That will be so much fun. The dog would literally become men's best friend.
Yes! Maybe other animals too. I could ask the squirrels why they insist on running across the road
We would be Dr. Doolittle Or why they keep nuts in their mouths all the time
Haha, that movie was  great. Or why they heckle birdfeeders
I picture that if they do have the ability of talking then we might also be able to identify their personalities. It will be as living in the movie Madagascar. Or Planet of the Apes. Oh, maybe that isn't good. -hehe
Yeaah. Probably not...I could live with the Madagascar. Hm, I wonder what all those city pigeons are like Would they're personalities be like they're normally protrayed?
They are like: "we know all the secrets"
"We've seen so much"
"We are the true mafia. And we'll confiscate all your bread." (mysterious look added) I wonder the same, would their personalities be as the ones shown in the media?
Haha. Good one. I don't know. Would they be smarter? Or....dumber....more dumb?
They might be the same with the ability of becoming smarter.  I guess.
Huh. That's a good point. Will speech give animals the ability to widen their range? They might have more life motivation other than "survival".
Speech is communication, so they send and receive communications that will add to what they have. It should enlarge their intelligence.
Haha. I'm imagining my friend's pets enlarging their intelligence. They're already so devious
My question now is, how would they behave with their eating habits? Because they are carnivorous and vegetarians  omnivorous and maybe it is because they can't communicate.
Oh yeah, communication across species. That might change some things. But it is also about anatomy
hehehe - That would be funny
Some teeth were made to eat certain things.
I just think about humans. Let's say that humans couldn't communicate and were left to learn on themselves. What did they eat? How did we developed our eating habits? We get to choose what we want to eat. By the way, I just remembered the part from the movie Sing and the sloth telling a joke
What do you call a camel with two humps?
a bactrian camel?
Pregnant! OK, wait. Did you actually remember that joke?
hehehehe
OK good.
No I didn't know it
Wait. But you asked about it...from the movie...I am thoroughly confused.
It's that the joke? I didn't remember. I just remember the scene was hilarious
Best part was that he had to tell everyone other sloth in the bank the same joke. "Flash flash, hundred yard dash!"
hehehe. You liked the movie too
Yep. We watched it about a million times when we went to visit family over the summer. And now we own it.
It's a great movie.
Definitely.
Do you know any other animal's joke? How does a dog stop a video?
How so?
He presses the paws bottom.
Haha, nice!
Ho do you make a goldfish old?
Do tell.
Take away the "g"!
OK, one of those literal word ones. I see what you did there *squinty look* What do you call a cold donkey?
That's as many as I new what do you call it? *knew
A burr-ito!
hehehehehe that is a good one
...actually, I feel like there was another part to that joke... Eh, oh well. What do you get when you mix a shark with a snowman?
what do you get?
Frostbite
he he he  he he I had to think on that one - hehehe
I have a story joke about an pig. Do you feel like hearing that one?
Of course
Disclaimer: this is a dad joke so..expect things OK. So once there was a traveler who decided to stop at a barn for the night. He knocked on the door and as he was waiting, he saw a pig with a peg leg run by. The farmer opens the door, lets him in and sits him down for dinner. While they're eating the traveler asks: "I couldn't help noticing your pig. Why does it have a peg leg?" The farmer replied: "That pig? Oh, that pig is sooo special! Once, I was trapped under the tractor? Pig came and raised it up with one hoof! That is one special pig!" The travel was confused. "But sir, why does it have a peg leg?" The farmer continued. "That pig is so specal! Once, there was a house fire. Pulled us all out of it, saved our lives that pig did."
why does it have a peg leg?
Sorry. My computer shut off. It's alive now.
No problem.
OK. So the traveler is still really confused. "But...sir! Why does that pig have a peg leg?" The farmer gives the man the "duh" look and says: "Well pig that special, can't eat all at once."
Ouch! That is one funny joke. I wasn't expecting that Pigs are certainly special. They are the dirtiest farm animals I know and they still taste so good.
That's...wow, that's actually true. How ironic. Yeah, you learn not to expect anything from pigs. Now, you have to be honest: Were you grossed out by that joke? I've been trying to figure out what kind of people laugh at that one. And most of my friends have given me weird looks. They are majority girls.
I found it comical. No judgment. It's an unexpected turn, and because we were telling jokes I found it funny. But maybe if we weren't on a joking setting I may have think differently. But then again, it was funny I guess it's all about delivering the joke, and you did great
Thank you. Much different than in real life.
