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

[-] Deuces@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago
[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Or 488.28 kibidollars.

[-] Godort@lemm.ee 34 points 2 years ago

Approximately $1139.32 per poodle

[-] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago
[-] Donkter@lemmy.world 43 points 2 years ago

They said approximately.

[-] WillFord27@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Unfortunately it seems they thought that there were 438.9 poodles

[-] OneWomanCreamTeam@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

I wanna see that movie.

[-] spacecadet@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

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

[-] BobbyNevada@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 2 years ago

What about a psychic poodle?

[-] Tetsuo@jlai.lu 2 points 2 years ago
[-] 0x4E4F@infosec.pub 30 points 2 years ago

Wow, didn't know poodles were that expensive.

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

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

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

[-] vrighter@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 years ago

maybe try getting adopted by a street cat then

[-] MycoBro@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

That could support 10 lemmy devs!

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago
[-] Grayox@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

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

[-] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago

5×1=5 ≠ 3×3⅓=10

[-] Stumblinbear@pawb.social 2 points 2 years ago

Software engineers make buku bucks

[-] i_dont_want_to@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

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 2 years ago

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

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 21 points 2 years ago

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

[-] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 years ago

The psychics certainly saw that coming.

[-] Etterra@lemmy.world 19 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

It would be $1,200 though

[-] EatYouWell@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

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

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

You do still have to pay for them though.

[-] DrOakfield@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years 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 2 years ago

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

[-] Artyom@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years 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 2 years 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 2 years ago

Adoption isn't free tho.....

[-] redballooon@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago

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

[-] shukufuku@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 years ago
[-] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 13 points 2 years ago

432 metric poodles

[-] PatFussy@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago

158 french bulldogs

[-] unreachable@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

still need banana for scale

[-] RIP_Cheems@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

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

[-] GlitterInfection@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago
