I'm not sure I've ever had an emotion big enough to warrant a tiger to support.

[-] partial_accumen@lemmy.world 51 points 1 year ago

Me either, but maybe by 71 I'll have seen some shit that only 7 tigers can suppress.

Being upset about a burglar breaking into your basement would be one

Karate chop the elephant, monkey!

What is this guy dealing with that requires him to have 7?

[-] wjrii@lemmy.world 46 points 1 year ago

I'm never gonna ~~financially~~ emotionally recover from this!

insane man abuses tigers

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 year ago

There was a lady in my area that was insisting that she could tame foxes.

She was killed by foxes

[-] LowtierComputer@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

That would suck. Their teeth are so sharp.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

It was incredibly brutal and there was blood and body parts everywhere...

She was a bit crazy but no one deserves to be ripped apart by foxes

[-] Ledericas@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

a guy on youtube has a"tame" COyote, that coyote doesnt act very tame, and its teeth are extremely sharp, and it wants to bite all the time.

[-] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 3 points 1 year ago

I've seen those shorts. Tbf he doesn't claim it's tame, and it can leave whenever it wants. And often does for days. "Don't you yar at me!"

[-] jagged_circle@feddit.nl 13 points 1 year ago

Didnt know you could have emotional support tigers, cool

What was he arrested for?

[-] goldfish_brain@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Goals, honestly

Some days are hard 😭

[-] anzo@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Now that's some fragile masculinity

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 2 points 1 year ago

My dream of an emotional support Komodo Dragon is a little closer to reality if this MF can have 7 tigers...
