BIG Lorax energy

It’s pretty clearly a cog.

Or perhaps a dat.

My brain autocorrected both of those and went "oh look, someone hasn't gotten the joke and thinks is funny to tell it but badly"...

I honestly prefer it when my brain autoincorrects things. Much more entertaining!

Aughra had bigger, disturbing puppet knockers.

I think this is actually a cat that's pretending to be a dog. Like a cat actor. Or Ca-ctor.

But it's fine, because on the Internet, nobody knows you are a dog.

And definitely a cat nose

And the angery expression

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 13 points 2 years ago

While I totally appreciate a The Labyrinth reference, I'm afraid that this is a Fizzgig from The Dark Crystal.

Either that or a feral Lorax named Wilford Brimley.

Edit: Also this exists:

That's just animal abuse on some level. My dogs hate anything that makes them warmer. Hell, they only sleep with me for a little bit, and then choose the floor cause my average temperature is 100.5°F so cats love cuddling me, but I'm way too warm for dogs or most humans. Dogs don't sweat though so heat management is rather important for their survival, unlike us.

"Do you have a dog or a cat?"

Yes!

It looks like a 19th century philosopher

You really gonna post a dog picture on cat instance? You're fucking stupid

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Never seen a cat with eyebrows like that, I am going to say dog

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

That's totally a cat that's hiding it's tail. The pupils are slitted not round.

Either that or a Lorax
