lump
n.— «There’s a cult out there that claims that some babies are just far more demanding than others. That randomly people get babies who refuse to sleep, refuse to go out in public, refuse to try new food, and refuse to ride in the car. These children spend their days and nights screaming their heads off unless they are getting 1 on 1 attention at all times. Mothers of these kids have organized blogs and support groups on the net, where they get together and comiserate. They even developed slang, where they refer to “normal” babies, as “lumps.” You know… they’re just a lump. You can carry them around anywhere.» —“Baby F.A.Q.” by Nathan Cherolis The Pan Galactic Blogger Blaster (Morgantown, W.V.) Oct. 12, 2004. (source: Double-Tongued Dictionary)
