Graphic design is my passion. Unironically, I like it 👍🏼

It's like if ObviousPlant did PSAs

My cob is sweaty 🥵

[-] TurtleTourParty@midwest.social 10 points 2 weeks ago

It's actually easily readable which gives it points from me

[-] Odo@lemmy.world 33 points 2 weeks ago

Well that's a mystery solved. There are road sections here that get foggier than the rest of the area. I've wondered about that for years and never would've guessed it's the corn.

[-] manicdave@feddit.uk 27 points 2 weeks ago

OP is just atheist propaganda. It's actually because of ghosts. Don't get complacent near the corn fields.

[-] metallic_z3r0@infosec.pub 11 points 2 weeks ago

Turns out ghosts also like corn.

[-] Tryenjer@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Ghosts love to possess the scarecrows of the cornfields.

[-] Rose_Thorne@lemmy.zip 7 points 2 weeks ago

Oh, I thought it was produced by the creepy kids who hide out in the corn fields. Guess I should maybe stop hitting them with my car as they walk out.

[-] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

Atheists and ghosts are not mutually exclusive. They're just not allowed to worship the ghosts.

That kid is one of my favorite things to come out of the internet.

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Have you ever seen the lady who attaches the corn to a drill so she can eat it really fast?

[-] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

The one who get scalped by the drill?

[-] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I was thinking of the one who lost her front teeth but I remember the scalping one too.

I always get a bad case of corn fog when I eat too much caramel corn

[-] Catoblepas@piefed.blahaj.zone 10 points 2 weeks ago

⚠️ CORN FOG!

[-] HylicManoeuvre@mander.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago

I wonder how come, since C4 plants, such as corn, have high water-use efficiency

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 20 points 2 weeks ago

A plant can use water efficiently, in terms of getting a lot of CO2 in exchange for the water they transpire, and still use a lot of water.

Corn grows super fast at peak season.

[-] mnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago

In some cases, such as no wind, you can evem hear it growing. It's like bamboo in that regard, which makes sense since they're both grasses

[-] meyotch@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, it’s a very creepy experience to walk through a corn field at night in July.

Definitely no place for children. If you see any, run like hell. ;)

[-] TempermentalAnomaly@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago

TIL I am a deer. Thank you science!

[-] LilB0kChoy@midwest.social 8 points 2 weeks ago

First time I've ever seen/heard transpire used in that way. I'm one of today's lucky 10,000!

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 weeks ago

"Transpire" is the plant version of "perspire." TIL, too!

[-] SippyCup@feddit.nl 1 points 2 weeks ago

Fun fact, that's the origin of the word.

[-] rayyy@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago

Guess JFK Jr gets more roadkill deer.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

It’s got the (fog) juice!
