I blame the parents. That baby broke a table leg with his head, and his dad is like, “maybe he’s just a late bloomer.” No, dude, that’s an undiagnosed concussion inflicted on a soft skulled baby — that’s brain damage.
Those parents clearly never "bloomed" either. A baby shouldn't have been able to destroy a table leg unless it was completely rotted out. The bike tire must have been already bent. Falling off of it in the middle a field doesn't twist up the front wheel like that. It looks like the front wheel failed and the kid was ejected forward.
That poor kid grew up in a dangerous household with neglectful parents.
Plot Twist: The parents were killed in a car accident on the way home from the hospital with their new son. While he survived, miraculously uninjured, and was adopted out, the parents became ghosts, unseen, hovering over him for the rest of his life ... to reunite only at the end.

What are you going to do about it? Every baby gets those.

That's actually why the dad believes the baby is a late bloomer; It took him this long to get a concussion? He's practically a toddler now!

Yeah, I mean, I couldn't even crawl before I rolled off the bed and hit the floor with my head while my Mom was trying to change me.
I like turtles 🐢

Actually the kid is clearly superhuman and the parents failed to recognize it. No way a human baby could break a solid table leg.

Plasticity. Otherwise every one in the human race would be soft lobotomized before 3.

Can break tables with his soft infantile head
Cannot ride bike
Can do weed
Has a job
Rip, bozo. What a fucking idiot

How can a completely rotted out baby break a table leg?

Well most depictions of zombies do show them with superhuman strength.

when the core has nothing inside it, the abs flex inwards instead of doing what they're supposed to. that was a fun thing to learn.

Bloomer humor

It's like what happens when parents don't teach their kid and expect them to just know everything.
rizzothesmall@sh.itjust.works · 34 pts · 154d
A "late bloomer" can live a perfectly happy and fulfilling life if you just support and believe in them the same as you would a bright kid.

I think it's just a play on the word "bloom" as the flowers bloom after he's dead as opposed to being someone that "bloomed" in life
