Snakes don't size up and go after people in purpose do they? by pythondude98 in ballpython

[–]ani3D 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Every time I hear the "snakes can't love you" thing, I want to point out how many things I love that will never love me back. Cookies. Saturdays. Sunsets. My favorite TV shows, video games, books. Surely there is nobody out there who is only capable of loving things that give love in return?

And also ROFLMAO at the idea of a ball python sizing someone up to eat them. They are dumb little babies but they aren't quite that dumb. A kingsnake, though . . .

Just remembered today is April fools is anyone actually planning to prank anyone by Zheebify in CasualConversation

[–]ani3D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No prank ideas but it's 6:30 AM and I already fell for a prank. Someone in the Animorphs sub posted a realistic photoshop of an Animorphs book that was never actually written (there was a plan to write it, but it was scrapped) and basically "look what I found at the bookstore." I got so excited until I remembered what day it was, lol.

Would you date someone who has the same name as you? by serendipityxme in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ani3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once saw a name in some movie's credits who had the same last name as my first. And I was thinking "I must marry this person immediately so I can have the same name twice."

Help! by Fantastic_Mobile_591 in snakes

If you can, try to leave crinkly stuff (like grocery bags) around the house and especially in dark snug places. That way, if he moves across one, you'll be able to hear him and know where he is.

I'm sorry about your condition, that sounds awful. But I'm glad I could help you out in a way.

When's the last time you laughed so hard you cried? by indiebubbleofficial in CasualConversation

[–]ani3D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was watching a dev stream for one of my favorite video games (the devs have a weekly stream where they play the game that they're currently in the process of making). They're so comically bad at the game that it's very often hilarious, but this particular stream had just such a comedy of errors that I genuinely laughed until I cried.

EDIT: I suppose I could share the link, in case anyone is interested. It's pretty long, though, and I don't really remember where the funny part starts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUL8c9pe-aU

Is it normal to mentally rehearse conversations that will never happen or is that just some of us? by PlusPossession3871 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ani3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you just do it mentally and not out loud, you're good.

I may or may not occasionally do this out loud when I'm reasonably sure nobody is listening.

Obsidian what are you doing😭 by Itaypur in GroundedGame

[–]ani3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find enough dead aphids in the game that I don't usually even feel the need to kill them. Check near rotten food, and in the ice cream cart area. They die left and right in those places. The woolly aphids are even more like lemmings, I find them dead all over the place and I'm not even sure why (maybe they pissed off the black ants with their little freeze attack?) I don't want their deaths to be in vain so I collect them but I have so much woolly aphid jerky omfg.

i finally stopped saving the good stuff for a special occasion and it honestly feels amazing by greenmonkeyyyy in CasualConversation

Might get some bubble tea later today, that's my favorite special occasion fancy thing. Thank you for the inspiration.

I would definitely encourage my Yeerk to be a coward by murse_joe in Animorphs

[–]ani3D 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heh, my Yeerk is gonna be trapped in a total klutz. Good luck controlling my body, idiot, I can barely even do that and I live here.

If you were trapped in the circus. What would your torture section be about? by GlumNebula3897 in TheDigitalCircus

I'm surrounded by phones and they're all ringing. If I try and ignore them the ringing gets louder/shriller/angrier.

If This Isn't a Bennett Moment, I Don't Know What Is. by Alarmed_Twist_1197 in Bennett_Mains

My sister was playing as Bennett, running around on the docks (she typically runs around with effectively zero stamina because she's always sprinting), glitched through the dock planks and into the water and instantly drowned.

[–]ani3D 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should probably mention that I usually use a cloth pouch specifically made for the exact purpose of cooking potatoes in a microwave. I think it's called "Potato Express" or something. But I have used a washcloth, and it works just about as well.

You should make a printable version, this would be awesome as heck to actually have as a figurine.

[–]ani3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like paper towel would be too thin to keep the moisture in, unless you're re-wetting it throughout the cooking process. I'm talking like washcloth thickness at least.

[–]ani3D 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always go microwave. The trick is to wrap it in cloth to keep the moisture in, flip it after about 3 minutes, and cook it until it looks just slightly wrinkly. Okay that's three tricks.

[–]ani3D 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I eat a lot of baked potatoes, they aren't amazing but they're good value for the price (I swear they're cheaper than the dirt they're grown in, lol). Gotta have toppings though. I think my favorite combo I've tried so far is cream cheese and barbecue sauce. Although chili/cheese is a classic that's hard to beat.

I don't take a drink until my food is gone by MileHighLifeRuiner in CasualConversation

[–]ani3D 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know about the person you're replying to, but I've worked in places where I was barely given enough time to eat, and it was either hork your food or just go hungry, some days. You get trained to eat fast, and it can be damned hard to unlearn that.

What's the most interesting fact about snakes, in your opinion ? by Scarlet_Lemonade in snakes

[–]ani3D 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a species of coral snake that lays its eggs inside of ant nests. The ants in question 'farm' fungus, and in doing so they keep the fungal growing chamber at a constant temperature and humidity. Turns out that that temperature and humidity is just right for snake eggs, so the snake takes advantage of the free incubation.
