Thanks, because I didn’t quite get it either. Plus, I’m always happy to hear Dreams, even a snippet. As proven true by my 10-year-old immediately starting to sing along when he heard it. I said, “Oh, you know this meme?” He said, “No, I just know that song because you’ve been singing it my whole life.” Oh, right. :joy:

I am always happy to explain a meme! Referential humor can be fun but I also hate excluding people haha, so I’m thrilled to provide as requested!

The red check of whatever wiki how this came from is alarming to me.
Red = incorrect.
But check = correct??
AH.

Also I would do that to McConnell. Yes.

It confused me as well. However, it was also sent to me by my very colorblind husband :joy: I decided to roll with it. But I defffffinitely had the same question. “Color says stop. Shape says go. Why??”

Can someone explain the joke to me? I’m not getting it.

Do we really want to stoop to his level with what I’m assuming is water torture? No? I didn’t think so. (I’m not sure if I’m reading this right because it is a semi-aquatic animal…)

Ooo. I read it as more like spray bottle “no” treatment. If I mis-read the situation, I can remove what I wrote.

Spray bottle treatment makes so much more sense since it’s a tortoise. Line = blurry :thinking:

How I read it was just. It’s a picture from a how to wash a turtle wiki how (presumably- art style and keeping turtles clean being part of their care). And thus a joke since people compare Mitch to a turtle. I can remove it if it makes anyone uncomfortable though.

Presumably this was not the correct way to wash the turtle :rofl:

Now I feel like I need to check wiki how and brush up on my turtle husbandry :joy: you never know when you’ll be called upon to wash a pet turtle.

I have edited my response! Thanks for explaining for me. I also now want to watch pictures of turtles and tortoises enjoying their bathtime.
