People in Japan are squishing their babies' faces to look like rice balls

Z-1
We've been squeezing babies' cute faces since the beginning of time. But now, we're not just talking about pinching cheeks.
#RiceBallBabies, which has become a hugely popular meme in Japan, is inspiring people to squish their babies' faces into a shape that resembles a rice ball — by placing their thumbs under a baby's chin and framing their cheeks. Except, of course, these babies are way cuter than regular rice balls that you eat.

Lazy People Turn Cute in Sloth Flipover T-Shirt

Lazy People Turn Cute in Sloth Flipover T-ShirtSloth-t-shirt-

Product name: Sloth Flipover Shirt
Price: $18.99
Who would like this?: T-shirt collectors, sloth fanatics, lazy fashionistas, Kristen Bell
Don't try stuffing a sloth in a stocking by the fireplace this year. Instead, choose a gift just as adorable, but that won't crawl up your Christmas tree and poop on your gifts.
The Sloth Flipover T-Shirt combines the charm of the cute creature with the comfort of cotton. (And doesn't require figuring out how to put a big red bow on a wild animal.) The front of the shirt reads "Ask Me Why I'm Lazy" — a perfect conversation starter — and flips up to cover your head in a sloth face. Seriously, if you've never kicked off chitchat by lifting your shirt to reveal the Internet's favorite slow-moving tree mammal, you don't know how to correctly make friends.
The shirt style has gained popularity on Reddit and Imgur, landing on the front page of the social sites after the holiday season when recipients share their gift goodies for upvotes. This shirt is Internet-approved, which means you won't have to worry about looking like an out-of-touch dweeb — don't even think about wrapping up another pair of white tube socks.
Flipover, or flip up, t-shirts will delight the person in your life that likes to send messages with their clothes. You know, the lady or lad with stacks of shirts covered in sassy cats, puns and retina-burning patterns. They may have a slew of cotton tops, but the interactive element adds a playful twist. Why try for a Mr. Suave GQ or Ms. Fancy Pants look when you can make people smile with just a flick of your top?
If you want to add an additional element of unexpected fun, stick some googly eyes on the t-shirt sloth. Instant Muppet.

The tee is available on Crazy Dog T-Shirts for less than 20 bucks. But if sloths don't crank up your cute meter — wait, let's try to convince you otherwise.

Ok, so if you still can't find it in your cold heart to love a sloth, the site also sells flipover t-shirts with other, less cuddly characters.
Furry faced, but less prone to climbing trees, consider the Abraham Lincoln version. The playful POTUS tee is perfect for the honest historian with a sense of humor. Add a stovepipe hat and sack of pennies for a complete gift set.
Still not convinced that you need to buy a shirt that flips over your face? Consider a style with a scary twist. The Angry Bear gives your head a fierce hug — and may scare small children and salmon.
Crazy Dog T-Shirts also sells flip tees with a unicorn, T-Rex and Admiral Ackbar.
But, really, how can you resist a sloth?
