wouldn't they have to climb over the cart you rode in?

i mean, i'm sure it's not a problem. bears are agile climbers.

Even easier: they're imaginary bears, just imagine then outside the corral.

Ah, I see the problem: I'm imagining real bears. I need to imagine imaginary bears.

If you don't have an imagination within your own imaginations or the imaginations of others, it's time to expand the realm of endless possibilities within your very own imagination!!!!!

[–] schipelblorp@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

And I do this through the power of imagination presumably?

[–] brem@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

With the power of imagination, anything is possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!¡!!!!¡!!!!!¡!!!
