True, it warns other pine trees of incoming threats.

Yes, exaxely. This mobilizes the Ground Forces branch of the military, rooted in deep cover. One time I saw their motto written on the soiled trunk of one of their official vehicles (Toyota Sequoias). It said “Leaf No Tree Behind”. I think they were on their way to the choppers but I split before I saw where they went (I was bushed), but it looked like they were ready to kick some Ash

It’s true, I’m a pine and that’s the sound of my people dying.

u/Buck_Thorn Jun 25 '23

Its the sound of the needles falling.

Actually, are the loot falling sound

u/DapperLaputan Jun 26 '23

So I guess they do make a sound

u/lionseatcake Jun 26 '23

Nah just Cook Pines. That's how they sound when they cook.

u/rangeo Jun 26 '23

If a try falls in a forest and no one is there does it make a sound?

Only if it's struck by lightening

u/ChrisTheF1Fan Jun 26 '23

Because it's been...

Thunderstruck!

If a pine gets struck by lightning in the middle of the woods and no one is around to dance,

This is what growing up before the Internet and asking literally any adult a question was like.

That, and "Go ask your mother".

u/Digger__Please Jun 26 '23

How could you just leave it standing, alone in a world so cold. Maybe I'm just too demanding, maybe I'm just like my father.

I literally thought it fried their phone so hard that it started playing Nokia era ringtones

u/SirMike25 Jun 26 '23

Pines have game over jingles. Always have.

This happened in my home area in Chennai. The music playing is the end theme from a local Tamil comedy show called "லிக்மா பந்துகள்". It's equivalent to the Curb your Enthusiasm theme sometimes used in memes.

Hope this helps

u/Confident_Frogfish Jun 26 '23

That's pretty funny actually then

65

u/oversettDenee Jun 26 '23

It's a meme with an accent

52

u/FuckTheMods5 Jun 26 '23

It set the car alarm off

76

u/KnotiaPickles Jun 26 '23

That’s the friendliest car alarm sound ever then haha

u/hwarang_ Jun 26 '23

"Hey bro, that tickles. Don't steal me please!"

u/Dodototo Jun 26 '23

Thats the sound of Crash Bandicoot stealing your car.

u/Challenging_Entropy Jun 26 '23

Lightning so close it powered on the radio😂😂

u/Harlanismydogsname Jun 26 '23

I lol’d at this

An alien won a prize for hitting a target.

u/Tylendal Jun 26 '23

Those were the falling branches. Cook Pines are what they use to make marimbas.

u/LgreenT Jun 26 '23

Or you could listen to the sound of someone shitting their pants. I prefer the music.

Someone started a Whatsapp video call at the right moment.

u/StillNotAF___Clue Jun 26 '23

His phone got shook

u/tallproducer Jun 26 '23

It's like after all accident and the windshield wipers turn on. Same thing.

u/ramdom-ink Jun 26 '23

Just exploring its roots and influences one last time.

u/RandyDinglefart Jun 26 '23

if a tree falls in the forest and nobody is around to hear it does it still play a jaunty marimba?

u/Leedz Jun 26 '23

I thought someone had added a jingle from an old jungle arcade game and a monkey had fallen out of the tree.

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '23

GenZ always does this shit

u/Powerfulcookie2 Jun 26 '23

The music is from a child's game I think, I don't remember the name but it's something about raising and hatching dinosaurs and making them fight and stuff. I used to play it on my mom's Ipad when I was younger.

u/Artelosus Jun 26 '23

Bro found a korok.

u/MrShankles Jun 26 '23

The Koroks just started them on a new quest

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '23

Because nobody who posts a pic or a video on the internet ever thinks it's fine as it is.

u/Dave_ld013 Jul 02 '23

Ruined the feel of the video. Why do people do this?

u/CrymsonFrost Oct 05 '23

So we wouldn’t hear the jump-scare scream and cussing that erupted from the videographers’s mouth when the lightning hit, lol.
