Move Over Grumpy Cat: Babies Are the New Cats

May 30, 2013— -- Internet celebrity and cinematic ingénue Grumpy Cat (née Tardar Sauce) is taking her formidable talent of looking like a cat who is grumpy over to Hollywood. The Wall Street Journal describes Ms. Cat's agent thusly: "Mr. Lashes, 34 years old, is an agent for Internet cats."

While Mr. Lashes tells the paper that his goal is to "capitalize on the cat's fame without overexposing it," the very fact that a cat has an agent tasked with helping her navigate the terms of a movie deal with the company that gave us Jack and Jill, promote a book, and create a line of Grumpy Cat-themed beverages means that cats are already overexposed and, thus, over. Which is just fine, since cats are hellspawn created to ruin your toilet paper rolls and ruin your favorite purse and claw its way into the bathroom to watch you while you do your thing and still your roommate, who is super great otherwise, insists that her cat is perfectly normal.

So. Let's talk about babies instead. Babies are the new cats, particularly since they're both small things who can't articulate their thoughts and relieve themselves in various bags or boxes. Here some cool new viral babies who should be on your internet radar:

1. This Guy Pretending to Be a Baby

Funny because it's true/scary. Babies are hella nefarious, and this guy's reenactments of conversations he's had with his daughter really drive that home. Get this baby-impersonating man a book deal.

2. Baby at the Beginning of This Video

Both the dude, Roman Atwood, and the baby right at the beginning are super cute. Also: Good luck not yawning for the rest of your life after watching that. Also, also: This baby deserves a line of designer socks. Rob Kardashian can be creative director.

3. Baby Bachelor and Baby Struggling Actresses

This baby is looking for love. Will he find it? Find out in the finale. (No, he won't.) (But he would be a good spokesbaby for a line of energy drinks.)

4. BONUS: This Baby Who Is Gonna Be Eaten by a Cat, Who Is OVER

This cat either loves this baby or wants to consume this baby's soul. Which is it? You be the judge. But not before giving this baby its own line of glute-defining sneakers.
