This is so amazing, my mind is blown!! Gonna share this with everybody. Also that lizard pic as if it’s laughing is perfect😁
My best fence lizard pic. They’re friends!
Too cute! :)
so about lizard blood. do i have to eat the lizard blood or get the lizard blood on me to become immune to limeys
i have a fight with a british man in six hours so it's somewhat urgent
Oh no… it’s been 12 hrs…
You alright?
i mean this is me we're talking about.
Oh, no, that part actually means you need to have lizard ancestry. A common misconception.
fuck. i merely tried injecting ground lizard tail. i, uh, had an interesting few hours.
That could still work. Depends on where you injected it.
The very end of this article states possums are immune to Lyme disease and will pop them like m&ms when attacked... Are possums not the same as opossums?
