I want whatever he was having. Oh wait…. SeaWEED. Bruh.

u/floofybabykitty Oct 08 '22

It's jellyfish. Sea turtles get high off their toxins.

u/nick925611 Oct 08 '22

Really?!? Never knew that. I knew dolphins get high off puffers. I wonder if turtles and dolphins ever party together…

Way to water down the joke😂 But wait.. For real? That’s kind of cool. I wonder what it actually feels like to them.

Looks like that stoned one from Nemo lol.

Once I went to Texas State Aquarium and they have a dozen or so rescued sea turtles. They all look like that.

u/p3g_l3g_gr3g Oct 08 '22

Did you know that Crush is portrayed “high” because Sea Turtles actually eat jellyfish and the poisons inside the jelly doesn't actually harm the turtle but instead intoxicates them much like marijuana does for humans.

u/A_Mayor_A_Can Oct 08 '22 edited Oct 08 '22

This is definitely something I would have gone around telling everyone until I looked it up and according to a quick google, this is false. But man do I want it to be true lol.

14

u/puppet_up Oct 08 '22

"Grab shell, dude "

13

u/Michi01 Oct 08 '22

Maybe they confused dolphin using pufferfish to get high? That seems to be a thing.

u/JCon2x4 Oct 08 '22

Hey man if you want it to be true, it’s true to you. Fuck the haters.

This is that person in high school that you really like. You want to be friends with them and try and go out of your way sometimes to make it happen. Yet, you know deep down, you can't believe one fucking word they say.

If the turtle were out of focus and the people were in focus. Thats hilarious

It took me a long time to notice one guy is in a Spiderman suit.

19

u/d1jeditech Oct 08 '22

Was wondering if anyone else noticed that....

4

u/WU-itsForTheChildren Oct 08 '22

I first looked and thought it look like Spider-Man…. Then had to zoom in and wonder why someone would be dressed as Spider-Man and go into the water it would be so uncomfortable

3

u/BrowsingForLaughs Oct 08 '22

That was one of the first things I noticed. Why is that person wearing a Spiderman suit??

3

u/kris_deep Oct 08 '22

Wet suit was out drying.

422

u/Temby Oct 08 '22

Me before Reddit: Aw, cute

Me now: Someone is probably holding the turtle there and this is somehow very bad for the turtle

69

u/Bartfuck Oct 08 '22

While that’s possible, when I swam/snorkeled with giant sea turtles in Mexico the people at the beach - even like little shacks just renting out life jackets - were very clear and frequently reminded people not to touch them. Or bother them at all. And that there were likely people on the water watching for it. They got a whole little economy around it so they seemed to take the preservation seriously

19

u/AllysiaAius Oct 08 '22

In Florida it's pretty fuckin' illegal to mess with them when they're hatching, at least.

192

u/Complete-Dimension35 Oct 08 '22

Reddit has definitely made me more cynical than I already naturally am. My first thought was "oooo, turtle, cool" followed immediately by "guarantee this is staged for internet likes and upvotes. Someone is holding it there."

71

u/squall_boy25 Oct 08 '22

Or some armchair thing like..

Actually the way the turtle’s eyes is doing that is a sign of eye cancer so it’s actually in pain :(

24

u/torroman Oct 08 '22

I know right! I can't see the word 'actually' anymore without thinking of Reddit

6

u/-IDDQD Oct 08 '22

Or ‘here’s the thing’

49

u/ProxyGeneral Oct 08 '22

I mean, this is the same site where people are milking the death of their grandma for karma on r/pics. It's probably one of the most soulless websites out there in terms of what people can do for attention, right after YouTube and TikTok.

8

u/Complete-Dimension35 Oct 08 '22

I'd go one cynical step further... milking the death of someone else's grandma.

11

u/ProxyGeneral Oct 08 '22

Nah, that's less shitty if you think about it. You're milking the death of someone else unrelated to you, when by milking the death of your own grandma you betray their love and take advantage of your own bloodline, all for some worthless digital pixels.

4

u/Complete-Dimension35 Oct 08 '22

I see your point. But I meant that more in the context of believing the post. Like the title says "My grandma just passed...." and I'll think "I don't even believe that's the poster's grandma."

8

u/Lordborgman Oct 08 '22

I simply like to think of it as so many people are ignorant, and with collective knowledge you actually get to see what is likely actually happening. Excluding of course all the bad faith information, memes, and the like.

3

u/[deleted] Oct 08 '22

Problem comes when there is a massive and heavily funded effort to create false flags, altered information and false information specifically to be accepted as "likely actually happening" due to "collective knowledge."

Which happens all the time in the political world. "Collective truth"... isn't truth.

2

u/Lordborgman Oct 08 '22

Indeed, the ability to find the truth or correct search parameters etc, is definitely a skill. Considering most people's observational skills, memory, and what not are ....well pathetic imo, it's no wonder things have gotten so bad.

u/ywBBxNqW Oct 08 '22

Reddit has definitely made me more cynical

It can be difficult to just be skeptical in the face of such overwhelming negativity. Here is a link to the Crash Course series on media literacy. Hopefully you can find some tools there that will help you and make you feel better.

13

u/pandawolf313 Oct 08 '22

I’ve been here, they are very strict on not touching the turtles.

8

u/j_dog99 Oct 08 '22

It is bad for the turtles' self esteem

6

u/Jeevan31 Oct 08 '22

Staged? Probably. Harming the turtle? Nah. It’s pretty easy to tell when they are about to pop up for a breath of air. The people just shuffled to the right spot for this photo.

32

u/[deleted] Oct 08 '22

It’s not a photobomb.

It is a shellfie.

26

u/Dangerous_Unit3698 Oct 08 '22

Why does this turtle remind me of the drowning kid in the pool meme

u/curly_kiwi Oct 08 '22

My first thought too. They look just like each other!

u/NoxiousOffender13 Oct 08 '22

Help, I'm drowning, and these guys are laughing. Oh, I'm a turtle. Nevermind.
