And a cloaca, since protecting two holes is harder than one.

Surely the ideal beach body is just crab.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 2 points 9 hours ago

Didn't forget the nictating eye membranes so you can see underwater, maybe some gills.

Ngl, sand repelling anus sounds like a good upgrade. Anakin would approve.

[–] zedgeist@lemmy.world 21 points 17 hours ago

It's coarse, irritating, and it gets everywhere.

Except my anus!

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 8 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Describe arm flaps? I think I have those. My anus also frequently emits high powered bursts of gas which could puff away loose sand. I think perhaps I'm pretty close to an ideal beach bod.

You should see a doctor about... ALL of that.

I’ve never had issues with anus sand… what are you guys doing at the beach?

[–] zedgeist@lemmy.world 11 points 17 hours ago
[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago

Depositing our anus sand that you think you aren't getting on your feet.

Why, what do you do with yours?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 8 points 17 hours ago

This is the ideal beach body.

You may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

[–] YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca 7 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

And webbed feet so sand doesn’t get stuck between your toes.

[–] xtr0n@sh.itjust.works 3 points 17 hours ago

Big flappy webbed feet would be amazing for swimming. You wouldn’t need fins. But oversized feet aren’t really considered attractive on women :(

I def wish I had that sand repelling anus.

I hate sand...

I don't know if I picture you more as Anakin Skywalker or Shai Hulud.

Would you still love me if I was a sandworm that shat mind altering chemicals that literally let you travel the vastness of space in mere minutes?

[–] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 4 points 16 hours ago

I don't love you now but if you were that I would

[–] danekrae@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

that shat mind altering chemicals that literally let you travel the vastness of space in mere minutes

You say that, like it's not a bonus

[–] MeatPilot@sh.itjust.works 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Exactly, my blubber adds extra insulation, buoyancy, and protection from predators.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 1 points 11 hours ago

Plus, it makes you a better food source for sharks.

Did-a-chick? Dud-a-chum?

Not to worry, no sand in bum

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

A sand-attracting anus could have is own bright sides. At some point, you become a Katamari.
