Turtle rave

This little guy is rocking out with his shell out.

*I have been assured that the toothbrush is not hurting him, it’s just like getting back scratches.

Tiny cuteness

Someone just put this one up on the facebook fan page.

So tiny, so cute!

Bandini’s turtle

This turtle lives in a zoo. That’s kind of like a nursing home for non-pets. They get everything a nursing home turtle could ever want. They get vegetables. They get cable TV. They get a shower twice a day. And one phone call a week. They even get to talk for hours about how when they were little they walked uphill to and from school, because back in the yester-year everything was uphill. Downhill wasn’t invented yet.

Ba nanana na na na na, Ba nanana na na na…

this turtle has vision. he doesn’t see his size, and see the banana’s size and think ‘i can’t do this’. he’s like, ‘i’ll take it on, cos i’m a turtle. i am THE turtle’. and that’s what he does.

and that’s all well and good. but you know, maybe he’s not really getting it the way he’s supposed to. he’s small and the banana is big for a reason. turtles just can’t appreciate the complex taste of a banana. and that’s not me talking – that is SCIENCE. i mean look at the size of that little mouth. he’s chomping on the edge pieces, and that’s all he’s getting. edge piece taste. he’s not getting a little piece of edge, a little piece of almost middle and a little piece of actual middle tastes. that’s the way the banana was supposed to be eaten. he’s just not getting it.

now let me be clear on this. i hate bananas. the smell of those bastards could make me throw up on the spot. like sniffing milk in a carton. spew. anyway, i can’t stand banana smell so let’s not bring it up again. i used to like my banana scented hula hoop though when i was little. it was more like lolly bananas though. now that’s a smell i can get down with.

Hippy Turtle

This turtle is a hippy. I’m not a racist or anything, but things like hippies make me worry about natural selection. Is it still working out for us? I’m not so sure.

A hippy turtle is even more worrying. Is it a learned condition? Or is this turtle being a smart arse and mocking us? Like, “I know, I’m a turtle and all that. And yeah, I have to eat flowers cos I don’t know how to make hamburgers.. but you guys have hippies. Who is the real loser here?”

Bad News..

I hate to have to be the one to tell you this, but a covenent of turtle wizards are plotting to kill you. I’m not sure what you did, or who you offended. It has something to do with mini tomatoes. God speed.

i’m in love with seahorses!

i love the look in this littte turtles eye. STRAWBERRY! i think that’s what glee looks like in a reptile.
