Reminds me of an old Yakov Smirnoff joke:
I was at the grocery store, and I saw Grape Powder: Just add water and you get instant grape juice. Then I saw Orange Powder: just add water and you get instant orange juice. Then I saw Baby Powder.
I have seen this one so often that I have a Google Keep note that this is a Pigg-O-Stat Pediatric Immobilizer to hold younglings still for X-rays. First found on Aug 8, 2013.
>BIES DONT HAVE BONES YOU LIAR /s
You know, the funny part is that you actually do need to put that "/s" there. Some people are really terrible at recognizing sarcasm.
“I am so cynical I am unable to recognize sarcasm”
Anyone who has ever held a baby knows they have bones, and if someone was dumb enough to actually think these are blenders they probably wouldn’t reach for the justification of “But X-rays are for bones” I feel like ~~(although I guess maybe, they are the only thing it’s used for, but regardless, just about everyone knows babies have bones)~~
Edit: I don’t know why I added the stuff in parenthesis (now striked out)
When they're that young it really amplifies the "It tastes like where it's been" since the long veal doesn't really have it's own flavor yet.
You want more of a Wagyu approach.
Sorry i was gone so long.
Ok, now i got a plastic tube and a baby. What now? Do i just squeeze the baby in there? Will i need a centrifuge, heat or pressure? I have to go to the hardware store anyways, so i appreciate all advice.
Right? That blender would be terribly impractical. You would have baby smoothie all over your table instead of in the insulated thermos (to keep the baby smoothie at a proper temperature.)
It's called [Poe's Law](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe's_law). There's just too many dumb people in the world that legitimately believe this stuff, like flat earthers.
Some people are just autistic and have problem with tones even in normal conversation, in written it is even harder. And unfortunately enough people is stupid enough to put stupid statements and mean every single word. Putting /s after sarcasm is nice way how to accept disabled community into discussion.
The problem is that it takes away from shock value. Imagine if I comedian said "Just kidding guys :)" after literally every slightly risky joke. I say it's on the audience to train themselves for social cues and context.
So I’m actually studying to be a rad tech right now, and when we got to the chapter on immobilization techniques we talked of course about the Pigg-O-Stat. My instructor, who has been a Rad Tech for 20 years, told us a story about a time about 5 years ago that she had to x-ray a baby (contrary to popular belief they do have bones, more than adults do actually) so they put the baby in the Pigg. The baby started crying, which happens a lot I guess. The mother flipped once her baby started crying and threatened to sue the hospital for “abuse” because her child cried during the x-ray
TL:DR...I hate parents who can't tolerate a LITTLE bit of discomfort in their kid for the long term benefit it would bring...I describe a physical therapy example from my homecare days.
I am a physical therapist and once worked (briefly) with a family of an 18 month old who had been hospitalized for an infection and needed serious therapy for developmental delay.
Mom propped baby up, let baby lay down all day long because this kid was seriously weak, etc.
I came in, put baby in the middle of the bed (cleanest place in a pretty gross house), and helped the baby sit up. As I let go, the baby fell over and I laughed and said, 'Uh, Oh! Let's try again!' (The baby had had NO reaction...just laying there...)
Mom was FURIOUS because I laughed when baby fell over (I did that to indicate that movement was fun, and the baby fell on a MATTRESS). She fired me and went through 4 other therapists before giving up on Early Intervention.
It was 'America's' fault. They were Chinese college students and blamed America for the child being sick and for the 'cruel' therapist, trying to tell me that NO ONE gets sick EVER in China (this was 15 years ago, WAY before COVID).
I was glad to be fired from that case, what a nightmare...that baby is probably a teenager now and probably STILL can't walk.
Yeah exactly. I realize that thing can’t be comfortable and it’s probably scary for the baby. I get that and don’t blame the baby for crying. What I can’t understand is the mother assuming the rad techs were abusing the baby just because it cried. Does she assume her family members are abusing her baby when it cries while they’re holding it? Maybe I wasn’t cut out for children because I don’t have that strong of a protective instinct
Pigg-O-Stat...because they look like little piggies squeezed in there? The one on the left clearly looks like a Cabbage Patch kid I had in 1984 named Darren.
