Good God, we really will use anything but the metric system.

[-] Deuces@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago
[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Or 488.28 kibidollars.

[-] Godort@lemm.ee 34 points 1 year ago

Approximately $1139.32 per poodle

[-] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 18 points 1 year ago
[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 43 points 1 year ago

They said approximately.

[-] WillFord27@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Unfortunately it seems they thought that there were 438.9 poodles

I wanna see that movie.

[-] spacecadet@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Why would you spend that money on a poodle when you could use it for a psychic?

[-] BobbyNevada@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 1 year ago

What about a psychic poodle?

[-] 0x4E4F@infosec.pub 30 points 1 year ago

Wow, didn't know poodles were that expensive.

I'd just get a street dog, costs nothing and will be your best friend ☺️.

No street dogs where I live. Suppose I'll have to get a pet deer instead

[-] vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 1 year ago

maybe try getting adopted by a street cat then

[-] MycoBro@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Where do you live? I live in the country but still get people who drive out here to drop of strays sometimes.

[-] Grayox@lemmy.ml 25 points 1 year ago

That could support 10 lemmy devs!

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago
[-] Grayox@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

For 1 year unfortunately, it would support 3 lemmy devs for 3.33 years

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

5×1=5 ≠ 3×3⅓=10

[-] Stumblinbear@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago

Software engineers make buku bucks

I was going to correct you, but after doing a web search, it appears that "buku" is an alternative spelling of "beaucoup." Neat!

[-] KammicRelief@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I was also going to correct. Thanks for doing the work!

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 year ago

If only there was some way she could have seen that coming.

[-] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

The psychics certainly saw that coming.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Sure, if you buy purebreds with documentation or something, JFC. Anyone willing to pay $12,000 for one dog needs to be taxed harder.

[-] matter@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

It would be $1,200 though

[-] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

The only reason to pay that much is if you're planning on starting breeding yourself.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

If you breed yourself you're going to spend a hell of a lot more than $1,200. Especially if you plan on sending them to college.

Eww.. don’t buy animals, adopt.

[-] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

You do still have to pay for them though.

[-] DrOakfield@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The elites don’t want you to know this but the dogs at the park are free you can take them home I have 416 dogs.

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

If you don't know it already, please listen to I Steal Pets by Rachel Bloom.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Generally, you pay things like the cost of spaying or neutering and vaccines. We paid $150 when we adopted our last dog to cover those costs. $150 is a hell of a lot less than over $1000.

[-] basxto@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 year ago

And food and taxes and going to a doc when they get ill and make vaccations more expensive

[-] Artyom@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

My local shelter has free adoptions. Everyone returned the dogs they bought during COVID, so they just need to get rid of them as fast as possible from the shelters.

[-] FastAndBulbous@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Yes generally, but adopted animals can absolutely have challenging behavoural issues that not everyone is suited to deal with. It depends on your situation I think but absolutely more people should adopt.

[-] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Adoption isn't free tho.....

[-] redballooon@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

I suppose that’s an argument from someone who thinks a poodle is replacement for therapy.

[-] shukufuku@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago
[-] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 13 points 1 year ago

432 metric poodles

[-] PatFussy@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

158 french bulldogs

[-] unreachable@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

still need banana for scale

[-] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you prefer, $500,000 can get you 5 1993 AMERTEK 4000L tanker

[-] GlitterInfection@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago
