The forbidden ramen.

What a terrible day to have eyes.

This is also how I feed the birds. I am banned from the park.

the one time I'm glad my internet is slow enough to read comments before any picture loads

[–] deacon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Just in case you did bail before it loaded, it is a painting, not a photo, and it is unhinged but not gross. Per se.

[–] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This is the most ominous usage of per se I have ever seen.

This is how I got rid of mine but it was thanks to mice, not birds in my case. I felt like Cinderella!

I didn't know tapeworms came out

[–] Phil_in_here@lemmy.ca 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They're named after the tape measure and if those birds let go its the coming back in you've got to worry about.

[–] ascend@lemmy.radio 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I really regret commenting on this post

[–] NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

A reply in your inbox is just like a tapewormmeasure, it keeps you coming back to the post.

Older people around here tell stories of homemade treatments where the person would be fasting for hours while sat on a chair with a hole, with a bucket of milk or white wine. According to them, this would make the tapeworm get out (very slowly) into the bucket.

Sorry, babe, I just made plans for the weekend.

[–] morto@piefed.social 3 points 4 weeks ago

Hope you made plans for two

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago

they do if they get exposed to water, where they release the eggs, or it gets long enough to exit the bumhole.

[–] Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 month ago

Pull the tapeworm out of your ass, hey!

[–] pomegranatefern@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

On the one hand, perhaps this is my own fault for browsing all while eating spaghetti. On the other hand, what were the odds.

[–] Chakravanti@monero.town 1 points 4 weeks ago

You could add some tomatoes, make it eat itself, and have it finish its job on the whole 'verse.

[–] ExLisper@lemmy.curiana.net 7 points 1 month ago

Nature is so beautiful.

[–] SailorFuzz@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Go fly a kite

[–] Kellenved@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

How nice of those seagulls

[–] oxideseven@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 weeks ago

What's the opposite of "not all heros wear capes"? Cus that's what you are.

You're like the villain no one deserved or something.
