Is it like a petting zoo?

friend kalinda

[hellshaped]

Kind of... if your idea of a petting zoo is breaking into somebody's house and patting them while they're eating dinner.

Giraffes? [Giraffes!]

That's... different.

aw yeah

[hellshaped]

It's something, alright. There are little lions here, too. Kind of cute.

[kungfuwitch]

Little lions? And they're just living with the giraffes? It sounds more like you walked into a Disney cartoon than a town.

...Giraffes.

[Even the giant talking invisible space rabbit is struggling with this one]

Do they talk, at least?

yes good

[hellshaped]

[Wow, guy, be a little more open minded!!]

Yeah. It would have been silly if they didn't.

[thatrabbitsdynamite]

[Nope. For a being dependent on belief to exist, he's kind of a dick when it comes to believing in other things]

Oh yeah. Because that would be the silly part. I can see that.