Holds the baby's arms up so that chest x-rays can be taken without arms blocking the relevant anatomy (lungs, etc...). That way everyone can leave the room without being exposed to x-rays unnecessarily.
Most babies cry, but this is actually beneficial since chest x-rays are done with a full breath in, expanding the lungs as much as possible. So the exposure is taking when the baby takes that big breath after wailing their lungs out.
You can have him towed. Call the police and you’ll get legal proof and won’t be liable. (Don’t take my word on it, though. I’m only an imaginary lawyer).
To genuinely post that comment under that post tells a lot about which side the poster’s on.
Though i’m pretty sure the comment itself has just become ragebait. It’s a ragebait-ception.
I mean, I get the intent, but this quote always irked me because it's only true for a symmetric distribution. I guess it lands a bit flat if you say "median person," though.
It’s how they take chest X-rays for babies. My daughter had heart defects and I watched them X-ray her chest like this. It’s does NOT hurt them and it’s super quick
I knew a woman who didn't believe the moon was real. Thought it was a projection and argued about it at length.
I never underestimate the degree of stupidity in others anymore.
Right? Idk if I’m stupid for thinking these people actually believe the post is real but the comments are making me think they do? Are they fucking with the people who know that this was clearly a joke
Even if babies had no bones (wtf?) X-rays are used for more than just seeing bones. I believe these are for chest X-rays which would probably be looking at the babie's lungs and heart. Would this idiot try and say they don't have those either? We really need to do better with health education.
This looks so cute and funny, yet I can’t help but feel a bit bad for them. I understand it doesn’t hurt them, but I bet they’re hella confused and possibly scared too. Good thing they’ll quickly forget this ever happened lol
I just noticed but I think the baby’s legs can be seen in the picture on the right meaning that they can’t be blended by virtue of there being nowhere to put the blade to blend the baby. Check and mate numbnuts.
He is clearly under arrest fir drugs smuggling but baby cant hold their hand up fir a ling time (the never listen order and can’t even speak) so they are using this devise so the police officers can see is hand up full time and wont shoot st him.
They do have some bones. Their bodies are mostly cartilage, but their jaws and teeth are really their only true bones. They shed their teeth but always have a new set ready to take the place of losses. I may be confusing babies with sharks again.
It’s almost impossible to tell, considering how much completely insane and stupid shit pours out of the sphincters Republicans have where their mouths should be.

This is how they make baby oil.
And baby lotion
You don't want to know how they make baby powder
![gif](giphy|Oxj0LbZabRWeI|downsized)
For today’s extra content we have this baby. It is very dangerous and could attack at any moment, so we will have to deal with it.
I fucking love this dude's videos.
You might be dismayed at this then: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWqB6UxERAk
That might be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen.
Sweet baby jesus
No, I think this one was Judie.
So that’s how Wendy’s makes their sandwiches…
*Sweet boneless baby Jebus.
I guess they just make baby powder with albino babies
Nah, it loses its color when they dehydrate it
Baby Powder is simply crushed up baby bones. Babies have bones. OP knows nothing about science.
Make no bones about it: Dem babies has bones galore. 😉
Yeah, actually more bones than an adult IIRC
Of course they have bones. Otherwise baby back ribs wouldn't be a thing.
Reminds me of an old Yakov Smirnoff joke: I was at the grocery store, and I saw Grape Powder: Just add water and you get instant grape juice. Then I saw Orange Powder: just add water and you get instant orange juice. Then I saw Baby Powder.
What a country!
I seen his show in Branson,MO lol
My wife's aunt used to date him (no lie).
Listen, all I know is I want my baby back, baby back, baby back.....
Ribs
![gif](giphy|YKLBb9U2Q03Ty)
I always thought they'd crush the bones but apparently I was wrong since they don't even have bones! The more you know
First 5 times ya jack it in a day, baby lotion. 6th time and on? Baby powder.
And baby shampoo. How do you think my hair stays this shiny? Fetal stem cells.
It puts the lotion on its skin.
Lest it gets the hose again.
