BIG Lorax energy

[–] ikapoz@sh.itjust.works 47 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Joke’s on you. That’s an owl.

[–] sag@lemm.ee 16 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Wait. Really? I thought it's a hairy capybara

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's an octopus. Octopuses look however they want to look.

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No that's chameleons. Octopuses have 8 sides.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

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"...

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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

[–] teamevil@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Did the same thing

[–] EmergMemeHologram@startrek.website 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I get Dark Crystal Aughra energy

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

I have one of those!

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

Aughra had bigger, disturbing puppet knockers.

And definitely a cat nose

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

And the angery expression

[–] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 18 points 2 years ago

I want to see this friend in a studio Ghibli movie. The expressions he would have as shenanigans take place around him

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.

[–] affiliate@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

in my expert opinion this is just a little guy

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

"Do you have a dog or a cat?"

Yes!

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.

It looks like a 19th century philosopher

Just check it's claws.

Canis familiaris

[–] 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

[–] Destraight@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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