Don’t worry, they’re men’s nipples.

Fun fact! This is a terrible way to hold a snapping turtle. Their necks are quite long and can reach behind their front legs. If you ever do have to hold a turtle, hold them as far back as possible and pray you can keep it balanced.

Skyrkazm ,

My ass boutta use the biggest pair of fucking tongs known to mankind just to hold the Snapping Turtle

justastranger ,

Also watch out for piss

Source: it wasn’t a snapping turtle but a turtle pissed on me repeatedly whilst relocating it, I was genuinely shocked by the sheer volume of piss that it managed to unleash in total

MechanicalJester ,

Dang that was my immediate reaction too!

Ever tried moving an alligator snapper? It’s quite the adrenaline pump…

Waiter asks me: Is everything ok sir?

But when I tell him my marriage is failing, my drinking is out of control, my sex drive is through the floor and I fantasize about dying in my sleep, he looks upset. Like why ask, if you dont wanna know?

Meanwhile all french speakers understand each other perfectly well.

Do English speakers mistake people saying ninety-nine (99) for them saying ninety nine (90, 9)? No? How come? It’s the same thing as in french!

reeen ,

Right, but the tens numeral and the ones numeral being separate words that you add makes more sense than occasionally throwing a curveball like 20×4+5

Kecessa ,

But it’s still clear what we’re saying when we speak. 4 20 5 vs 4, 20, 5 vs 4, 20 5 vs 4 20, 5, non of it sounds the same when we speak.

kryptonianCodeMonkey ,

Do you not have the same issue with all numbers under 70? 62 or (60, 2)? And you still have that problem for numbers in the seventies too, it just looks weirder in decimals. "Did you mean (60, 11) or 71?

Even if there is a possible silver lining, it’s still arbitrary and weird.

Kecessa , (edited )

And in English it would be 71 or 70, 1. I’m just pointing out that this meme about french by english speakers makes no sense since it’s the same thing in english.

kryptonianCodeMonkey ,

I think you’ve missed the point entirely if that is what you think the meme was about

Yeah actual baseball players have names way weirder than these.

Odrisamer Despaigne.
Now check this out: he played for the San Diego Padres, and his name contains all the letters needed to spell out “San Diego Padres”.

This is actually a common pattern in urdu, though not for names.

Like “chai” means tea so :

  • “chai shai” = tea and related stuff
  • "khana wana" = food and related stuff
  • "paisay waisay" = money and related stuff

etc.

user1919 ,

it’s the same in hindi.

Funny how the nationalities don’t go together. Italian/Jewish names mixed in with latino last names.

pythonoob , in Score

Had a girl ask me once if I was super religious just because I knew that AD = anno domini = in the year of our lord.

I don’t think I even knew how to respond.

You also need to provide the kid that must be saved last minute, because they stupidly ran after their soccer ball, and their dumb ass is now in the middle of the road.
