Description

It's true that when we see cute things, we immediately want to love and protect it. However, why do we feel that? The answer is- babies! To pass on our genes, we have children. The downside is that they're weak and helpless. So, adults evolved to produce dopamine, a chemical that makes you feel good, when looking at babies. Sure, that's why mothers care for their children (among other things, of course), but how are other things cute? When you compare an adult to a baby, the differences are clear. For one, infants have big heads, round cheeks, large foreheads, tiny chins, big eyes, and small noses. So, when things, such as cats, have some of these traits, we automatically find them adorable. I mean, just look at him. He's such a doofus. I wanna pinch his fuzzy cheeks. --- Most info from: https://www.brainson.org/shows/2016/12/06/what-makes-cute-things-cute The song is Verdis Quo by Daft Punk, but chopped up a whole bunch because you can't put long songs in Scratch =n=
