Then you realize that you died somewhere between steps 2 & 3.

I once saw him down six chained spicy Italian glizzies without breaking eye contact. Anon’s got this.

[-] PatMustard@feddit.uk 68 points 1 year ago

Silverbacks are adult male gorillas, not adolescents. I'm beginning to doubt that anon has thought this through at all!

[-] setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 44 points 1 year ago

His plan is completely bananas.

[-] pinkdrunkenelephants@lemmy.cafe 3 points 1 year ago

If anyone tells him that, he'll likely go completely apeshit

No because this is ~~classical~~ operant conditioning not Pavlovian.

Edit: Corrected for my stupid response while exhausted.

I think its like every pavlovian is a classical but not every classical is a pavlovian.

[-] JokklMaster@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

This is what happens when I'm posting while exhausted. It's not Pavlovian/classical, it's operant conditioning.

Because a raging silverback gorilla that can bench two tons just isn't enough - it needs to be a swole silverback for it to count.

Some guys really have self-confidence issues.

No wonder even his made up girlfriend dumped him.

[-] TheSanSabaSongbird@lemdro.id 31 points 1 year ago

There's no such thing as an adolescent silverback. A silverback is a fully mature dominant male. They don't gain the silver coloration until they are mature, so the entire premise is a contradiction in terms.

[-] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Out of all the arguments that could've been made you chose the dumbest.

Silverback is a species. Whether or not it has the silver back is irrelevant. It would still be an adolescent silverback even without a silver back.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 25 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I didn't know so I googled it, you're wrong. The species is Mountain Gorilla. Silverbacks are mature male troop leaders:

https://virunga.org/wildlife/primates/mountain-gorillas/silverback-gorilla/

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorilla

The Wikipedia article makes exactly one reference to silverbacks, again referring to the leader of the troop. Do the world a favor, check yourself before you talk shit.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I reject your reality and choose to believe that weird guy's.

[-] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

So a silverback is a specific species of mountain gorilla that has a distinctive silver hair on its back after a certain age.

Almost like I said silverback is a species

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 year ago

Bald men are my favorite species. It gets me moist knowing that they can’t get me pregnant.

[-] 0ops@lemm.ee 16 points 1 year ago

Lol, now say "rooster is a species". Fuckin dork

[-] Poggervania@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

~~Redditor~~ Lemmy user admitting they might be wrong challenge (impossible)

[-] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Nah I'll admit it

I looked it up at first and the phrasings I kept seeing was "species of mountain gorilla" so I assumed that meant it was a specific species. Woke up to the downvotes so I looked a little deeper and found out I was wrong.

Personally I blame Google for not being able to answer concise questions like "is a silverback gorilla a species" but it is what it is ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

According to the foundation’s website, the growing problem affects one in every 29 million Americans, and one in every 80 Congolese.

💀

"After all, the gorilla is still in their basement"

lmao

[-] SuddenDownpour@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 year ago

Reading through the green text

What kind of deranged experiment is- Oh. ........Oh.

[-] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

If you're going for bulk and rage, you're forgetting the copious amount of steroids...

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 11 points 1 year ago

Using Makima's face for the post was the cherry on the cake.

[-] dukatos@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

So much effort... Just deliver to her adult male chimp after 3 weeks in solitary confinement.

[-] xantoxis@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

This was funny until it became misogynistic, I guess

[-] BambiDiego@lemmy.world 23 points 1 year ago

How? It could be a woman with a woman as an ex, nothing in the post suggests gender.

Methinks projection from you, friend

[-] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

We are talking about 4chan here, but you are more right than wrong.

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

Fair point lol

[-] SomeGuy69@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Did anon have a workout buddy and this is about cheating?

[-] Fizz@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 year ago

Or you could buy gorilla feed from the zoo and mpmd's gorilla mind and gorilla mode. Then after your transformation is complete you take drugs and kill your ex girlfriend.
