From Jezebel: "10 Reasons You Should Have Watched the Vice Presidential Debate Last Night"

6. Paul Ryan's adorable story of how his daughter's ultrasound looked like a little bean was totally stolen from Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love.

Paul Ryan loves 90's cool guy music like Rage Against the Machine and Nirvana, even though he's the sort of whining sell-out suck-up douchebag that would make Kurt Cobain want to throw himself down some stairs. So it's oddly fitting that Paul Ryan's tale of his pro-life views — he and his wife went in for an ultrasound and his daughter, at only 7 weeks' gestation, looked like an adorable little bean and they still call her Bean to this very day D'awwwwww — is almost an exact copy of the story that Kurt Cobain used to tell about seeing his daughter Francis' ultrasound.

I don't get how this proves that Ryan "stole" the nickname/anecdote from Cobain and Love. I'm going to guess that Cobain and Love were not the first people to nickname their kid Bean" based on what they saw in an ultrasound.

That sort of thing seems pretty common.
