Original Title: TIL about "Michelin Tire Baby Syndrome", a condition occurring in babies that is characterized by multiple, symmetric, circular skin creases, or bands, on the forearms, lower legs, and often the neck that are present at birth.
When symmetric skin creases occur in isolation, it is important to reassure the parents of the benign nature of this syndrome and that the creases will resolve over time
It's fine
I don't believe you, those babies need to be ironed!

I read that as Michael Bay syndrome at first and thought “how terrible!”. Michelin Baby makes more sense.
"Doctor, anywhere I take my baby, things keep exploding violently. Like in a way that seems excessive and dramatic. What do I do?"
"Oh dear. Well it seems your baby has Michael Bay Syndrome. I wouldn't expect the explosions to stop any time soon but it's not life threatening. Other symptoms usually include misogyny and negative reviews on Rotton Tomatoes."
Это когда ребенок хорошо ест
