All it takes to make me happy is a little word formation. Got my fix yesterday in this:
unbaby.me. It's very simple: zero-derive the noun 'baby' to a verb and then add
un-. Yet, is the meaning predictable? Only if we give the verb 'baby' a new sense (kind of like the sense of 'beer' in "Beer me"). With
un-, it's just reversative of that new sense, if you know what the app does. Hint: go to the website and just run your mouse over the pictures of the adorable little babies.

I'm still not convinced I'm certain what "unbaby me" would mean. There seem to be two reasonable interpretations consistent with the site: (1) transform "me" (= the photo in question) into something which is not a baby or (2) take baby (photos) away from "me" (=my feed, or "me" as the user).
