OMG

i was doing what i do last night and was smashing on some rainbow sherbert and decided to look at toucans for some reason and discovered that i love them.

this dude likes to be pet like a dog. it looks like a weird link so here it is if it wont imbed.

her name is ripley.

here she is munching on some chic fil a. special occasion



this link looks weird too

she discovers watermelon.

he said they will try to outsmart you and be very discreet to get what they want.
he puts it out and she doe this little dance of going to it and walking away and then going to it and acting like she is not looking at it and going away.

have you ever known anyone with a pet toucan?

Good lord. Hard to watch. If you should get one, promise you won't feed it greasy fast food.

That thing is excellent.

I know someone who had one, they are nice birds but costly and sometimes get mean streaks. You do not need one, you just want one. I would rather own a bird who was always friendly, those bipolar types kind of suck.

oh im not getting one

theyre like 7 grand and even if i had the cash i wouldnt

i love bird but not enough to keep one

i could spend my days smoking, looking for first editions and handing out with my toucan

Man-o-man, did you ever send me down a rabbit hole!!

It started with Ripley, and then somehow I wound up learning circuit board level repairs to Apple laptops (I don't even own an Apple laptop, and haven't...ever), then to the life history and musical influences of the group Radiohead, and then to the fallacies and futility of yoga pants and ultimately to the zen of being just "comfortable".

Unbelieveable!!

Fitter, happier

Comfortable
Not drinking too much
Regular exercise at the gym, three days a week
Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries
At ease
Eating well, no more microwave dinners and saturated fats
A patient, better driver
A safer car, baby smiling in back seat
Sleeping well, no bad dreams
No paranoia
Careful to all animals, never washing spiders down the plughole
Keep in contact with old friends, enjoy a drink now and then
Will frequently check credit at moral bank, hole in wall
Favours for favours, fond but not in love
Charity standing orders on sundays, ring-road supermarket
No killing moths or putting boiling water on the ants

Is this some bizarre, stream-of-conciousness post, or did you actually buy a toucan by the name of Ripley that changed your life?

ARE YOU THE MAKER OF THIS VIDEO?!?

a reply to: nightbringr

No, it's called the "interwebz". It happens when someone posts a video of something, and then you see something else which draws your attention, and then you hear something in the background of that video which makes you want to research what it was, which leads to some webpage with an Indian philosopher (blogger) who writes about the words to the song and yoga pants at the same time.