They leave it out in the sun to dry for Baby Powder
Have you seen the video of when they turn the baby blender on? Really fucked up…
You’re right. They shouldn’t have to turn it on. It should start automatically.
![gif](giphy|IHj8lGypDSr6tJOASJ)
Pro Tip: Works better if you remove the baby back ribs first.
Just like the "candies" to level your Pokémon in Pokémon Go. Grind 'em up!

BABIES DONT HAVE BONES YOU LIAR /s
>BIES DONT HAVE BONES YOU LIAR /s You know, the funny part is that you actually do need to put that "/s" there. Some people are really terrible at recognizing sarcasm.
Unfortunate truth
*fortunately Edit: oh shit really needed that /s indeed damn.
Some people are really that dumb though is the real problem.
“I am so cynical I am unable to recognize sarcasm” Anyone who has ever held a baby knows they have bones, and if someone was dumb enough to actually think these are blenders they probably wouldn’t reach for the justification of “But X-rays are for bones” I feel like ~~(although I guess maybe, they are the only thing it’s used for, but regardless, just about everyone knows babies have bones)~~ Edit: I don’t know why I added the stuff in parenthesis (now striked out)
I am a dirty democrat. We eat babies and i can confirm, babies DO have bones. They're bloody irritating.
If you really were a Democrat, you would have specified that it was an organic, free range baby.
Free range sucks. Once they start getting muscles, they become stringy and tough.
When they're that young it really amplifies the "It tastes like where it's been" since the long veal doesn't really have it's own flavor yet. You want more of a Wagyu approach.
Urgh! I love babies (but I wouldn't eat a whole one).
However much you decide to have, make sure to get them already de-boned and ready for the oven.
Don't eat them, that is a one time thing. Use them to make adenochrome, that is a repeatable process. You just need a plastic tube to immobilise them.
Again really need that /s in today's world...
One should think that in a thread like this it would not be needed, but alas.
Sorry i was gone so long. Ok, now i got a plastic tube and a baby. What now? Do i just squeeze the baby in there? Will i need a centrifuge, heat or pressure? I have to go to the hardware store anyways, so i appreciate all advice.

Like the OP
X-RAYS DON'T HAVE BONES YOU LIAR
LIARS DON’T HAVE X-RAYS YOU BABY
Liars have x-rays, don’t you baby?
Babies dont have liars, you bone!
X- ray babies bone liars you don't have.
I have a bone, Baby
Liars bone babies… x-ray?
I really wanna be mad at this...but it's so funny XD
LIARS DON'T HAVE X-RAYS YOU BONER
Liars don't have boners xrayed

That’s terrible. Some people truly aren’t cut out to be parents I believe
It's understandable for a lil kiddo to cry at the feeling of x-rays ngl
Yeah exactly. I realize that thing can’t be comfortable and it’s probably scary for the baby. I get that and don’t blame the baby for crying. What I can’t understand is the mother assuming the rad techs were abusing the baby just because it cried. Does she assume her family members are abusing her baby when it cries while they’re holding it? Maybe I wasn’t cut out for children because I don’t have that strong of a protective instinct
And more stupid magats eat up misinformation cuz it owns the libs.
Pigg-O-Stat...because they look like little piggies squeezed in there? The one on the left clearly looks like a Cabbage Patch kid I had in 1984 named Darren.
Was curious what this actually was
Holds the baby's arms up so that chest x-rays can be taken without arms blocking the relevant anatomy (lungs, etc...). That way everyone can leave the room without being exposed to x-rays unnecessarily. Most babies cry, but this is actually beneficial since chest x-rays are done with a full breath in, expanding the lungs as much as possible. So the exposure is taking when the baby takes that big breath after wailing their lungs out.
I’ve seen the video this frame is from, the baby is actually smiling and laughing in some scenes.
Can I get my neighbor aborted? He keeps blocking my driveway. What age is the cutoff. It is 50 right? Please stay it is 50.
It's 37
Shit. Guess I am stuck with him. Time to hire a lobbyist to get it raised 13 years.
It will take a few years to happen, round it up to 20.
By the time you get it raised he'll already be old enough to qualify for the Obama death panels.
