Grizzly Man was able to do it a few times. Until he wasn't.
Worth it.
With "bears" being plural, I think it's very possible you score one pet on one bear but do not find time in your remaining days on earth to get your hand(s)/stump(s)/organ(s) into some scritches on the second one.
Therefore I must, with the utmost politeness, disagree with your assertion!
And I just know this is a great metaphor for some manufacturing defect or race condition I've investigated at work, lol.
Speaking of which, in that analogy the "remaining days on earth" would definitely be stored as a double precision floating point and not an integer. I mean obviously, lol.
You CAN pet bears, but you'll wanna wash your hands afterwards: The are oily and stink like the biggest, wettest stankiest dog you ever smelled.
The apples are probably fermented so those may very well be tipsy bears.
Can I pet them then?
Like any drunk people, either very definitely yes or very definitely not, there is no middle ground.
Why friend-shaped, if not friend?
Design flaw
Intelligent design my ass
You can pet bears. I wouldn’t make many future plans though.
Actually I bet if you found some bear cubs, you could pet or play with them. At least until mama bear comes round.
I mean you can probably pet some bears
They might be in a good mood after having all those apples. Not that I'd want to try.
I mean, I would want to try, but would be using all my strength to focus logically instead of emotionally. Just one second of caving in could be the best last day of my life.
Can I pet that dog?
