Things The Squirrelmanbaby Said

How the term 'Manbaby' came about

Hilary (https://dayre.me/tieponytail) coined this term to describe her husband Andrew, and her father, who are apparently manbabies based on their antics that she describes on Dayre. 

I decided to call Jackson a manbaby too since he whines (a lot) and likes being sayanged (stroked on the back of his head), but thankfully he doesn't have as serious of a manbaby case as Andrew.

Then I realised he looks very much like a squirrel when he smiles with his puffy cheeks. 

Case in point: (yes you look cute with squirrel cheeks okay)


So I joined the 3 words together, and voila! 

The 4 cases of whining so far... 

1. Veh long never eat with you edi...

Context: we were walking back to our hall rooms when he said this after we finished eating dinner in the dining hall.

2. Weh hard not to fwown leh... pain

Context: I was plucking his eyebrows. I told him not to frown as it made it difficult to pluck. 

3. Why the apple so hard wan? Is it meeee? Or is it the apple? 

Context: He gave me 3 'free passes/vouchers' to use for my birthday. I used one to get him to eat fruits regularly. So he buys fruit cups as he's too lazy to eat apples, or buy and keep fruits in his room. So he was complaining about the apple slices in his fruit cup. 

It's you, squirrelman.


4. Wut? I don't wanna look like a liddel boy outside. I wanna look like a manly man. So when I'm outside I will shift the hair to one side and then when I go home I will push it back and ask for sayang. 

Context: I commented how his fringe made him look like a young boy as it fell in a bangs style instead of a side bangs style. 

I"m sure there'll be more whiny manbaby moments to come