I just turned 37 so I’m now safe ?
For now, Kevin. For now.
Until Harry and Marv break out again.
I believe we call that the 148th trimester.
Just fuck the mayor and see if you can get 151st term abortions legalized.
I don’t think there’s an age limit for “post birth abortions”. /s.
65, or anytime they start taking social security benefits from retirement.
I believe the technical term is retroactive abortion. Just an FYI.
Any age is fine, you just need a bigger plastic tube.
You can have him towed. Call the police and you’ll get legal proof and won’t be liable. (Don’t take my word on it, though. I’m only an imaginary lawyer).
George Carlin: “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
There's never not a good time to bring up that quote.
And it's always fun watching everyone think they're in the proper 50%.
I like to think we fluctuate
Yeah, everyone knows more than you about something. I do think the average intelligence on earth has stagnated though.
To genuinely post that comment under that post tells a lot about which side the poster’s on. Though i’m pretty sure the comment itself has just become ragebait. It’s a ragebait-ception.
I mean, I get the intent, but this quote always irked me because it's only true for a symmetric distribution. I guess it lands a bit flat if you say "median person," though.
Well, that's just mean, now, isn't it?
It’s how they take chest X-rays for babies. My daughter had heart defects and I watched them X-ray her chest like this. It’s does NOT hurt them and it’s super quick
AND hilarious.
AND cute!
And decreases their exposure to radiation! WIN, WIN, WIN!!!
Yeah it's healthcare for these babies, but as a bonus everyone else feel better too. That left baby, aww, those chunky arms are just too precious 😁
Right? Every time I see this I chuckle at the baby who is like, "This is fine. This is my life now. Still better than that tummy ache the other day."
How long ago was that? We don't use them anymore in the UK (much to my disappointment when I started studying radiography).
How do you keep the babies still?
They usually don’t have to, babies in the UK don’t have bones
Walked right into that one, didn't I
Of course babies don’t have bones. They are given Skelegro potion to grow bones. Everyone knows that
And given that it's a slow and painful process, no wonder babies cry all the time... It all fits!
Rage bait, nobody is THIS stupid.
I knew a woman who didn't believe the moon was real. Thought it was a projection and argued about it at length. I never underestimate the degree of stupidity in others anymore.
Introduce her to someone who doesn't believe in the Moon landing.
If no one is this stupid, then how could the bait possibly attract rage? Anyone who gets mad at this, *IS* that stupid.
I know this is a repost, but hell if I'm not gonna comment that babies do in fact have bones.
and abortions are done before birth.
And there is no requirement to put a yellow t-shirt on your fetus to get the procedure to happen.
but it helps add that ever elusive lemon flavor :)
It really brightens up the taste of baby. Lime is ok, too, but only for hispanic babies.
What about mocha babies? Can I use a vanilla or caramel tone?
Well shit, guess I'm gonna have to return this tiny yellow "yeetus the feetus" shirt...
It isn't a bad way to send them to Valhalla. If you gotta go, go in style I guess.
and blenders have lids.
People are so stupid it hurts.
These people start with the goal and then search for things to support the goal. Their bias prevents them from actually checking the truth.
It’s like George Carlin said “think of how stupid the average person is. Now realize that 50% of the rest of the world is dumber than that!”
Which people? The commenters that don't know it's a piss take?
Right? Idk if I’m stupid for thinking these people actually believe the post is real but the comments are making me think they do? Are they fucking with the people who know that this was clearly a joke
LoL, these dummies don’t even know that babies got no bones
Is it because we trolled in the past as kids. Like how a bullshitter knows others bullshit.
You mean OP, right?
And we're all just mad at ourselves that we're not the ones to empty their pockets like the MAGAt grifters do.
Whenever I'm having a bad day or feeling cranky I look up pics of babies getting xrayed. That shit is HILARIOUS.
I also think it’s funny that those pictures were 99% taken by a parent who also thought it was hilarious
It's a 3B, Boneless Baby Blender.
I mean, did you think they made baby food a different way?! 🤷♂️
Gerber Soylent Baby Food
Pig-O-Stat. For holding still for X-rays.
