Well, here's something you don't see every day: Metro Transit Police tweeted Thursday morning that a baby had been born on the platform at the L'Enfant Plaza Metro station. Within minutes, #metrobaby was trending as Washingtonians delivered (hehe) their best jokes about the occasion. See below for some examples—and leave yours in the comments. 

Baby will go down in history for being the first person to ever arrive ahead of schedule at a Metro stop.

Last tweet by @MetroTransitPD before #MetroBaby was about a robbery at Brookland. This is obviously way better news.

@saralang will she have to wait 22 minutes for the next train to take her to the hospital?

Stupid baby, probably doesn't even know to stand to the right.

"Excuse me, is that your baby?"

When informed of the birth, the L'Enfant Plaza stationmaster shrugged, said there's nothing he can do, went back to reading BBW magazine.

As an online editor, it would have been much better for traffic if the #MetroBaby's parents had boarded that train yesterday.

#MetroBaby named as #WMATA CEO. Plans roll out to charge increased fare for baby deliveries. Possible peak delivery time charge considered.

just in case you were thinking about trusting #WMATA to get you to a hospital on time. #MetroBaby
