People want to smash Baby Yoda. Have you experienced "cute aggression"? If you have, how cute exactly was the thing that triggered it? https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2018/12/31/679832549/when-too-cute-is-too-much-the-brain-can-get-aggressive

I can’t say I have, no. It seems a bit fucked up to me - you find something so attractive that you want to kill it? Don’t get me wrong, I do find things cute; but I think they’re even cuter when they’re breathing.

I didn't know it had a name, but, yeah, I've experienced it when seeing cute animals like puppies and a part of my brain wanted to squeeze them.

My imaginary pet is almost always on a cute attack. Its self assigned ultra-cutest chicken award is causing some trouble all the day and comes with the burden of some punishment when it gets over the limit and aims at stealing sweets and being nasty and sassy.

Hmm, the cutest thing I've ever seen that elicited an emotional response from me was some baby clothes at Ross. I cried. But I don't feel like I felt this cute aggression?? Or maybe I did and I am just not understanding the feeling well

If anyone lays a finger on the baby I will .literally. rip their face off and eat it
