Now everyone in Japan is posting the cutest images of their baby's face on social media.

The cute meme is now inspiring people to do the same, by placing your thumbs on your baby's chin and using your palm to squash your baby's face into the shape of the traditional triangular rice ball.

While some babies calmly sleep as their parents squash their face and photograph them to post their picture online, others look more disgruntled by the whole affair.
