That’s interesting, I’m having a hard time picturing their diaphragm.
What diaphragm?
Uhh, they should have covered this in school even if your parents neglected to do so, but here you go.
I'm sure this is a woosh. Let me rephrase the thread.
I had the same kneejerk reaction to the comment, until I checked the link. OP could have worked on their setup a bit better, and is doing themselves no favours by doubling down on it
Wtf, dude, I fucking lol’d at your joke, and I’m just floored at all the subsequent downvotes. I’m so sorry, I really only meant to trigger a fun conversation but something else happened… 🤷♂️😅
They're saying snakes do not have diaphragms.
Ed: it's their own alt, they could have just said that and not reveled in the drama they caused but whatever.
Access mostly relates to socioeconomic factors, but you’re largely correct. Use is notably higher in more affluent areas, but snakes are largely homeless and unsupported through reproductive legislation so that rarely matters.
These snakes both lay and eat eggs, so they can get abortion with breakfast.
I think I’ll leave the snake jokes to you. That was really good
