It’s kind of still a laugh track because they have big illuminated signs telling the audience when to laugh.

It’s too cringe to watch with the laugh track too. It’s too cringe to watch.
Most scavengers will gladly accept an easy meal, just like chickens will gobble up little bugs they see on the ground without giving it a second thought.
Neither!
These lived on 1800 acres of wild land. They normally only saw people when we were driving past to get to the ranch house, or when me and my buddy were hiking. Twice a year they were rounded up, branded, counted, and either sold off or let go.
They were rounded up old Western style, by cowboys on horseback, and driven into the pens by the ranch house. It was actually an amazing experience getting to be a part of that as a teenager and young man.
My friend and I would go exploring all over those hills in the summer time, and that’s when the murder cows caught us in the open a few times. Most of the cows didn’t care, but there were a few that we knew by site to run from if we happened upon them. So we’d skedaddle over near a tree or back to the truck if it was close and hope the cow would just wander off and do cow things. It usually just gave us angry looks and bluffs, but a few times it charged us and drove us up the tree. One time we were tree’ed, and were able to scare it off by firing our guns into the air. Good times.
At my last job they assigned one of those to me and never told me. I had already been there about a year when I discovered it. I had like 500 voicemails. Haha.
I greatly prefer messaging, but sometimes I call because it’ll take me 5 minutes to talk on the phone and 25 minutes to get it all hashed out through texts.
Oh yes. Cow body language is very different when they’re curious and when they intend to cause you harm. These ones wanted us wiped from the face of the earth, or at least wiped from their line of sight.
Edit: I should point out that these were free range beef cattle in the foothills, so they’re a lot less friendly than your average dairy cow. They would only see people a few times per year, and they never liked what they got when people came around, so they likely had pretty negative associations with humans.
I grew up visiting my friend’s family’s cattle ranch all the time. The mean ones up there were cows, not bulls. There were a couple that you didn’t want to get caught in the open with. I was chased up a tree a few times. Some cows just want to see the world burn.
Not really, man. Cows are like people, some of them are just assholes. Cows kill hundreds of people every year. If you don’t know a cow’s temperament, don’t put yourself where it can kill you.
Eh, it comes at a cost of only seeing the sun for like 2-3 months per year.
I would if I could!
My city has more water than we can ever use, so I’m going to continue having shower thoughts, tyvm.
It’s so beautiful today! I’m wearing shorts and flip flops for the first time in months, and I started working on my bike again now that we may have a period without rain for a while.
Haha. Dubai had success with cloud seeding recently. But they forgot that they’re a desert without adequate drainage or runoff, and flooded their whole city.
This is my favorite bit on that subject:
I am in the US and this is the first I’ve heard of it. I thought it was just a hypothetical question until I started reading the comments.
It’s like making fun of someone for liking sunshine
At the risk of completely derailing the conversation, I’ve met a lot of people in the PNW who don’t like warm weather or sunshine. When summer rolls around they start complaining about it being too sunny and want the grey skies back. Frickin weirdos!
Trying to overthrow a court and Congress sanctioned vote of the people to retain power is most certainly a personal act.
