Man, I wish I’d thought of this.
Jacky Shu and Ben Snyder are definitely going to be cool parents. This Wes Anderson-style baby announcement had me cracking up and truly admiring their creativity.
I will say, however, that I’m glad there was no pressure to cleverly announce pregnancy when I got knocked up. This video sets a pretty high bar. When we found out we were having a baby, we basically just said, “Oh hey, so guess what? We’re having a baby. How crazy is that?!”
Most people said, “WHAT THE WHAT?!” so it was probably a pretty effective method after all.
So what do you think? Is “The Pretentious Presentation of the Uterine Inhabitant” too much or just the right amount of clever?

If you thought that was good—there’s plenty more where that came from. We put out a “Best Of” newsletter once a day. Sign up here.
it’s pretty terrible, really. ironic self-importance is still self-importance, and this is the sort of ridiculous pandering that happens when everybody has a global audience.
