If snails did have tears with salt in them, the salt would already be in their body, meaning he'd already be dead.

Yes, and lions and dinosaurs can't talk, but this is a community where we post silly comic strips so maybe chill out with the fact-checking my dude?

It's a cool fun fact regardless of whether it's relevant to comedic value

IDK...you have some pretty strong hydrochloric acid in your stomach that's not dissolving you, but im pretty sure it would melt you if i dipped you in a vat of it.

Grim. Have a great day, and may you stub your toe on a roomba.

Wait, you're Mirror Stamets?

Does that mean you need the fancy eye drops?

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Only if I'm in the Prime Universe. Everything is naturally darker in the mirror universe.

Is it basically pitch black there these days, then?

Despite being believed by many slugs smiling doesn't actually prevent you from crying

[–] Brunbrun6766@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A comma makes this two very different sentences.

Despite being believed by many, slugs smiling doesn't actually prevent you from crying

Or

Despite being believed by many slugs, smiling doesn't actually prevent you from crying

Slugs smiling would absolutely prevent me from crying. (At least from sadness, it might be so beauriful I cry because of that though)

I'm getting major Spuds Macenzie vibes here. Alternate backstory?

Good morning to you, too.
