This is 90% what I expected a kiwi to sound like.

I like how it leaves in a swiggity swooty fashion.

[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 6 points 6 days ago

Truly a doofus of a bird.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago

How have I never noticed that these goobers don't have arms or nothin. I can't imagine this thing walking in any way other than a swiggity swooty approach.

This is God's creature right here.

[-] tabarnaski@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

I had to rewatch the video to make sure I got an exact image of what swiggity swooty means

[-] Caligvla@lemmy.dbzer0.com 85 points 1 week ago

I thought kiwis spoke English.

They say "LILILILILILI!" Then cut your throat with a thrown chakram that bounced off the throat of the guy beside you.

Ah, so the kiwi has a bird body but still uses its dinosaur voice.

[-] Klear@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

All birds use their dinosaur voices.

Nightmare Potato.

There is currently chaos in my house. I played this on my phone without headphones and my dogs have absolutely lost their shit. The Miniature Pinscher, being a Miniature Pinscher, was barking and spinning and occasionally attacking his spaniel brother who just has this "WTF BRO" face of horror on. Mayhem.

PS: He's calmed down...after a close to ten minute freak out.

[-] thegreatgarbo@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Yep, our Iggy ran all the way out to the back yard prancing around tail up, barking at the intruder back inside the house. The other two are sitting in bed with me with a 'wtf was that!' expression.

As it goes with Min-Pins, he couldn't give less of a shit the second time around. He's over it.

Sounds just like the fruit.

[-] some_guy 34 points 1 week ago

When it ran away was pretty great.

[-] YungOnions@sh.itjust.works 9 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

My job here is done! Away!

[-] capital@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

“Until next time”

[-] sircac@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I can hear the dinosaur in it…

[-] intensely_human@lemm.ee 2 points 5 days ago

Like it ate a little dinosaur? But how??

[-] thegreatgarbo@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Husband: I want one of those! /s

Wife: who needs a rooster when you can hear that all night long??

[-] GreyEyedGhost@lemmy.ca 28 points 1 week ago

This is the sound of an animal with no natural predators.

[-] LennethAegis@fedia.io 3 points 6 days ago

Nonsense, I remember watching a documentary as a kid that the tasmanian devil would spin around into a little tornado and eat kiwis.

[-] expatriado@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago

slowed down would sound like the stereotypical t-rex

I eat kiwi all the time and I ain't never heard them make a sound.

[-] OutlierBlue@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 week ago

They're obviously dead before they put the them out at the grocery store. I bet you don't see yours running around outside either.

[-] GiddyGap@lemm.ee 24 points 1 week ago

Also a very interesting run style.

[-] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 24 points 1 week ago

So melodious.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

I don't believe this is a real animal.

[-] thegreatgarbo@lemmy.world 8 points 6 days ago

Birds aren't real

[-] wabafee@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

It's a fruit

[-] OpenStars@discuss.online 20 points 1 week ago

I suddenly understand the inspiration behind shows like Lost being made:-).

Sounds just like the sounds newer trucks make when they back up: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=A3Wt1_51EVA

[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

Screams of a thousand dark souls...

[-] CheeryLBottom@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

That's some Jurassic Park stuff, right there

[-] user1234@lemmynsfw.com 14 points 1 week ago

Sounds like a slipping serpentine belt.

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 14 points 1 week ago

Holy piss I did not expect that

[-] Kintarian@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Imagine you're camping, it's 2:00 a.m., and you hear that noise!

[-] sloppy_diffuser@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago

Sounds like one of my 10 alarms, all with different tones, to make sure I wake up. This one is Krypton on Android.

[-] cholesterol@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

This reminds me so much of the scrabs of Oddworld

Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
