The term genius gets thrown around a lot, but...  We’re huge fans of Twitter here in the Her.ie offices, with one or two more prolific tweeters than others. However it isn’t just tweeting that we love, it’s the retweeting too. One account that has us favouriting and retweeting posts is the folk over at 'ReasonsMySonIsCrying'. Reasons My Son Is Crying uploads absolutely hilarious images of kids crying for absolutely no reason and compiled the very best into a book to share with the world. "It all started when busy father Greg Pembroke posted a few pictures online of his three-year-old son, mid-tantrum, alongside the reason his son was crying: He had broken his bit of cheese in half. This book collects together photos sent to Greg from parents around the world, documenting the many, completely logical reasons why small children cry". If you’re not already following this account we’d suggest you do so now. If you want to get your hands on a copy of the book, check out Amazon. Here are just a few of our favourites...
