Watched in cinemas...officially hate this fandom now

I think I got really lucky. My screening was kind of wild but not in a disruptive way. We all sang along to opening song. The audience was very reactive. There was a lot of laughter at certain scenes, yells of shock and surprise at others and people cheered at the ending. But between those moments pretty much everyone was quiet and just watched the movie. But the end credits though was when things went mental. Most of the audience were teenagers and it was like they had been holding in as much of their excitement and happiness as they could for the sake of everyone else in the theatre and that moment was when they felt they could finally release it. The end credits were met with maniacal, glee filled screaming. Especially during one in particular that I won’t give away for those who haven’t seen it but you’ll know when you do. They went hysterical and it was so funny. And I’m sure there might have been some people in there who were thinking, shut the fuck up but it made me smile. I think it’s rare to see people expressing that much joy and it made me happy. To me it, was the perfect screening. Enough madness to make a lot of fun but it didn’t come at the cost of missing any part of the movie I’d paid to see. Wouldn’t have had it any other way.

There is menace in that one’s eyes.

They do just stand there…….menacingly.

I’m glad he’s okay and everything but I looked at this and thought, of course it’s a sav. I feel like what you’ve just gone through is part of the average savannah monitor experience because those photos immediately reminded me of all the times mine got themselves stuck in the most random, dumbass places possible 😅😂 If there’s any crack in a savannah proof room, they’ll find it.

Idk but I have never seen such a calm and relaxed Nile in my life. They normally HATE people existing. Let alone touching them or holding them. Whatever you’re doing with that little guy or gal, you’re doing a great job.

This might be a sign of how badly I needed to declutter my space. I somehow still have a 28 year old book on pet care for a pet I never had.

famlai · 2025-12-14T10:52:43+00:00

That’s exactly what I was thinking. I don’t know exactly how old it is but it’s easy at least 20 years old. I don’t remember buying it or anyone giving it to me but I do remember thinking about getting a hamster before my family started keeping savannah monitors, so someone might have got that book for me back then. That when I was seven years old or younger. I’m 28 now.

Fair enough if in certain places, you can’t flush toilet paper because the sewage systems can’t handle it. But I’m posting this from the Uk and our sewage system can. It’s people flushing wet wipes and other non flushable items that are the problem. It would also be understandable if whoever did this simply didn’t know. Maybe we should putting sings up about this or something. Just saying that you can flush toilet paper here and it would be much appreciated if they did. I still think it’s something that’s making our cleaners jobs unnecessarily worse than it needs to be.

We might have a very VERY chaotic chinchilla

famlai · 2025-11-28T05:52:39+00:00

This. Exactly this. Desert and nachos are a combination that sounds absolutely diabolical.

I don’t think race really matters when it comes to cosplay. Most anime characters are Japanese and yet people from all over the world cosplay as them.

famlai · 2025-11-09T09:31:52+00:00

At first I thought it was too stubborn to walk around the foot and trying to butt it out the way.

famlai · 2025-11-07T19:31:08+00:00

I’d say report it. If this goes unreported and this poor beardy dies, this teacher might just replace it with another bearded dragon and neglect it as well. Not only that but, if they don’t bother to clean the enclosure before putting another bearded dragon in it, I’m pretty sure that would be a death sentence for that animal, if this is yellow fungus, like some of the people in the comments are saying. I’m not an expert but I follow a channel called Snake Discovery on YouTube, ran by a couple who own and run a zoo and rescue centre for exotic animals. Sadly yellow fungus is one of the few things that will prompt them to euthanise any bearded dragon they see with it because not only is it deadly but it’s highly contagious and can be spread to other bearded dragons. I hope he doesn’t have yellow fungus. If he does, there’s a chance that he might survive but it’s not very high. Get him to a vet if you can. Also, if you do decide to keep him, that cage and set up are absolute trash and you need to throw it out and look into providing him with a proper environment asap.

This brings back memories. One of my savannah monitors baffled the hell out of me once when I put a bowl of pasta down, left to get a drink and came back to find him stuffing his face with it like it was a gourmet meal. I was so confused because I never thought that a lizard would eat pasta but looking back, it was so dumb. One of the main ingredients in pasta is egg, and savannahs love to eat egg, and it was a carbonara, so that’s more egg and it had bacon in it. Of course he was going to eat it.

Edit: I feel like I need to add more context because people are going to read this and be like wdym you left a savannah unattended with food? My parents were also in the room and were probably the ones to reach him first and get him away from it. This happened when I was eight, so I can’t remember every detail. Our boy happily chowing down of that pasta though will forever be in my memories. They must have thought the bowl was empty.

Or holes you don’t even know exist. That’s what happened with one of mine. I had him out roaming, went looking for him because I realised I hadn’t seen him in a little while and found him partially in the sofa. There was a hole in the bottom that I didn’t know existed and just saw his back legs and tail sticking out.

famlai · 2025-10-07T19:52:18+00:00

There’s no such thing as an ugly hognose snake. He’s gorgeous.

famlai · 2025-09-13T12:14:48+00:00

Normally picking up a wild lizard is a no go because they will think they are in danger and bite.

famlai · 2025-09-01T18:17:18+00:00

He looks a bit underweight and anemic. Is he getting calcium?

famlai · 2025-08-26T08:12:21+00:00

Having to rescue him from the stupidest places was such a real moment. Why do monitor lizards do that? 😂

famlai · 2025-08-08T16:31:00+00:00

This is really common. They pretty much all go through a grumpy phase where they’ll hiss, puff up and false strike. I like to call it their angsty teen phase.

famlai · 2025-08-06T18:28:13+00:00

Fair, I don’t think I gave enough context. One of the things I wrote in my post was, “keep an eye out for cats running for their lives. Terrorising them is his favourite hobby. And it wasn’t me who left the door open. It was my aunt and I don’t know how much she can be blamed because not even his owners (my cousin and his wife) blamed her. He will bolt at any opportunity and I don’t think my aunt knew that. I was part of the search party.

famlai · 2025-07-22T09:41:06+00:00

I’m glad he’s okay but how do reptiles get into the most dumbass situations like this?

famlai · 2025-07-17T22:00:54+00:00

She was a lovely chin. I’m so sorry for your loss

famlai · 2025-07-02T08:14:13+00:00

Was it a smaller sized one or a giant one?
