There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

I've had this thought also - a snoring human kind of sounds like a large, growling animal. So maybe it is a defence mechanism to ward off potential predators. But I'd be interested in hearing an actual expert opinion
Yeah. I shared a campsite once with a stranger who snored really loudly, and my god, he legitimately sounded like a growling grizzly it was that intense.
