It's so happy to be here

You can’t convince me that that’s not an Orca.

Orcas have always been friends to humans that do not own yachts.

"Saruman the White has ever been our friend and ally" Get away from that computer, killer whale!

But ye, fuck yachts

Hmm, "1200-600 CE"?

Looks like it should be 1200-1600 CE (or AD).

Oh no, nobody tell Nintendo about this. They'll be sharpening their copyrights and salivating over patents.

I can't believe that took 600 years to carve

Guess Nintendo's going to have to sue Akira Toriyama's estate, then.

[-] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

It looks like a fun chair.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 week ago

It's funny how only the sex toys have survived this long

[-] VubDapple@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

It's beautiful but the neat part is he's smiling

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

If it squeaks when you squeeze it i’mma freak out

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 week ago
