icecream Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 as much as I oppose the term Hipster I definitely couldn't help but laugh at the irony when I was ordering some cheap levis on urban outfitters that animal collective came up on genius while on my mac. kyacrash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abovetheearth Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 if i could domesticate any wild animal and make it a pet, it would be a squirrel. ronniegwilliams 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyacrash Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 if i could domesticate any wild animal and make it a pet, it would be a squirrel. squirrel would be cool, but my boy used to have a possum, err, an opossum, and that thing was badass. I guess he rescued it when it was young or something but it was totally domesticated. You could hold him and pet him, he had these little hands that were kinda like people hands only tiny, and he would grab a hold of your finger or something and it was actually pretty fucking cute. Only thing kinda weird was his tail felt like a rope. Also, he had the greatest name of all time. Petey Pablo Possum (Triple-P, or just "Trip" for short). edit: in fact, here's a video of said possum doing exactly what I described lol and here he is in a sombrero with a bottle of crown and a blunt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlebistro Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 One time I was driving in the dark on a country road behind a line of cars. We were leaving a theme park, Darien Lake, I work the concerts there in the summer. Well, I was driving and saw what I thought to be a cat get hit by a car. I've never felt so horrible in my life seeing that happen. It's head looked like it was screaming, but it's body wasn't moving from its "waste" up, so it was turning in a circle. On my way to work the next day I saw the "cat" in the street, dead. Turned out to be a possum, and I no longer felt bad. Also, I would want a domesticated fox. I read in a national geographic that they're starting to do it in like Norway or something and thought that would be super cool to own. Edit: turned out to be Russia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesticated_silver_fox rudeboydh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: turned out to be Russia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesticated_silver_fox this whole thing is eerie for a couple of reasons. 1. i had the exact same thing happen on the highway, except it WAS a cat. the whole head thing and waist thing. 2. i almost put fox. ive wanted one forever. researched them and found a farm near me. when my wifes dog dies, im getting that squirrel. and when that dies, im gettin me that fox. but a red one. youtube has some super cute footage of pet foxes.

It was kinda funny, but I did feel bad... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebistro Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 What do you feed a domesticated possum? Also, my brother has a pool business, and I help him out sometimes when he's swamped with openings and closings. Well when you open pools you find some nasty shit, especially if someone didn't open it the previous year or two. Found two dead possums in one pool. It's kind of weird that I have so many possum stories apparently. Maybe I'm destined to own one. It is kind of interesting, did that guy that had the possum take it to the vet and such? Did it sleep in a cage? I'd be so worried about it going rogue on me in my sleep, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kyacrash Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Yea the possum slept in this cage/bed thing and I think he ate cat food. He was super docile. rudeboydh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abovetheearth Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 A few summers ago, one of our hottest on record, I was taking out the trash. We have two 50 gallon cans in the back. As I approached the empty one I noticed white specks all around the lid and handles. As I got closer I noticed they were moving. Knowing what needed to be done I lifted the lid and to my horror it was completely full of maggots. 50 gallons of maggots. And on the very top was a half rotten, eaten possum moving like he was floating on a raft out at sea. The heat had steamed it too, so his face and flesh were barely gripping the bone. that stench. That scene. He had crawled in the day prior and drowned in the water at the bottom. It was so heavy, a buddy of mine helped me load it in a truck. I live a block from the Missouri river. We heaved the can into the river. It sank immediately, leaving a few maggots to surface. I can still see those beady eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruckis Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 Checking a thread with multiple pages is extremely annoying on an iPhone. When I want it to go to the last page, it goes to the first and vice versa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
