Aaactually salmon can't talk

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 81 points 3 weeks ago (7 children)

That's not true, I caught one the other day who promised to grant me wishes if I let it go. He wasn't lying but the wishes eventually led to my downfall so now I have a hard time trusting anyone even partially aquatic.

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Did his salmon friends rob your house while he distracted you with the wishes? Happened to me one time. Just wanna make sure it wasn't the same salmon.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I thought it was bad enough when I got catfished by a salmon but you guys got me beat

[–] corodius@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Well, at least its better than getting salmoned by a catfish. that was an experience.

A tale as old as time

[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 8 points 3 weeks ago

Last time a fish tried to grant me a wish, I cut its head off, gut, filet, pan sear on med high till throughly cooked and seasoned with a side of fiddleheads. Wish granted.

[–] WeirdGoesPro@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 3 weeks ago

I think, upon closer inspection, you’ll find that you were actually talking to a large mouth bass named Billy. Excellent singer too.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

partially aquatic.

So, like, a mermaid?

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I would definitely never trust a mermaid. Well maybe if they sang the right song.

[–] Geobloke@lemm.ee 4 points 3 weeks ago

You just don't know where they stand

You have to give them credit.

That's a comically sick burn

You mean sauce? Cream sauce.

[–] SnokenKeekaGuard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 61 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

I am already annoyed at the ineveitble umm actually replies about salmon's not being exactly the color salmon and humans not being the same color either. Pre-pissed

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 45 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

The bigger "Umm, actually" is that during spawning season, their outsides are that color.

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 14 points 3 weeks ago

And when it isn't their spawning season, you're not very likely to see them in the wild, so it kinda makes sense that people associated the colour with the fish.

[–] biggerbogboy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 weeks ago

spawning season

Damn so they NPCs fr

[–] wise_pancake@lemmy.ca 19 points 3 weeks ago

Achually it’s named after Salmon Rushdie and is the true colour of Satan’s flesh.

[–] Slovene@feddit.nl 28 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Yup. It doesn't matter if a woman is black or white or whatever, they're all pink on the inside where it matters. 😏 I'm talking about brains, of course.

[–] Stovetop@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

Then why the heck we call them gray matter?

[–] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Brains ARE grey, they just hold a LOT of blood, making them look pinkish. But the neurons are grey.

The brain also has white matter (the axons) which is white due to a fatty layer.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't know about you but I like my women alive.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Dead on the inside, alive on the outside. Wait, I think that's me. My bad.

[–] GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today 6 points 3 weeks ago

Different preservation methods, doncha know? Now sit right there as I tell you aaaaaall about why anything but formaldehyde is heresy....

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 23 points 3 weeks ago

D'y'know how many fish are "silvery-blue", salmon?? Get over yourself, and be glad we didn't name the color "sockeye pink".

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago

Some species just evolved to taste better with cream cheese, we don't make the rules…

[–] GoodLuckToFriends@lemmy.today 18 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Human: "Uh... you've seen us with dogs, right?"

Salmon: "Yah."

Human: "And we rub their bellies, you know?"

Salmon: "Okay."

Human "Well you all turn pink on your bellies when you're swimming upstream to have one last gasp of orgasmic explosion over all your future kids before dying and we try to stop you and slit open that belly to rip out your organs and pop your major blood vessel before cutting you into chunks and throwing you in a fire."

Salmon: ".... Just what the Fuuuu-

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 weeks ago

Hey, you should see what we did to Mr. Steckerlfisch over there.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 13 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

since when is salmon pink? it's very obviously orange, tuna is pink.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 17 points 3 weeks ago

You need to adjust your RGB settings. Tweak them until the salmon is pink-orange and not orange-pink.

[–] Croquette@sh.itjust.works 9 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Salmon pink is a real color. But I think it refers to the cooked salmon, and not raw salmon.

Colors are such a subjective experience! I would definitely classify salmon as pink, but now that you say it I can see why another person might classify it as orange. It would never have occured to me naturally though.

Isn't that cool?

[–] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago

"Why the long face?"

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

As my horny friend with 3 testicles says, "It's all pink on the inside!"

[–] zarathustrad@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

If I had a nickel for every ET the Extra Testicle reference I have seen today...

That would be 2 nickels, more nickels than I have used as currency since I last watched "Still Smok'n". Which is weird.

[–] jpeps@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago

Farrow & Ball go further by just calling their salmon paint colour "Dead Salmon".

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

If it ain't pink on the inside you better run away fast as you can

Pink salmon have a kinda pinkish stripe on them

[–] pinheadednightmare@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

It’s not pink… it’s salmon.

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago

It's umm sockeye salmon colour.

[–] mtchristo@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Now let the shrimp ask a Frenchman the same question.
