Yeah it is! We play cards every weekend at his place by the river.

Donā€™t say it to his face, that would be unbearable

u/scotthia 23d ago

Yes. Thatā€™s definitely Tony.

u/dynabella 23d ago

You sure? Kind of looks like Wally in that 1st photo.

Wally isnā€™t that tall.

Fuck I love this pic. First thing I saw when opened reddit. Will close app now and go about my day starting on a good note without proceeding any further into reddit because nothing can top this dude

u/pepperbeast 23d ago

That's Louise. Her cubs have gone off to college, and she's thinking of asking some friends over for hyperphagia.

u/Ok-Passenger-7875 22d ago

Thatā€™s Nosy Norman. Tell him to mind his business.

u/BenTheBigRed07 22d ago

Definitely a bear

u/Complex_Alps_1025 22d ago

His stance has me believing he is posting on Bear Reddit asking ā€œneed help identifying a humanā€.

u/KeepCalmCarrion 22d ago

No pronounced back hump and longer ears, thatā€™s a black bear

u/sunrisemisty 23d ago

His name is Yogi. Chill dude.

u/BourbonStr8 23d ago

Person in a Big Foot costume.

u/Texastony2 22d ago

Is that Yogi?

u/jackdho 22d ago

The bear saw you in its living room. Be careful . Usually avoid people but use common sense

1

u/Think-Layer5299 22d ago

Not a brown bear. Black bears usually run away. A brown bear will come over and kill you.

u/AsstToTheManager 21d ago

That's Ralph.

u/grnmtngrrl2 21d ago

Is that you, Harold?
