This is how I imagine half this sub spends their nights, the other half are sobbing at a 47 page scientific papers incorrect usage of the word "disambiguation"

Disambiguate it for us. We don’t know what it means.

I worked at a pet store in college. There was a really chill baby king snake there that I’d hang out with when I was working the cash register. He’d loop around my neck and just hang out like a little snake necklace for hours. Scared the shit out of a few customers who thought he was a piece of jewelry until he moved 😅

Aw man I wish I could've hung out with animals when I worked cash

Too busy serving them instead aye.

Edit: I realise this can go two ways. I’m implying that the customers are animals. Not that you worked serving up food.

Yyyup, that's the smile of a woman who wears bats as necklaces.

This is just me, but bats give me the creeps so this is a personal nightmare IRL

I used to intern at a wildlife sanctuary and I used to stick baby raccoons on me like velcro and walk around while I clean their enclosures and stuff.

Not exactly the same, but my wife and I are babysitting our daughter's guinea pig, and she needed to clean his pen last night so asked me to hold him.

He was so gloriously chill. He just sat with me eating a carrot and watching TV.

Here I was thinking it was a small skunk before reading fully 🙂
