SharkEatingBreakfast[OC] A car ran up the curb, into my yard, and stopped in front of my living room window.
whodatdairGlad you and your lizard are safe!
Thank you! We were pretty fortunate this time.
Peter1986CWas that driver under influence?
Nevertheless, interesting photo.
They were definitely on grass.
Get out of here. Also, take my upvote while you’re leaving. (Nice pun i really appreciated it)
(I’m glad you did, because I hated it, haha.)
Texting and driving, I think. Please do not check/use your phone while driving!
They hit someone else & proceeded to drive frantically up the curb. I’m very fortunate they stopped short of my home!
I regard being on the phone while driving, as practically being “under influence”. I mean there are some surprisingly similar symptoms…
And indeed, a good thing they stopped before hitting your place.
Speaking for a friend, they crashed the Mini Clubman S I love… sorry, THEY loved very much because of a WhatsApp that just arrived.
Learn from my errrem friend, don’t look at your phone while driving, even for a very short time.
Damage on the Mini was more than its worth at the time.
AcernumTime to buy a boulder to go in front of the window
How much does a boulder go for nowadays?
I know a guy with a really nice boulder. Unfortunately it’s in the swamp.
Try to cheat Death and piss off the gods for a free one with unlimited warranty.
You must deal with the delivery yourself though.
I’m sure someone will find a way to drive right over / through them.
drktThey’ll make a bigger car to drive over it
He just wanted to check out your lizard
There are better ways to do it that don’t involve a phone call to the police, I assure you!
It is important that the cops also know about this cool lizard I found
911 look at this dude 😎
That’s one little chunky boy.
He puffed up at all the commotion! Gotta look big and scary at the big noise.
credit crazyLizard is looking at the camera like you seeing this shit
Bearded dragons absolutely have a knack for stupid reaction faces!
I was eating at a restaurant one time with some people from out of town when a car drove past the window. Nobody really seemed to interested when I pointed it out until I also pointed out that there is not a road outside that window. The car had jumped the curb, threaded the needle between a stop sign and fire hydrant, and made it about 80 feet through the park before stopping. The cops were still dealing with the guy when I left the restaurant, he was clearly very inebriated.
Was looking at you post and this crazy incident popped up on my phone: apnews.com/…/long-island-minivan-nail-salon-crash…
Long Island: Minivan slams into nail salon, killing 4 and injuring 9
A fire official says a minivan has slammed into a Long Island nail salon, killing four people and injuring 9. The vehicle came to a stop inside the Hawaii Nail & Spa store about 4:40 p.m. Friday. Lt. Kevin Heissenbuttel says all of those killed and injured were inside the salon at the time. He said it was not immediately clear whether the crash was accidental or intentional Investigators were on the scene into the evening. Photos from the scene showed a gaping hole in the storefront located in a strip mall.
Well
This makes me extra thankful.
At first I read cat and I spent a few minutes looking for the kitty.
I gotchu
Tell your kitty I love him.
He responded with a confused head tilt and licked a cardboard tube.
I apparently don’t speak cat very well, so interpret that how you will.
Meow am cat gib food pls x
I love your cat
Glad your scaly friend is OK!
Am I the only one who sees an alien trapped in your curtains?!
I looked quickly and that’s what the pattern looks like with the way your curtains fall 😅
You okay? How many fingers am I holding up?
12? 😅 lol, it’s literally the first thing I saw
Listen: if the alien can’t manage to get out of some curtains, they were not meant for this world.
I didn’t the first time, but I did after reading your comment.
I thought it looked like a stealthy power ranger
Yo what the fuck how did they end up doing that?!
Distracted driving & running a stop sign!
Well that’s fucking inexcusable isn’t it holy shit. Glad everyone was alright! Looks like a near miss for the ol’ house there bud
Adopt it
I try to leave nature in the wild where it belongs. 🙏
I wish we could reduce the natural habitat of those disgusting creatures
photonic_sorcererI hope you mean the car
I do lol
Same. Invasive species. Ick!
Loving all that natural light and those plants! Hey, quick BD question. Has yours ever pooped on its own back? My now deceased dragon, once pooped on his own back, and I have no idea how, but I’ve heard from others that they are messy poopers.
Their poop can be pretty nasty, to be sure. Never pooped on his own back directly, but he has done things like walk through it, or fall off his basking platform into it. It’s absolutely possible that your dragon fell into it while climbing.
To be fair, if he poops in his enclosure, my dragon will run away from it and frantically claw at the glass (also called glass-surfing) until I clean it up. He HATES having poop in his enclosure!
Ya, I wanted to run away from it too, so I don’t blame him lol
How do you deal with the lizard poop? Does it just poop everywhere?
He has his own enclosure, too! But poop really isn’t as issue. They telegraph pretty clearly when they’re about to poop. They’ll move around more frantically before they do, do the classic slight tail lift + butt wiggle, and then decimate everything let it all out. If you’re paying attention, you’ll usually catch them before they stink up your floors.
Water actually triggers their poop reflex, too! So owners often soak their dragons in the tub to have them poop before letting them roam.
RetrogradeCan you train them to poop in specific areas or is it just a crap shoot?
I personally prefer interesting creatures over vehicular trespassing, so it’s understandable.
Bearded dragons typically only poop every few days or even once a week! So it’s not like a daily thing, unless there’s something going on with their health or they’ve drank/eaten more than usual (they WILL try to eat as many insects as possible, if given the opportunity!). Plus, it’s not like a dog-sized poop or anything, but it is pretty loose and nasty, admittedly.
They can’t really be trained to poop in specific places, which is why a lot of owners use the bathtub method. Just fill up the tub/container a bit with warm water (usually it’s enough so that they are submerged up to the base of their tail), put your dragon in, and within a few seconds to minutes, you have a freshly emptied dragon! Just drain/dump the poopy water, and you don’t have to worry about poop on your floors, blankets, yourself, etc.!
You have to be happy for the little things in life like a car not smashing through your conservatory.
Have you given thanks that your home hasn’t been run into by a car today? 🙏
Everybody is talking about the lizard but what about the dough (clay?) with the lamp directed at it??
that’s for the lizard? xD
That’s a flat rock used for basking! It’s supposed to be a bit more off-center from the heat lamp so that it doesn’t get too hot, but he loves to flatten out/pancake on a warm rock.
Awe :) you’re a good lizard owner
