I am vacationing in Florida and a few days ago this guy swam up the drain and into the bowl.

There's no reason why a snake could not do that.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 44 points 10 months ago

Yeah but it's Florida, not a civilized place.

Cute toilet freg though.

Happy cake day!

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Forget the racism and the bigotry and Ron DeSantis and the humidity and the palmetto bugs...

For this reason alone, I am never going back to Florida.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

My real question is "did the chemicals in the toilet water make that frog gay or not?

[–] Voran@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Squee hes adorable

[–] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

I have lived in Florida 90% of my life. I have never had a frog swim up the toilet pipe or even ever seen a frog in a toilet. How does that even happen?

If you are worried about late marriage you can easily avoid it by going straight to cats and a manfree lifestyle.

[–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 39 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Cool, but to make room for the cats I had to flush all my snakes down the toilet. Am I doing this right?

[–] Flummoxed@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh shit, flush the snakes?? Not the husband??

[–] Jerkface@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't see the contradiction.

[–] Flummoxed@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Lolololol, good point!!

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Worst thing for women's friendships is marriage. Stick with your fellow ladies. Live in a big house together and embrace the sorority lifestyle. Reject the Patriarchy, abandon legal monogamy, and embrace Amazonian thought.

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This sounds awesome. Can I become an honorary woman so I can get in on this? I come with a 100% little brother vibes guarantee.

[–] Shelena@feddit.nl 2 points 10 months ago

Yes, little brother vibes are good vibes. 👍

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 months ago

Please 🥺

New bottom surgery just dropped!

[–] zammy95@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Anyone have any tips on how to un-read a comment?

[–] celeste@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Come on I write way more unhinged shit >:3

[–] Flummoxed@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

This could save Americans millions in health care costs!!

[–] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 28 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What does 'late marriage' mean? Like getting married when you're older?

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 66 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Doing it at like 8pm. By the time it's over and you're done with the reception it's too late to hop a plane and go on a honeymoon.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

OMG yeah, what a nightmare. I hate getting married after 8pm. It's so inconvenient.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Why wouldn’t someone want to get married late? Like, they’re too old to have kids? If they wanted to kids wouldn’t they get married sooner? Or adopt any time? I think person is just talking about themselves.

[–] Norgur@fedia.io 23 points 10 months ago

Well, nickname checks out, I guess

[–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Kid on my street got bit on the ass while peeing in the woods and died. Valid fear.

[–] paddirn@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Guy, had a similar fear all growing up too, except that I was afraid it’d bite my butthole (no idea why there, but whatever), not sure how I ever got over it.

[–] tacosplease@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Let me know if you ever remember how

[–] lugal@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Don't call your future partner "it"

[–] MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Unless you want a cool nonbinary objectkin partner

[–] lugal@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Sure, to each their own

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

Spiders swarming out of the toilet and killing me has been in the back of my mind ever since I saw Arachnophobia as a kid.

[–] grasshopper_mouse@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] VaultBoyNewVegas@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I saw a horror movie as a kid where a guy was killed by something (snake, maybe) when sitting on the toilet. It made me very anxious when using a toilet for a long time. I think the movie was dreamcatcher based on the Stephen king book but I was only 6-7 when I saw that part so I could be completely wrong.

[–] seaweedsheep 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

You're remembering correctly. That's how the first character dies in Dreamcatcher. Stephen King was recovering from a car accident and was on oxy when he wrote the book if that helps explain anything.

[–] VaultBoyNewVegas@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Thanks. With being so young when I saw the scene I wasn't sure if I just imagined parts of it.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

"Car accident" is putting it mildly. He was walking down the road and a van slammed into him at full speed. He apparently went completely over the van and into a ditch. It's amazing he's still alive.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Only a hidden snake? What if they weren't hiding?

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That's just Ralph the Toilet Snake.

He guards the knife.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I have a toilet snake. You can buy those at any hardware store y'know.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

If the snake wasn't hiding and she saw it, then she was asking for it when she sat down.

[–] Flummoxed@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I blame Ghoulies especially because of the cover.

Honestly thought it was a Gremlins movie cover until now, but man if seeing that in the video store aisle didn't make me slam the lid on the toilet and run out and slam the bathroom door as fast as I could for several years...

[–] NauticalNoodle@lemmy.ml 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This movie scene had me double checking the toilet before sitting down for at least a decade.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

The rat in the toilet in Raymond Briggs' When the Wind Blows freaked me out for years afterward and I still occasionally get a little freaked out about it.

Bathrooms make me anxious enough in general as it is.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I'd rather the snake.

[–] ech@lemm.ee 3 points 10 months ago

Easy, just don't be holding the bad-luck teddy bear while your friends are scamming a magic bank out of some magic batteries.
