But did it affect trout season, though?

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 7 points 2 days ago

17 people died that day, presumably of a bad trout season

[-] GraniteM@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

affect trout season

For the better, or the worse?

[-] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

worse. flood will absorb contaminants into the water bodies.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

first one, then the other

[-] sudoMakeUser@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 days ago

I would imagine the floods would bring the trout out of the rivers and distribute them to locations that are suboptimal for trout fishing.

[-] sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 days ago

Thats honestly hilarious.

Like a joke in a Coen brothers film, ahahah!

I was dating a Japanese woman when the Tsunami happened. No one would eat anything out of the sea for ages considering...

Anon is right though

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 13 points 2 days ago

I, too, said astonishingly dumb shit when i was young.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

the other day i was on a chowder cruise and one of my new friends there was pointing at a building on one of the piers and asking what it was. i squinted, gave it my best "hrm." and then pointed to the right of where she did and said "well it looks like a boat"

the thing i learned about dad jokes (and similar humor) is that you don't tell them to make other people laugh, you tell them to make yourself giggle. like jimmy fallon.

TIL there are cruises that only serve chowder. As if that foul industry couldn't get worse...

[-] PyroNeurosis@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 day ago

Chowder's delightful! That said I wouldn't eat cruise chowder to stave off starvation.

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

I like it too, but that would spoil the punchline.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

they also had salad and some kind of sandwich i couldn't eat.

[-] mbp@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 days ago

I'd rather be fishing, amirite?

[-] Rampsquatch@sh.itjust.works 18 points 3 days ago

Anon has priorities.

[-] ruuster13@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 days ago

Died bcause trout was their staple and they couldn't get more?

[-] antsu@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 days ago

Too much water made the trouts too powerful. They killed all those people, like in a B-tier movie.

[-] blimthepixie@lemmy.dbzer0.com -2 points 3 days ago

Hundreds of thousands of people die every day, get over it

[-] ddplf@szmer.info 10 points 2 days ago

What an obnoxiously shitty take. You can say then when some senile celebrity dies thousands of kilometers away from you, not to someone whose local community has suffered mass tragedy.

[-] blimthepixie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 days ago

It's a greentext, it's likely fiction

[-] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

is mass tragedy worse than watching your father choke to death slowly on his own fluids?

[-] ddplf@szmer.info 5 points 2 days ago

Not comparable at all. Not without context anyways.

[-] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

what if my dad was the one who caused the mass tragedy?

[-] ddplf@szmer.info 6 points 2 days ago

Then you’d better ask your local covenant whether a curse has been cast upon your bloodline, as your father’s deeds may affect your fate

[-] TubularTittyFrog@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

oh, i have been undoing his curse my entire life.

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

that's less of a curse and more of a stain

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 10 points 2 days ago

Which is what I will tell you when one of your loved ones died.

[-] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 1 points 2 days ago

My nan's dying either today or tomorrow and that's just life.

After the next crisis: "There used to be 9 billion of us..."
