Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.

While talking to a colleague about how I recently learned most people have never been sat on by a seagull it came up that she has never been sat on by a lizard. Like, not even once during childhood.

Another colleague admitted they also have never been sat on by a lizard.

My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life been sat on by a lizard.

Have you ever been sat on by a lizard?

Please boost for scientific accuracy.

Yes
No

@datarama Sat upon, shat upon, and bitten, all by lizard.

@sasutina13 Same here, though only one bite.

(A little young leopard gecko, right after I'd handled his food. He thought my pinky looked like the Mother of All Mealworms, apparently. But he very quickly let go once he realized his mistake. The bite felt sort of like being landed on by a medium-size fly.)

@datarama Alligator lizards and blue-bellies were mine... I probably smelled like food.

@sasutina13 I currently have a blue-tongue skink (adult male Northern) who has a very strong aversion towards opening his mouth at humans. He *never* bites.

Given what I hear from people who have been bitten by that species, I am very happy about this.
