Animals / Insomnia Kangaroos Grow Up to be Nightmares

Posted by on Tue, Apr 13, 2010 at 8:08 AM

This happened to me in a dream last night, only the one with the collar was like seven feet tall and wanted to fight me. Sadly, the girl was nowhere to be found. Thanks for nothing kangaroos!

I was gonna offer to fight your kangaroo for you, but then that swimming kangaroo was about the cutest fucking thing I've seen this week. So I guess I'm voting for the kangaroo.

That was darling! I want a baby Kangaroo. Can I leave it on a street corner when it gets too big?

@3 When it gets big and unruly, merely put it on a non-stop flight to Sydney.

some background: "Their Mums were killed; i work at a vet clinic as a vet nurse and i've raised them, bella the one who jumps into the water she is my sisters and campbell (the one in the background) he's mine they were only about 500g when we got them now campbell is almost 7kg and bella is about 4. I don't own them i just raise them. they will be released to a farm when they are ready which will be pretty soon for campbell.. and they don't run away because they think i'm their mum and they don't want to leave me. ” i would pay good money to see a roo v. brissey match.

@ 6. Sure. They're going to a nice "farm."

shut your pie hole, mike. you honestly think she'd take them to a farm where they'll be killed and eaten? absolutely NOT. now, back to the cutie roos.

Usually I want to onomatopoeia-ize kangaroos with "Boing! Boing! Boing!" as I watch them jump, but these little dudes jump too quickly and are much too small for boings. I'm mentally soundtracking their jumping with "Boop boop boop boop boop boop boop!" instead.

I am seven years old and my opinions matter.

Why has LOLcats evolved into LOLdogs but not LOLroos?
(That's LOLkangaroos, not LOLrus.)

I'd actually like to see what could be done with LOLrus. However, that is a challenge far too daunting for myself.

It was tough taking my eyes off of the other cutie to look at the baby kangaroos.
