Maximum borb.
This is what we need more of in the world. Blorbs for president of earth!!
Brilliant articles, thanks - written by someone completely conversant in both birds and internet culture, with a sense of humour but also communicating bird facts and including citations for things like why round things are cuter.
My interpretation:
Bird: The standard
Birb: Bird being silly
Borb: bird but fat
Blorb: Bird but holy damn he’s even fatter
I think borb is just a species with fluffy feathers. Blorb is fat, though.
blorbo: GYATT
Bord
Buort
Are there really herpetologists saying “don’t say snek”?
According to my ss-ss-sources, the preferred nomenclature is ‘danger noodle’.
Danger noodle is for non venemous and nope rope is for venemous
I thought danger noodle is for venomous, nope rope for constrictors, and snek for anything else
That would surprise me, also. But it takes all kinds. Maybe the average ornithologist tends to think that birds are “cute”, while the average herpetologist tends to think that reptiles are “cool”? I’m sure that whatever the group as a whole tends to think, there will be many counterexamples.
I was just thinking about chess, and how one of the most famous chess players, Hikaru Nakamura often refers to chess pieces as “juicers”, for whatever reason… maybe the shape? Lots of people have nicknames for different pieces, like “ops” for “bishops”, etcetera. But then there are some who take themselves entirely seriously, and never joke around.
I’m not a herp, but I sometimes refer to them as a snekeroni
I only know one and he seemed to find it amusing but ultimately didn’t really care.
Good lord the blorb.
What a well fed pigeon.
Man, I dunno if you’ve heard,
BUT THE BIRD IS THE WORD
BA BA BA BA BA BA OOH MAH MOW MOW
OOH MOW MAH MOW
WELL DON’T YOU KNOW, ABOUT THE BIRD
WELL EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT THE BIRD IS THE WORD
Pondering my blorb
Bouba and blouba
I’m really digging BLORB.
The eye really sells it
Clearly a rare sighting
… Can we get a Blorb with an Orb, pondering?
yes, I will sketch that. If i forget about it, please ping me here
Huzzah!
Probst! … … ?
Is… does it make sense to say ‘Probst’ outside of a drinking context?
… its been a long time since I’ve gone drinking with Germans, lol.
They do ponder. The orb let’s them know, that you are indeed right, and “Prost” only is said when drinking. The orb has not yet told them how to translate “cheers” into German.
Ah, I love them!
Good work!
Birb’s aren’t real
Get with the times - apparently we are past that, and it is borbs that aren’t real
O-o-o, so sciency!
I was expecting the last frame to say “American Borb”.
