This really raises a lot of questions

There’s the obvious why, and what the fuck.

But more interestingly are the questions of logistics and planning.

Did he kill the deer himself or just see a roadkill deer on the side of the road lick his lips and get to work?

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 49 points 1 day ago

These are very reasonable questions. But I don't really want to know the answers to them.

No one is talking about how that guy is 32 and looks like he’s in his 60s

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago

Well, it has been a loong hard ~~day~~

~~week~~

~~year~~

~~decade~~

life.

It's been a long hard life. Just think. He's only 32. He wasn't even born for 9/11.

Or maybe he was. I'm unclear how many years long 2020 was. 2025 was at least 6 years long. And January 2026 was at least 2 years.

Honestly it's all a blur. A horrific blur, in which I ask myself daily "What unspoken atrocities will we give birth to today, and how many people will suffer from this fresh new hell?"

And the answer is always "Yes."

jfc! Missed that nugget! I guess you don't end up covered in fur, fucking a dead deer if your life is going well though

Depends on your definition of going well.

That's Kentucky 32.

fuck that makes me feel like my friend wasn't lying when he said I looked good and asked if I've been working out

because no, I haven't really. not any more than I was before anyways

[–] csolisr@hub.azkware.net 1 points 1 day ago

Wondering if that's due to him being sick with deer-sentery or gono-reindeer

[–] MrSelfDestruct25@fedinsfw.app 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

More importantly, what was the deer wearing??

[–] Old_Jimmy_Twodicks@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It was asking for it, field dressed like that...

[–] daychilde@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I just want you to know I hate you for that pun. lol

[–] bizarroland@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Plus aren't deer potential carriers of rabies? Like, could you imagine getting rabies from fucking a dead deer and dying because of that?

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

They didn't have that scenario in Oregon Trail.

It was always dysentry.

Learn the danger of NSTDR^[Necro–Sexually-Transmitted Deer Rabies] today!

[–] bhamlin@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

When they found him, the deer was dead. They don't seem to know if he started that way.

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago

That's even worse, because dead deer can't consent.
