Wife: Did you hear? Jody had a baby! Seven pounds, three ounces, twenty inches long.
Husband: Wait, why do I care how LONG the baby was?
Husband: Who decided which random measurements would represent this newborn to the world? "We've birthed an offspring. The circumference of its head is 35 centimeters."
Husband: "Its first bowel movement yielded 400 grams of excretum, having the viscosity of warm butter."
Wife: You can't do anything that anyone else does, can you.
Husband: "It's got a ding-dong, but we should probably hold off on THOSE measurements for a couple years or so."
