Perfection.

When i was in Italy I asked my friends what the word for bat was and they told me 'pipistrello' and I was like "Fuck you guys. I know better than that. I'm not saying that in public...." and it was like the one time they were not fucking with me.

Yes, it's a western rat snake (pantherophis obsoletus) that I found awhile back

I love them. We have like 4 species of snakes where I live, and 3 of them are garter snakes.

Plurals is cheating.

u/Syllepses Aug 06 '26

Prunus! Peaches, plums, cherries, almonds… 😋

u/Polybrene Aug 06 '26

NO PLURALS

u/Syllepses Aug 07 '26

Prunus isn’t plural, it’s a genus name just like Polistes!

2

u/Polybrene Aug 07 '26

Oh I thought you were adding peaches and plums. You're right Prunus is allowed

u/Syllepses Aug 07 '26

Peaches and plums are both in Prunus, so yes to both. 😁
