You, uh...you do realize that lions do not have nearly as much personality as they do when they are animated and can talk, right?

I distinctly recall seeing a behind-the-scenes thing where animators went to a zoo to draw meerkats so clearly this guy doesn't know what the gently caress he's talking about. Just ignore the troll.

my mom collects animals because she's crazy and lonely which are not a good mix. her answer to depression is "ACQUIRE MORE ANIMALS OF VARYING SPECIES! :downs:"

over the years, she's had rats. gerbils. dogs. cats. a massive loving fish tank with one really big fish, left behind by her ex. also raised several inbred cats.

The friends my fiance and I have that I've shared some of their live off the land shares here are in the 'acquire animals!' mode. They used to be at the animal count of two ferrets, a chihuahua, an italian greyhound, and some jack russell mix which they had trouble with the upkeep on going from when my fiance and me took care of their place when they went off for their wedding and honeymoon. Trailer not only reeked of piss, but had that greasy feel residue of dried piss everywhere. The ferret cage was a nightmare, no wonder the ferrets loved it when we'd let them out for a run around. They were surprised that we went on a cleaning spree while they were gone. Since then, they got another ferret and the wife's gone on a had to get an english bulldog kick where she shelled out a lot to a breeder for and pampered to where she even used a babysling to carry the dog around, and most recently went pug crazy and got a pug from a breeder. We're dreading the next animal she gets a wild burr up the rear end about getting and are relieved that they've since stopped talking about adopting a baby from Mongolia.

This girl already has three dogs, two out of three of which are longhaired breeds living in an uncovered yard in the South Carolina heat (that they are constantly trying to escape) because she thinks deworming them or getting them pretty much any basic vet care is 'too expensive'- read, cuts into her being able to shop at Whole Foods instead of Kroger. She now has three dogs trailing worms out their butts and her solution is not 'get them dewormed', it's 'make them live in the yard'. She is constantly posting about wanting a new pet.
Stop adopting the things. :sigh:


Vet care's like regular medical care. If you let something stay untreated too long, it's going to be expensive to treat. But then I'm quicker to get my cats to the vet than I am to shuffle my rear end over to the doctor and didn't think a thing about when I had to scrape up $200 for a full allergen workup with meds for one of the cats who developed an allergy which killed my budget for the month with the rent paid. He's doing fine by the way, still sour about not being able to have any pork products.

I live in the UK so healthcare is free (and I'm disabled so my prescriptions are as well) and we are still quicker to get help for our cats than for ourselves. They didn't choose to live with us and they have no means of helping themselves, if you're going to have pets it's a fundamental responsibility to keep them in the best health you can.

Well, furries sure as Hell confused Bob Uecker and some of the Milwaukee Brewers back in 2007.
Brewers in Pittsburgh and ended up at the same hotel as a furry convention.

I assure you you don't need to give a crap about baseball to appreciate this.

Uecker's broadcasting partner posted:

At first it was kind of funny to see these people wandering around the downtown streets and filing into the hotel, but after the novelty wore off it just made everyone feel creepy. The "furries" seem harmless enough, but people who think they might be an animal trapped in a human body just are unnervingly odd, to say the least.

I can understand taking a selfie when you're all dressed up and looking your best, but if you're going to do it in the clothes you're wearing to the funeral, you are not actually obligated to mention you're going to a funeral.

I went to my girlfriend's grandmother's funeral a while ago and it was really weird to me because everyone wanted pics with the body, and just being a boyfriend, I thought I'd be out of the pics.

Now there's lots of pics out there of me smiling uncomfortably with my girlfriend's family in front of their dead grandma.

What I'm saying is people taking pics at funerals is weird as gently caress for me.

...why. I mean, just...why? I post on neither site but from what I know of them this feels like an internet culture literally declaring war on itself. More importantly, how, pray tell, do they intend on destroying 4chan? Drowning it in poor grammar? Pretty sure 4chan already has plenty of stupid and an infinite capacity for more.

I don't know. I mostly use my tumblr for RP posts to avoid clogging up threads when my characters are talking to each other.

...but to give you an idea of how insufferable most of tumblr usually is, they consider 'trashbag' (see above) to be the worst of all possible insults. If you called someone 'stupid' or a 'moron' or 'lame', you'd be run off the site for ABELIIIIIIIIISM.

The 'raid' mostly consists of spamming popular tags with gore/porn/whatever, photoshopping people's selfies, etc.

It's 4chan and Tumblr. There is no way it wouldn't be the most passive-aggressive "war" in history. Definitely funny though.
