I'd love to meet one of those few. A skateboarder eating that much krill has to be such an amazing spectacle

I wanna see a whale do a kickflip more, that would be wicked as fuck!

Pretty cool, but I think I'd rather watch a teenager in baggypants break the laws of physics entirely by consuming multiple times his body mass

What that fuck? I was just having a piss and I fucking read your comment and - it didn't, but - what if my snort of laughter when I did had caused my fucking urine stream to shoot back and to the left and fucking soaked my spare toilet rolls? Did you fucking think about that when ou posted? FFS.

Apologies, I hadn't considered the impact my comment might have on the urinary tract of innocent readers

Are you, by chance, a dolphin or whale?

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 0 points 1 month ago

I think we've just reinvented the Xgames.

They do there belly flops, where they rise from the water and splash on it. I suppose that is pretty close, but I have done neither.

very few whales, not 0. That's something I want to see!

I can drink hydrochloric acid without dyeing

Watch out, that stuff can die your clothes.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All clothes dead, even the little socks

[–] Morganza@lemmynsfw.com 0 points 1 month ago

Socks are cemetery of unborn kids

Just because you've never seen a whale do a kickflip doesn't mean they can't.

[–] Rozz@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 month ago

They would just rather not

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wouldn't they do flipper-flips instead?

[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Does one need feet to kick?

[–] boonhet@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

It only says most can't - but we'll never be able to prove that such a whale does not exist at all.

I had my first class on heterogeneity in the classroom today and the teacher would have loved this tweet

[–] grysbok@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Why not share it with teacher?

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

I’d have to wait two weeks, because she doesn’t check her email, but I already bookmarked it

It's true, I can't even put away a million krill before I start feeling like a glutton.

[–] Neverclear@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 month ago

Bro... if you're not downing at least 10M krill per day, the Kraken wins.

A shark can swim faster than me, but I can outrun a shark. So in a triathlon it comes down to the bicycle part.

[–] Churbleyimyam@lemm.ee 0 points 1 month ago

Yeah but monkeys have hands on their feet, so they can pull on the pedal's upstroke as well as push on the downstroke ☝️

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Despite being a shitpost this is actually quite a positive statement for your own mental health

[–] Altrex@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Find your kickflip.
