suppose x is kittens and y is goats

Cuteness = (%similarDNA * stupidity * inabilitytosurvive * needsofcares) / (mass * height * strength * age^2)

What does that even mean?

>>7741532

I am so going to plagiarize this.

>>7741582
Turtles, obviously.
>>
>>7741532

How can people find inanimate objects cute then?
>>
>>7741633
Because they resemble animals.

For x=5 kittens, we either have 0-4.999... goats, OR 5 bunnies.

By this equation, snorlax is the antithesis of cute, but that fucker is absolutely adorable. A valiant effort, but I think it needs some work.
>>
>>7741761

if(snorlax){
cuteness = 1.7976931348623157E+308;
}else{
cuteness = (%similarDNA * stupidity * inabilitytosurvive * needsofcares) / (mass * height * strength * age^2);
}

This works for special adorability, but we really need a theory of general adorability.

yes, using an statistical model based on human opinion and shape.

Where is that girl from? What's so special about that face? I've never understood why it's so used

A stunningly beautiful future lesbian.
>>
>>7742055
just account for when the organism is moving near the speed of cute in a adorability field and there we go

also an adorability field is indistinguishable from nonzero 2nd cuteness derivative.

Why are baby animals (especially kittens) cuter than baby humans?

>no time machine
>no extant cloning device
>no age fixation technology

Goats are pretty cute but are also pretty smart and have good survival skills.

Please care to elaborate.

This guy knows what's up.
>>
>>7741532
But Santa is cute, despite the fact that he's 400 years old.
>>
>>7742844
That is due to a near-critical-pint combination of variables on the cuteness curve

Cuteness = (%similarDNA * %bodyfat * stupidity * inabilitytosurvive * needsofcares) / (mass * height * strength * age^2) + goatness

We're almost there
>>
>>7741505
scan the brain and find out which part is stimulated by different cute things, try to quantify it, scan dozens of people and statistically analyze the results to remove outliers and improve the accuracy of your findings

your findings might be accurate enough to gauge cuteness to a reasonable degree and differentiate between people's reaction to different pictures
>>
>>7741532
Doesnt explain why babies vary in cuteness from "aw, its da cutest XD" to "oh, thats your baby?"
>>
>>7742803
Baby humans usually have no fur

You can.

The more soft and bubbly it is, the more cute it is.
>>
>>7743981
You think we would have evolved to find baby humans cuter, but kittens are extremely cute, while baby humans are actually pretty fucking weird if you think about it
>>
>>7743893
ok well goatse.bz has a great deal of goatness and i would'nt exactly rank it cute.
