If snails did have tears with salt in them, the salt would already be in their body, meaning he'd already be dead.

Yes, and lions and dinosaurs can't talk, but this is a community where we post silly comic strips so maybe chill out with the fact-checking my dude?

It's a cool fun fact regardless of whether it's relevant to comedic value

Grim. Have a great day, and may you stub your toe on a roomba.

Despite being believed by many slugs smiling doesn't actually prevent you from crying

A comma makes this two very different sentences.

Despite being believed by many, slugs smiling doesn't actually prevent you from crying

Or

Despite being believed by many slugs, smiling doesn't actually prevent you from crying

Slugs smiling would absolutely prevent me from crying. (At least from sadness, it might be so beauriful I cry because of that though)

I'm getting major Spuds Macenzie vibes here. Alternate backstory?

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Good morning to you, too.
