    Not if you forget to attach the distributor cap they aren’t…

  2. MarkSr says:

    WHY?!?!
    All babies think about is, “Where’s that boob?” and, “I gotta poop!”

    • patmandu says:

      They don’t really think about the act of pooping, they just want to know what you’re going to do about the fallout.

  3. GigiAUT says:

    funny. i’m watching the matrix right now!

  4. Bucky says:

    At the Neo-natal ward

  5. PbFoot says:

    That poor kid is in a gamma knife. It’s for treating brain tumors with radiation.

  6. Caarl says:

    Does anybody remember the scene from back to the future, where doctor Brown tries to guess what marty wants at his door?

  7. Frax says:

    Awww… Borg babies are so cute!

  8. Rich says:

    Lo-cute-us of Borg.

  9. Alan says:

    Looks like a neo-natal setup to do a hearing exam.
    Hearing exams using electroencephalograms and computers have been around since the 1970′s. No conscious actions are needed by the patient.

    “Autozone, Mike speaking, how may I help you?”
    “Hi, Mike. I need to know what the spark gap setting is for an April 2010 model Caucasian.”

    • kaptain_gonzo says:

      Now that is funny!

      At least you were keeping with the spirt of the site.

      Oh, and can I get those wires in chrome?

  11. kurisu7885 says:

    Borg baby will assimilate your family.

  12. rastaferal says:

    resistance of the booby is futile….you will assimilate.

  13. ... says:

    wtf is going on in this photo?

  14. kelly says:

    This is disturbing, not cute. It looks like a baby in the hospital undergoing tests because it has some kind of seizure disorder, which, from the looks of it- it probably is.

    • spotter says:

      Or it might be tests to find out what babies dream of, how fast certain areas of brain develop, how newly learned things are processed etc. Of course it could also be something bad. But why “probably”? You probably have a negative attitude

      • Dodom says:

        1- They wouldn’t put babies through stressful testing without a good reason. Babies look fragile because they are.
        2- Sadly, neurological issues happen to babies a lot more often than funky science.

  15. Smitty says:

    Marty: Doc! I came here in a time machine that YOU built!
    Baby Doc Brown: Do you know what that means?! …It means THIS damned thing doesn’t work at all!

  16. Mike says:

    This is an infant in a near-infrared spectroscopy cap. The wires end in infrared lights, and the frame keeps them secured against the infants’ head. This apparatus is used to measure brain activity, probably during a passive auditory or visual experiment while the infant is asleep. The infrared light reflects off blood in the infant’s brain and is read by detectors nearby, giving the researchers a measure of blood-flow activity. It is not for a seizure disorder or for dreaming research. Very cool that this showed up on WTF!

  17. Chris says:

    I usually love this site. And I’m tolerant of a lot…however…that baby probably has something seriously wrong with her, she shouldn’t be made fun of and plastered all over the internet, As a new mom, I feel this picture has gone a bit far

    • Mike says:

      There’s nothing wrong with the baby, this is a tool to measure brain activity. It’s painless, noninvasive, and used for psychological research. No worries.

  18. tehreporter says:

    I’m pretty sure this guy teamed up with Brainiac to fight Superman

  19. tauceti says:

    Confirming the near-infrared spectroscopy comment. That’s what it looks like to me, too. The piece in front may be for eye-tracking.

    This looks like a particularly harsh set-up, though. Usually NIRS is portable enough that you can have the baby sitting on his/her mother’s lap while being scanned.

  20. Kelly Ann says:

    SERIOUSLY. STOP ASSUMING THAT IT’S SOMETHING BAD. MANY HAVE SAID IT’S A SENSORY EXAM. THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT AT ALL!

    • Steve says:

      The majority of us aren’t doctors. I have no idea if it’s a sensory exam, or a seizure treatment device. Many have said one or the other, but that doesn’t make them right, or help people without medical training. Can someone who knows exactly what this device is (Gamma knife, infrared sensory tester, or other), please post links to other pages with descriptions and showing other pictures.

    the littlest techmarine

    Back to the futu…. Oh sh!t, wrong direction, sry professor.