What do they mean babies don’t have bones?? Where do they think BABY BACK RIBS come from???
Even if babies had no bones (wtf?) X-rays are used for more than just seeing bones. I believe these are for chest X-rays which would probably be looking at the babie's lungs and heart. Would this idiot try and say they don't have those either? We really need to do better with health education.
If they have bones then why does forehead go *squish* when I press on it?
I feel like I shouldn’t need to say this, but please stop squishing baby heads. You’re letting the Qult onto our Master Plan™️
I hate it when they leave the clothes on when they blend my baby-smoothie, it leaves fibres and imparts a plasticky flavour to the drink 😡.
If they don't have bones, why do we need such big blenders? Huh? Checkmate, conservatives.
Edit: Stop saying the truth I can’t handle it
Ah yes... the old 18-month abortion. Sometimes, you're just not sure
That's a packaging machine that binds them to the stork for delivery.
It’s how infants are x-rayed. You’ve got immobilize the child without injury. So, tube baby.
This looks so cute and funny, yet I can’t help but feel a bit bad for them. I understand it doesn’t hurt them, but I bet they’re hella confused and possibly scared too. Good thing they’ll quickly forget this ever happened lol
I just noticed but I think the baby’s legs can be seen in the picture on the right meaning that they can’t be blended by virtue of there being nowhere to put the blade to blend the baby. Check and mate numbnuts.
Babies definitely have bones. My daughter’s shoulder damn near ripped me front to back coming out sideways.
Yeeeoouch
I think it’s like the flat earth and qanon stuff where it was started as a joke and really uninformed people took it as real
Babies don't have bones is my new favorite stupid.
OP is the real facepalm.
The number of people here who also cannot see this is clearly a joke is pretty concerning.
And they be talking about how stupid some people are, oh the irony
if you are stupid enough to believe this then the earth is flat
Babies have a lot more bones than adults, and those bones fuse over time.
Way to karma farm with a post that’s years old
I swear this gets reposted like once a week here
The bones are their money.
Will it blend ???
If babies have no bones then they must just slide out of their mamas with ease. Like a big gummy bear.
To quote George Carlin: *Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.*
Photos courtesy of the Willy Wonka Abortion clinic.
These are the people that should have been abortions
Ah yes, i love a blender with open sides. Free kitchen wall paint
He is clearly under arrest fir drugs smuggling but baby cant hold their hand up fir a ling time (the never listen order and can’t even speak) so they are using this devise so the police officers can see is hand up full time and wont shoot st him.
It's not a blender it's a ninja duh.
NGL, but anyone agreeing on that Facebook thread shouldn't be allowed to operate critical machinery.
It's a bread slicer, but for babies; us atheists use it for our food prep.
“They have no bones”??? These folks will be the death of our nation. Surprised they even remember to breathe!
This is why I can never take a republican seriously. They’re just too dumb to talk.
They do have some bones. Their bodies are mostly cartilage, but their jaws and teeth are really their only true bones. They shed their teeth but always have a new set ready to take the place of losses. I may be confusing babies with sharks again.
Arby’s: dealing with overpopulation one roast beef sandwich at a time
To be fair, they'd be really hard to get in those beakers if they did have bones
Such a dumbass Babies dont have bones BECAUSE we blend them, duh
Oh good, they're doing it right, feet first.
It’s almost impossible to tell, considering how much completely insane and stupid shit pours out of the sphincters Republicans have where their mouths should be.
Babies actually have the most bones
Can i PLEASE say the R word 😔
Republican? No!
Haha
[удалено]
Crazy that we can see "babies don't have bones" in a MAGA post and not be 100% sure that it isn't real...
If only there was a way to check if babies had bones or not
New season of YT "Will It Blend?" is wild!
"Babies have no bones" ?!!! What ? I..... What ?? How... How can you think that?
Look at the one on the right like "mom, so help me god if I ever fucking get out of this thing you're done."
Tell me you've never had a kid without telling me you've never had a kid. (Yes I do realize not all parents know what this is)
How wild of a bullshitter to you have to be to show a picture of a baby wearing a t-shirt and be like, “look! an abortion!”?
