is my rather poor attempt at an Andy Grasshopper-type thread.

I was pulled from the womb with special pliers that made my head a bit stretchy for a while, but I flattened out.

.....unfortunately, my face never flattened out

Take heart, your face is awesome!

A really handsome ex-boyfriend of mine used to tell me that he was an ugly baby and I always used to laugh, until his mother showed me a picture of him at six months old and I saw that he really had been quite hideous. His mother said she was so embarrassed to take him out in the pram when he was a kid that she used to cover his face with a blanket, which I thought was a bit mean.

Adam, you're doing well, but it should be: "Have you ever dropped a baby out of sheer ugliness?"

You don't know how much that means to me.

The other day I was around hundreds of the most ugly people ever; it seemed to me that all the babies were adorable and some of them only became ugly after age 2 or 3.

They were all going round with baby photos attached to their lapels or you just hung around this place a very long time?

does anybody really say "your face is awesome?"

Yeah, but more in the 'terrifying' sense than as a compliment.

I just said it, so they do now!

I have been known to say "hey, nice nose" to total strangers.
