At first I was going to say she looked angry because her gloves didn't match, then I realised she was just co-ordinating them with her bag and shoes.

It was a man named Woody or something being asked for time while he held a glass of something in his wristwatch hand. Seems like the original post to Reddit is deleted now as well. Weird.

Sadly it's p obvious how they rigged it-- the dog spooks the hare and it freezes up.

That's such a dumb parable. Slow and steady only wins the race if your opponent is really stupid. Fast and steady, or even regular speed and steady, will beat the poo poo out of slow and steady every time.

Slow doesn't mean intentionally doing things slower than "regular speed and steady", the point is laying the proper foundation and planning things out will appear slow. The parable is saying you should plan long term, do things that are sustainable. Don't try to lose weight by fasting, etc. It's the long game that counts.

No that's completely wrong. The tortoise doesn't do any planning at all, he just runs the race. And the hare didn't lose because of lack of planning, he loses because he literally stops halfway and takes a nap.

I may be lost in a maze of irony at this point, but what actually happens in a parable w/r/t the animals and what the point being made is are different things. :)

With proper nutrition, sunlight and humidity.

The race was to determine who would run and warn the other animals in the event of a fire.
Turtle won. Along came a forest fire. EVERYONE loving DIED

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

The tortoise has rocket boosters in his shell anyway, if looney tunes is to be believed.

I know turtles don't as the subsonic vibration would travel up the elephants' legs and torsos and cause the Disc to literally disintegrate. Even a stable magical field can't compensate for that much chelotectonic activity.

Of the three possible destinations on the bus schedule on the wall, Portland seems to be the most wet, and she kept her umbrella out, so I'm going with that one.
