We're expecting a baby, but it could be a miscarriage.

I think that's the origin. Don't get your hopes up.

It is, it's like "Knock on wood." Bad luck to say, "We will have a baby soon." Sometimes people forget most babies used to die.

"expecting a baby, But it could be twins" also works.

Thought it was a Bo Burnham joke at first. I dunno why. Haven't seen a Demetri Martin show/special in a while

Eventually you learn to cope with the reposts, and laugh again.

Velociraptors had feathers.

I prefer "we're expecting" to "we're pregnant"... no, no "we're" not, SHE's pregnant. Someone got the phrase confused in the 90's or something and everyone started saying it.

preg·nant/ˈpregnənt/ Adjective:
(of a woman or female animal) Having a child or young developing in the uterus. Having been in such a condition for a specified time: "she was six months pregnant".

id love to have a raptor as a son or daughter.

could you imagine the birthday parties.

[–]necromundus 0 points1 point ago

If it were a velociraptor, you could expect two of them.

Cause you know, they hunt in packs.

I'm more bothered about the "we". Unless you're both pregnant, of course.

Credit where it's due: This is a Tig Notaro joke. More or less.

[–]dingalingking 0 points1 point ago

I like this joke, not because its funny, but because it could be funny or offensive- depending on who reads it. I think it's safe to say that almost everybody who downvoted this has been affected, in one way or another, by a miscarriage.. or Demitri Martin

Who knows which comedian said this?

We're expecting a baby, but instead we're getting a REPOST!!

[–]Stormdancer 0 points1 point ago

Oh, it's going to be a baby. But it might be a baby Velociraptor.

And why doesn't my Spellchecker know that word? Well, it does now!

Anyone who says that they don't want a velociraptor baby is filthy liar.

Not like the one in you picture though. Velociraptors had feathers.

Who said this originally? I'm pretty sure I heard it on TV recently, but can't remember.

It sounds like something Demetri Martin would say. But I'm not sure he did.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

now that you mention it, it does sound like he would say that. exactly his style of content.

I know some people will probably say "REPOST!".
