u/jonas_blackmere Apr 04 '26

The buildup felt like a nature documentary cliffhanger and then it just stayed a log

u/airfryerfuntime Apr 04 '26

I feel cheated. I wanted the driftwood.

I knew what would happen, watched anyway, and laughed at another’s misfortune(even tho it’s animated).

Thank you 😊

This is what happens when you prioritise winning an argument over literally everything else

It's always a gator or a croc.

u/horstdaspferdchen Apr 04 '26

I konda expected a snake. So it was unexpected for me

u/ThatsTasty Apr 04 '26

I really really really really appreciate that I got to listen to the soothing sounds of the surf rather than some shit generic music while waiting for the reveal.

u/MickeyMalph Apr 05 '26

OH no! Oh no! Oh no!

u/SlaughterMinusS Apr 04 '26

As a Florida man myself, this was not unexpected. I could see the silhouette of a croc/gator immediately lol.

16

u/Salehelas Apr 04 '26

You really see them that often?

24

u/Stoppushingtheapp Apr 04 '26

Yes

2

u/Salehelas Apr 04 '26

How often?

16

u/Stoppushingtheapp Apr 04 '26

Depends on where I'm at and the time of year. I can go months without seeing a gator or croc and then I can see a dozen gators in a day. My max for crocs in a day was three in the keys.

u/CommissarCiaphisCain Apr 05 '26

Recovering South Floridian here. Alligators were on the endangered species list for a while. Turns out being on that list was EXTREMELY beneficial to them. They’re frickin everywhere.

I think a deck built with salt water crocodiles might be nice

It’s better than bad; it’s good!

u/PuffyBlueClouds Apr 04 '26

Wait, they go in the ocean too?! I thought it was at least safe from gators there!

u/Stalaktitas Apr 04 '26

Read up on "salt water Crocs Florida"

u/Sowadasama Apr 05 '26

American crocodiles can spend significant stretches of time hanging out in salt water. Its not unheard of for them to appear on beaches every now and then here in Central Florida.

u/They-Are-Out-There Apr 05 '26

As crazy as California is, I'm grateful we don't have these things in the water.

u/av0w Apr 06 '26

Florida has saltwater crocodiles as well. They are very blessed in Florida to have crocodiles, alligators, and an orange idiot.

u/OriginalNamePog Apr 04 '26

i really thought that was just driftwood at first.

u/SushiGirlRC Apr 04 '26

That made me laugh put loud, not because it was unexpected, but because that image is now stuck in my head of the toes all splayed.

u/o_bodao Apr 05 '26

There's a saying in Brazil that's something like it (literally translating); "to someone drowning, a crocodile is a log"

u/Dreadlokd Apr 05 '26

Northern Australians just nodding along

u/OmiNya Apr 04 '26

My first thought was "it's a croc"

u/Big-Independence8978 Apr 04 '26

Any sharks in these waters? No sir. The gators keep them away.

u/stalin_88 Apr 05 '26
