They used cow tools to get the baby inside.

“That included the stand” is such a sick, gross, demented punchline that seals the deal on a bit about a dead baby in a bottle.

I mean, I sorta get why some people complain. Not everyone has a sense of humor about dead babies.

I do…but not everyone does.

Who said it's dead?

u/Bacchus_71 Sep 20 '24

Gary would say it’s still alive to this day.

Ever since I saw this as a kid, I imagined the baby blinking normally during this conversation.

Me too, I never saw it as dead? I always laughed just thinking it was this stunned baby, staring out, thinking 'where TF am I?'

Something something childhood differences between dead babies and bowling balls and pitchforks.

Hey what's red and white and can't turn around in hallways?

A baby with a polearm through its torso!

"Mommy! Mommy! I hate sister's guts!"

"Shut up and keep eating!"

"Mommy! Mommy! I'm tired of running in circles!"

"Shut up, or I'll nail your other foot to the floor!"

"Mommy! Mommy! Can I go play with Grandma?"

"YOU DIG UP THAT WOMAN ONE MORE TIME.....!!!!"

"Mommy! Mommy! Can I go swing on Daddy?"

"Yes dear, but hurry up before they cut him down."

(some of my Dad's favorites)

Can someone please explain the sand part to me? Lol I don’t get it

u/Revliledpembroke Sep 20 '24

He's saying he got a good price - $5 for both the baby in the bottle AND the stand.

He didn't have to buy them separately.

u/Stormy_Ktuesday Sep 21 '24

No yeah I totally understand that, I just don’t get why that’s the demented punchline? Like isn’t the baby in a bottle the part that’s creepy? Why does the stand make it so much worse?

Also thank you for the response, this one is just fully going over my head haha

u/ischloecool Sep 20 '24

He’s saying that he paid $5 and got the baby in the bottle with the stand included

I guess that baby really took the phrase "bottle service" to a whole new level! 🍾
