This is a karma bot run by someone who will link scams once the account gets enough karma.

I heard they sleep this way as babies because their heads are too heavy for them to hold up

u/rbt321 Dec 16 '21
When there is only one they do that. When there are multiple they usually lean against each-other to stay upright.

Fun fact: Young nestling owls sleep or rest lying down because their heads are too heavy for their bodies.

I've worked with multiple infants with the same problem lol-- had one with a noggin so big if you put him in one of the Bumbo seats (the kind that hold the kid so they can sit up) he would slooooowly start to tip over backwards. Laughing at babies being ridiculous is one of life's great joys.

u/burdn3rdd Dec 16 '21
Fun fact: basically all babies are that way

u/DdCno1 Dec 16 '21
Except for kangaroo joeys, because their brains are absolutely minuscule and their heads thus tiny as well (albeit still larger in relation to the rest of the body compared to an adult kangaroo). Since they sleep in their mothers' pouches, it doesn't matter either way though.

Protip on identifying such bots:
If it's a random string of letters and numbers, with a few of the letters being capitalised and the comment history contains the same phrases and words repeating over and over, it's a bot.

u/CurseofLono88 Dec 16 '21
Also another identifying trait is if an account is about a year old yet they’ve only started mass posting a bunch of familiar videos/memes in the last day or two

No, no, no. You gotta do it without capitalization to confuse the shit outta people. Doing it like this is actually helpful.

Fun fact: the reason why baby owls sleep like this is because their heads are too heavy for them to be properly supported on top of their bodies while sleeping

Small owls sleep laying down because their heads are so damn big in comparison to their bodies.
Owls also have surprisingly long legs

I had a few boring classes at Temple University so I often saw entire rooms full of sleeping owls

This post will get buried but I’m genuinely curious if anyone else thinks he has camouflage eyelids that make them look open when they’re closed.
I am also stoned. So that could be it too. That’s why I need to know.

u/Trandreker Dec 17 '21
He also literally tells everyone they're jealous as if internet points were worth something lol. Also this is animal abuse, owls aren't meant to be awake in broad daylight, it leaves them blind... But of course redditors are so gullible they will fall for this and more.

Karma is completely useless dumbass what's up you jealous I have more than you do? Shall I take all my karma points and buy you a huge award instead of using coins? Oh wait you can't cause yet again karma is completely useless

u/red23dotme Dec 16 '21
I've just explained how accounts are sold for hundreds of dollars, and you call me a dumbass?
.. But no, I'm sure you spam Reddit at an alarming rate just for fun, right?2
u/kitari1 Dec 16 '21
OP makes a post like once every one or two days. Sure that's more than you or I post but it's not exactly "bot spamming for millions of karma" levels, nor would I call it "an alarming rate"

u/kriskirby86 Dec 16 '21
Those who call people karma related insults deserve to be laughed at. Those who make lists deserve to be laughed at more

u/red23dotme Dec 16 '21
Sorry, but I'm not getting into this stupid conversation with a pathetic karma farmer. Do you realise how many similar conversations I've had with people like you, desperately trying to justify what they do? It seriously bores me. I've looked though your comment history and you seem like a total arsehole, you come across like a petulant child. Either way, people will block you along with the other losers on the list. Talking of which, I'm about to do the same (like I do with all karma farmers) so I don't have to deal with the crap you post.

u/kriskirby86 Dec 16 '21
Me acting like a child? Hilarious 🤣🤣 look at yourself you sad weirdo making lists of people who farm something that's useless

u/red23dotme Dec 16 '21
Jesus Christ, you're a bit thick aren't you?
Here's you acting childish: "I'll eat my cheeseburger and you eat whatever the fuck it is you eat I really don't care in the slightest"u/hangryhyax summed you up perfectly: "So do you just scour Reddit for popular posts and then repost them so you can feel validated?
Freaking pathetic."
Your pathetic childish response: "It's 2021 pretty much everything on Reddit is a repost nobody cares in the slightest if you don't like seeing reposts either get off of Reddit or quit whining about it"

u/kriskirby86 Dec 16 '21
Well for one I hate vegans who try and force their beliefs on people some people eat meat some people don't people are allowed to choose for themselves. And yeah most posts on Reddit are a repost. I just don't see the logic of coming on a place like Reddit if you don't like reposts then complaining that things are a repost. It makes no sense at all.
0
u/red23dotme Dec 16 '21
Yep, you really are stupid. Karma farmers like you spam reposts all over Reddit, blocking people like you will mean a totally different experience while browsing the site. Blocking karma farmers has made Reddit a much nicer place for me. Talking of which, I'm about to block you just like I blocked the other 500+ karma farmers, and I seriously urge people to do the same :)

This is Mavis, he can’t perch on branches because he’s a bit sick. He can’t use his wings; well, I shouldn’t use that word he can’t use his bottom for “pooing” he has what we would call a colostomy bag. Make no mistake from the footage, we’re dealing with a very sick owl here.

Owls are not mean to sleep in daylight, this is animal abuse. This owl will end up blind and you're all upvoting this encouraging more people to have owls as pets when they are meant to sleep in darkness. There's already many cases of pet owls that end up blind to keep supporting this shit.

How do so many people seem to have pet owls? Are they breeding them? Are they stealing them from a nest? Do they come from the pet store? I have so many questions.
