[Video description: video of a herd of shaven alpacas surrounding a hedgehog that is walking through their pasture. the alpacas are very curious, and lean in to get a closer look at the hedgehog. a few of them manage to touch their nose to the hedgehog, and is surprised by the hedgehog’s spikiness. the hedgehog is unbothered by the curious audience and calmly makes their way through the pasture, with the alpacas carefully following them. there is no discernible audio. /end video description]

The cool thing is, there’s still one person missing: Lyudmila Pavlichenko.
She was one of the deadliest snipers of World War II, and is regarded as one of the deadliest snipers of all time. Over the course of one year (June 1941-June 1942) she racked up a count of 309 kills, 36 of which were enemy snipers. Her prescence in the picture alone would have brought the total number of kills from 755 to 1064.
Goddamn.
Icons.
Every one of them.
Sorry I was speeding, officer. I was listening to Mumford and Sons and the banjo solo came on.
A while back I heard my friend (male) insult another dude by saying, “You look like the kind of guy who wouldn’t go to Wal-Mart to buy his girlfriend a box of tampons” and I still think about that crowning insult sometimes
My dad once called another guy “someone who thinks loading the dishwasher once in a while makes him less of a man”
I like your dad already
one time my dad’s boss was giving him shit for always leaving work early so he could get home and help my mom with me when i was a newborn and his boss said “i’ve never changed a diaper in my life” really proudly and my dad responded “i’d be ashamed to ever admit i was that worthless of a husband”
oh WOW
This is by far my most popular post.
