They're Like Tiny People

By Casey Jarman

Babies, man. Whoah. They're little people, man. Did you ever think about that? How, like, once you were a little baby—just kind of crying and, like, doing baby shit…and now you're here, dude! Your tiny baby skin got all stretched out and now you live in that skin, like, as an adult. Same skin, man—just bigger. That's the thing about that movie, Babies. It's like, you can't remember being a baby, right? But you totally were a baby. Do you ever wonder what those babies are thinking, man? Sometimes I think babies have got it all figured out.
