Comment on Would you rather have a pet dinosaur or a pet dragon?
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoSimple dragons are just snakes with bowel obstructions so the pigeon they ate fermented and then a peasant stepped on it at night (so they were carrying a torch) and it popped and the fumes made a teensy boom. That’s how people invented dragons ipso facto oceans 11s razor.

First iteration of the myth was rats but then I remembered dragons have wings and they probably got scared by the pop, came back a year later and found the pigeon wings in the snake skeleton. Rats got no wings.
