Does a FPP begin when you click "submit" or does it only begin once there are comments? Either way, can we abort this?

"Bio: I die 3,700 times a day"
This could explain why twitter's servers are so frequently overloaded...

This sucks. The first thing it made me think of was the nauseating day-by-day "diary" of an unborn child I've seen floating around on the internet.
Don't people realize stuff like this just drives others to think of more dead baby jokes?

When I first looked, the account was following 10, and being followed by 2. Only a few minutes later, it's 8 and 2. I guess a couple people didn't like being creeped out all the time. I (think) I understand they're trying to make a point, but this is a really, really lame way to do it.

That guy who made the terrifying fetus song diary was way more effective. And creepy.

I think this may be the first time someone's linked to a twitter feed.
I think that means twitter has officially jumped the shark.

Maybe because someone shoved a laptop in its mother's womb so he could Twitter.

he=it
also, that was answering Greg Nog.
Although it could work as a reason why Twitter jumped the shark as well.

Seriously? Is it that difficult, or that much of an inconvenience, to forego the unborn baby twitter feeds, knowing that many of us out there have been unborn babies?

As an aside, why the hell is it a "womb" when a woman is pregnant and a "uterus" at all other times? Did I miss the memo that we need to use euphemisms for reproductive body parts when children are concerned?
If so, what does the vagina become? The "baby egress"?
And let's not even bring PT Barnum into this. Oy.

Oh, and this morning I taught my 3-year-old daughter the word "uterus", because she said her dance teacher had a baby in her belly, and I thought she might as well learn the correct word.
I now look forward to the day that I get a phone call from the parents of some kid my daughter goes to school with, because my daughter taught her kid that word.

In order for a fetus to be an unborn child, it has to be born, at which point it *was* an unborn child. Zygotes and fetuses which are not born are not unborn children, they are unaborted abortions. "Unborn Child" is never a current state, only a previous state. Just like an acorn is never an "Ungrown Oak Tree" until it has grown into an oak tree.
Get with the program, people.

Is this a abortion thing, or a kid about to inherit the BushCo debt?
And never you mind what the people who created it thought it meant. It's all about what my grease monkey scripts think it means.

What's the difference between a truck full of bowling balls and a truck full of dead babies?
You can't unload a truck full of bowling balls with a pitchfork.
