It's always a wooden ball isn't it? Never a plastic car or a tiny compass. I blame the French πŸ˜€

You need to open the ball. Otherwise the toys would be all greasy. How many have you tossed out? Smh

Holy shit, your comment is a month old. I scrolled waaay too far

Stick toothpicks in it, set it in a glass of water, let it root and plant it. They make nice trees.

A well-endowed avocado

That’s why you don’t buy round avocados.

It's the variety of avocado. I can't tell them enough apart from the outside to know which ones are which.

Why is the pit so large!?

[–] Waitnwallflower@beige.party 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

That's how I feel when I buy plums expecting them to be red inside and they're yellow. I don't like the yellow ones. I like the red ones. You probably expected to have some avocado flesh inside that.

:blobcat_thisisfine: Costco has gone too far!
I hope the rest of your avocados were actually real.

man inflation really is everywhere :blobfoxcry2:

[–] aka_quant_noir@hcommons.social 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yeah, where's the other half?
