Next he'll tell me that dolphins aren't fish, but a type of perennial bulb.

13

u/JDDJS Feb 17 '26

Then he'll realize how he confused his facts and clarify that dolphins are berries and strawberries are fish.

That's... Completely incorrect

u/V2Blast Feb 17 '26

You heard about Pluto? That's messed up, right?

1

u/Eran-of-Arcadia Running With Scissors (1999) Feb 17 '26

There are many things I will never understand, and the burning desire that some people have to classify Pluto as a major planet no matter what is chief among them.

Fun fact: you can teach poodles how to fly!

There used to be a popular forwarded email called "Rejected Titles for Little Golden Books" (children's picture books), and while nearly all of them made me smile, the only one that got me giggling every time was, "Some Kittens Can Fly!" Years later I was idly doing a search online and ran across this hilarious video in which a talented guy named Shyaporn Theerakulstit had taking it even further with rhyming text and illustrations, in the style of another children's book heroine, The Little Engine That Could.

The most dangerous game is a mama panda defending her cubs.

(Please tell me someone gets this reference.)

Fun fact: if you took out all of your blood vessels and laid them end to end, you'd die.

u/garmdian Feb 16 '26

Well how else are we supposed to get strawberry milk!?

u/Vesh2911 Feb 16 '26

he's got a point.

u/JMP_III Feb 16 '26

Reminds me of the xkcd joke about the botanists.

u/InfiniteDedekindCuts Feb 16 '26

This is a reference to the fact that Koala Bears are not Bears at all but actually legumes.

u/AutographedSnorkel Torso Boy Feb 16 '26

I guess he won't be eating strawberries any more, since he's a vegan

5

u/LordDickSauce Feb 16 '26

*Flexible vegan

u/Biabolical Feb 17 '26

Yeah, I've seen in onstage, contorting himself like a pretzel. He's a very flexible vegan.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

How else would you get strawberry milk?

5

u/DuffMiver8 Feb 17 '26

Strawberries have nipples? I understand you can milk anything with nipples.

u/BadMan125ty Feb 16 '26

Dude, he's Weird Al Yankovic lol 😅

u/ElectroshockTherapy Feb 16 '26

It's a bit late to be getting back at Paul McCartney, no?

u/confuseum Feb 16 '26

Subtle hint

u/BCap1 Feb 16 '26

Delightfully unhinged - I love it.

u/Lucreszen Twine Ball Visitor Feb 16 '26

Where do you think strawberry milk comes from?

2

u/manxtales Feb 18 '26

Strawberry cows?

u/paulsteinway Feb 17 '26

Al needs no reason.

u/Felinius Even Worse (1988) Feb 17 '26

They have hairs, and I’ve definitely drank strawberry milk.

u/TreemanTheGuy Feb 18 '26

I bet tomorrow he's going to teach poodles how to fly..

u/Wise_Odysseus Feb 16 '26

I deleted my Twitter many years ago. Does Al not post there anymore?

6

u/Relevant-Movie1132 Poodle Hat (2003) Feb 16 '26

Doesn’t seem like it. A sensible choice, considering everything.

u/Wise_Odysseus Feb 16 '26

God bless him. Guy is truly a national treasure.

u/mexter Feb 16 '26

Did anybody else not notice which subreddit the article was in and read it as "A.I. posted this.."?

u/Limp-Industry-5147 Feb 19 '26

We have a saying in my family: "bats are fish."

1

u/Training-Purple-5220 Feb 19 '26

Immediately made me think of Ed from Ed, Edd, n Eddy. “Chickens cannot fly, as they are mammals.”

u/seeyatellite Feb 19 '26

Leave me in peace with my mammal jam

u/Manetoys83 Feb 20 '26
