minus-squaredangercake@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up25arrow-down3·edit-229 days agoCan we all agree to use “Sashayed in” rather than “hatched”?
minus-squareJerkface (any/all)@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up27·29 days agoHe’s still more tortoise than he is gay.
minus-squaredream_weasel@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·edit-229 days agoThat’s probably true. But like, by weight? Surface area? Gay actions per hour vs tortoise actions per hour? Hard to nail down.
minus-squarecorsicanguppy@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·29 days agoDon’t nail tortoises down. They reeeeally hate that.
minus-squaredream_weasel@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·29 days agoWell then they shouldn’t slowly walk all over the place!
minus-squareJerkface (any/all)@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·29 days agoBy the degree his life would change were that aspect of him to change.
minus-squaredream_weasel@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·29 days agoAh yep. His life would be significantly more different if he stopped being a tortoise.
minus-squareJerkface (any/all)@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·28 days agoHonestly, it’s debatable whether a blind tortoise with no sense of smell is expressing homosexuality just because they seek sexual gratification with an object that happens to be male. He might also fuck rocks.

minus-squareblazeknave@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-229 days agoI want to like this bc I’m almost genx, but I think it’s sexist? What am I supposed to do in 2025?
minus-squaredangercake@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·29 days agoOh you don’t stop now, you sashay harder. For all of us.
