Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Wyoming resident here. Every one knows that a bear will kill you in an instant, but if you're up here for the summer, for the love of god please stay away from moose. Moose get really territorial, they are almost as tall as a house, and they will fuck your shit up. Moose are chill, until they are not.

PS: Don't approach bison (buffalo), or any wildlife, in Yellowstone you big fuckin' dummy.

I went to Yellowstone a couple of years ago, and about a month or two after I came home, some idiot tried to get up close and personal with a bison standing near a building (to get pictures) and ended up with a shattered spine.

Is this Darwinism?

What are the odds of this comment being a deliberate As Told By Ginger reference?

Now you're going to tell me that bison is singular even though it has bi for two in it

It says fight not win a fight. I could probably get a kick or something in as I’m being torn apart

Everyone can ______, but only once.

Verbal probably counts. "Fuck you, bear!" should be enough to qualify

Edit: nope, I'm illiterate. It literally says "hand-to-paw" combat. Guess you're catching a paw, buddy.

P.S. to my edit
I had a substitute teacher in the ~~third~~ fourth grade who told my class about a class trip she took to Yellowstone. She said that while on the trip, her best friend got mauled by a bear. She told us that it took one swipe at her and she was dead or completely unresponsive and then it started wrestling her like a rag-doll. Thus began my lifelong fear of bears.

Not only is that a horrible thing to happen to a child on a class trip, it’s a horrible thing to tell a room full of nine year olds. My grandmother told me a graphic story about a roommate who lost an eye that has haunted me since.

Also, your edit made me wonder if I’m fundamentally dishonest, because it literally wouldn’t even occur to me to correct myself from the third to fourth grade while retelling an anecdote, even in person to close friends, unless it were about something with a date attached. I just figure that approximations are a part of life and it’s not that important, but I’m now asking myself if that’s the sort of thing I should correct and if I’ve been unintentionally (ish?) lying to everyone.

Edit: as evidence, I realized that I fucking did it in this comment. It was a nun at the convent my grandmother lived in for a while, and they were similar ages, so they were friends. That’s a complicated relationship for a throwaway comment and it creates space for a lot of follow up questions, so I streamlined it to roommate.
