I feel like this is a safe place to tell this story.

My roommate had a chameleon. Some mornings I would greet him by saying “what up, my lizard!”

All I would ever get in response was side eye.

Use the link function and add an exclamation mark in front of it to embed the image, like this: ![example](http://link/)

I know the markdown code, but it don't work for me, nor to upload the image from the menu. Seams that Lemmy don't accept well images hosted by vgy for some reasons, only works occasionally.

Welcome the reptilian overlords

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

sometimes, when explaining mundane things that can’t be confused as a metaphor, literally sounds extra stupid…

An orange bearded dragon on a blue, flannel blanket This is my darling son Tofu

*Edit: formatting

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

A beard suggests hair, that sounds suspiciously mammalian, I hope for your sake it's just the name...

Edit: The alt text mentions that Tofu, who looks very pretty, is a bearded dragon.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

Tofu stands guard at the window! Thank you for keeping us safe, Tofu!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

Please tell cute Tofu that I love him and he is the best!! Thank you for sharing his cuteness with us!

  *crowd chanting* "GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE!" 

"Gustave is a man-eating male Nile crocodile that roams the Ruzizi river and the northern shores of Lake Tanganyika in Burundi, Africa. Gustave is rumored to have killed as many as 200–300 people, though one more recent estimate states the true figure is probably 60 people or fewer. He has obtained a mythical status and is greatly feared by the people in the region."