Do you like telling stories? I'm not very good at it. I am more of those that start telling a joke and laugh before finishing
I love telling stories! Though, honestly, more better at writing them than telling them. Haha, my friend can't keep a poker face either.
hehe I enjoy good stories. However, now that I think about it all, I realized that TV has taken that away, at least in my life. Storytelling used to be a great skills to have. Very useful for parents I might add
Oh yeah. TV. Drainer of Time and Prince of Procrastination. Story telling definitely comes in handy with babysitting, for sure.
I read once that watching TV can literally shut down your brain. I mean, no thinking whatsoever
Ooh, that's another one: King of Cranium Cancellation
Great titles
Thank you. I try
There is a story behind those titles. King of Cranium Cancellation and his plan to conquer humanity Drainer of Time. That is so accurate makes me think twice about watching tv
Think twice. But not like it's going to change anything right?...
maybe not. hehehe
Truth.
But I don't watch much TV either. Busy busy with school, work, and family I am one to select a TV show on Netflix and just watch too "kill time," or as background when cleaning
Just random shows? Or any specific genres. Oh, the joys of cleaning. Yeah, I usually have background noise for that too
Makes cleaning more entertaining And yes, mostly mystery or comedy I do like police/law shows But I do enjoy, very much, the BBC Mystery Series do you have a particular genre you like?
Adventure/fantasy Though I'm finding that I enjoy sci-fi
which show is making you interested in sci-fi?
Well, not really show. Movies mostly. Like Arrival and AI
haven seen them I like science, and enjoy learning chemistry and physics, but never got a taste for Sci-fi genre Maybe I don't know how to read or interpret the movie. Would you say that it is better to read a book or watching the movie?
Chemistry and physics. Whole hearted props to you. I am so bad at physics Eh, depends on the book. Or movie
Mmm... Let's say The Chronicles of Narnia. Book or Movie?
Well, I've only read the Lion and the Witch and the Wardrobe *sheepish cough* but the movie was better It's an awesome world, but it was kind of slow and...almost too happy.
Lord of the Rings, Book or Movie? oohh.... This one. Harry Potter, Book or Movie? This last one is so tricky for me.
Oh no. You're asking the hard questions.
hehe
Was that an evil laugh? OK. LOTR. That depends...the movie does a really good job on plot line and physical action, but the book does a really good job on setting, internal stuff, and background stories And has a lot more stuff than the movies did
I remember with the Lord of the Ring and Harry Potter reading the book and not letting it go after I finished them
Harry Potter movies are pretty close to the book so I enjoyed both. But still the books because....books. Haha.
*books
Drainer of Time's distant cousin
Who might their parents be?
....hold it. I have to think about that one.... Food and cats I don't know. That's the best right now Or sleep.
hehehe. Food and cats?
Yes?
hehehe
Thank you
sleep is a good one I always thought that sleeping is a waste of time
WHAT?
most of the times
What else do you do when you're not sleeping?
I do wish, however, to have the skill not to need sleep reading, playing, discovering, cleaning, studying, enjoying life etc. ect. etc
Good list.
Can you imagine all that humanity could achieve if we didn't need sleep?
Yes. A whole lot of things. ...but I also can't imagine a world without sleep.
Just think about this. On average every person sleeps, or should sleep about 8 hours, or 56 hours a week, or 2920 hours a year. That is almost 122 days of our lives on bed. Now that I think it would be a great argument for buying a good mattress. 1/3 or our time is spent on sleeping. =)
A Purple mattress That's...a really long time. This is why math is useful I mean, individual nights doesn't seem like we get enough sleep, but put it all together and it's all like "Why are we even sleeping?"
Right? How much more we would be able to do if it weren't because we need sleep? just a thought
It's a very good thought. No joke. But, many IB high school students might not like that.
I remember a friend calculated how much time we waste in the bathroom -hahahaha IB?
Wait, do we spend more time in the bathroom then sleeping? IB stands for international baccalaureate It's a worse version of AP
oh! We almost do and it's longer for women
Well...that's understandable
Just think that an average person takes about 20-30 min for showering, 5-15 min for necessities, 3 min for washing hands, 8-10 min for grooming, etc. I don't remember much of the others he mentioned.
That's already an hour every day.
But overall, he concluded that we spent about 35 days per year in the bathroom
That's...almost sad.
still a need
True.
The point would be that when it comes to think about what we are doing with our time, well... there isn't much time specially when working full time
If only there were more time. Oh! The Porcelain King (bathroom) can be the parents of TV and books. Where do you work ?
