I got to hang out with, feed, and pet capybaras and they are some of the chillest mothafuckas I have ever experienced

This is the equivalent to "Im so hungry i could eat a horse"

I like how this style of writing seems to honestly reflect internal deep-level thought processes. It feels like debugging into the assembly level of consciousness.

Only if you're not ADHD. Then it's like, "pelican mouth. Oh yesterday was weird. What's that fucker on the sidewalk doing?! lol movie quote is funny. Will dinner be tasty? What was dinner? lol babies in bird mouth. mmmm chicken..."

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

for me it's more like

  1. pelican mouth is weird
  2. I think I saw a pelican yesterday walking funny
  3. reminds me of that zonked out guy on the sidewalk
  4. that reminds me of this vaguely relevant movie quote about drunk people
  5. I wish I had some movie popcorn
  6. I thought I already ate, why am I hungry?
  7. this must be how the pelicans feel
  8. pelican is bird and bird is chicken mmm I want chicken

to outside observers it looks completely random but it's all vaguely connected (that last one was a stretch)

ADHD brain is multi-threading

Yes but without any synchronization mechanism and full of dirty writes and reads.

TIL I learned that pelican mouths are the prefect size for babies. In fact, the pelican mouth is soft and comfortable which is prefect for sleeping babies. Not only are pelican mouths soft and comfortable, they are the prefect shape for babies. The shape is important to provide support for babies. Pelicans can be trusted to keep babies safe in their mouth.

[–] wabafee@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Put the baby in the pelican mouth.

[–] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 3 points 2 weeks ago

We can trust pelicans to keep the baby safe.

[–] rmuk@feddit.uk 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Right. It's a peli-can not a peli-don't.

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I peli-would if I peli-could.

My thing with pelicans are their freaky ass eyes, I can't fucking tell what they are looking at and for some reason that fucks with me.

[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

I don't trust them. I was at a bird sanctuary and a pelican was blocking the walkway. Every time I looked at it or tried to walk past it would turn it's head sideways and look at me. Than open and close it's mouth and make two loud snaps with it's beak.

After awhile of a standstill an employee there came by and said "oh don't worry, he's not going to hurt you! Just walk by him he'll move."

Fuck that! Even with the assurance I was still like fuck no. Eventually it moved and I scuttled past, but didn't keep my eyes off it. Afterwards it jumped back on the path behind me and started waddling after me, slowly. Sure it might have been harmless, but it sure as fuck wasn't projecting that.

[–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

We need to mobilize against these freaks, the mess with my head just as much as horses and their evil beady ass eyes

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 week ago

Geese are assholes, but they don't hide that fact and in fact want you to be VERY aware of it.
Pelicans meanwhile are evil, they hide their assholery so you'll think you're safe.

The strength with which I was rooting for that pigeon; but I already knew, the moment I started the video.

[–] Dry_Monk@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

This definitely reads like it's written by the pelican, addressing someone with a baby
