  My interpretation:

  Bird: The standard Birb: Bird being silly Borb: bird but fat Blorb: Bird but holy damn he’s even fatter

    I think borb is just a species with fluffy feathers. Blorb is fat, though.

    Get with the times - apparently we are past that, and it is borbs that aren’t real

  Are there really herpetologists saying “don’t say snek”?

  • ViperActual@sh.itjust.works ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    I’m not a hero, but I sometimes refer to them as a snekeroni

    According to my ssss-sources, the preferred nomenclature is ‘danger noodle’.

    source

    • RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

      Danger noodle is for non venemous and nope rope is for venemous

    That would surprise me, also. But it takes all kinds. Maybe the average ornithologist tends to think that birds are “cute”, while the average herpetologist tends to think that reptiles are “cool”? I’m sure that whatever the group as a whole tends to think, there will be many counterexamples.

    I was just thinking about chess, and how one of the most famous chess players, Hikaru Nakamura often refers to chess pieces as “juicers”, for whatever reason… maybe the shape? Lots of people have nicknames for different pieces, like “ops” for “bishops”, etcetera. But then there are some who take themselves entirely seriously, and never joke around.

    I only know one and he seemed to find it amusing but ultimately didn’t really care.

  I’m really digging BLORB.

  • brbposting@sh.itjust.works ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Clearly a rare sighting

    reverse image search for blorb does not return REAL blorb but it’s okay

    … Can we get a Blorb with an Orb, pondering?

  I was expecting the last frame to say “American Borb”.
