Quintessential Random
In the carrier that I am aspiring for, which is animal behavior, the main thing that would make my life as this biologist easier would be to understand what the animals I am studying are saying. I can examine the animal and see from its expressions through face and body to figure what its mood it’s displaying is, but other then this I am basically taking a shot in the dark. No matter though I shall pursue them till they speak to me.
Also I must point out that this video is hilarious, thus I like it. Especially the last animal, I do not know the species and do not honestly care. I am more of a larger carnivore kind of guy, you know what I mean. Anyways there interoperation in the old man English voice is absolutely perfect. I chuckled. Hope you can get a laugh out this as well, that is more or less my intention of this.
What else to write about since this topic is quite vague, my apologies to this. Well how about talking about masculinity, I mean from olden days to the current I feel this perception has changed drastically. I mean a long time ago was it not very manly to be an outdoorsman and do all the variety outdoors men things, or being a solder. Well I would have to say being a solder is still one of the higher manly man occupations. But now masculinity is look at in so many different ways from the perception of the guido (over tanned, steroid using, spiky hair having people) or something like that. The Internet, as I am familiar with it, has a nickname for these people = douche’s. Excuse my language, but I only report what I read. I feel this is not masculine, this is my opinion; I do think that bringing back the outdoorsman persona would be cool.
Sorry for my random rant, had nothing else on my mind, and I guess this is as good as anything. Hope you enjoyed the video.

Oh my Gosh, that first video was hilarious, I'll watch the second one later but I'm sure it is just as good. As for trying to understand animals, it is really hard. I work at a vet and absolutly hate when a skittish dog comes in because you never know how they are going to react to you. They could snap or just sit still, luckily most just sit still, but it is still a problem. One of the Doctors I work with likes to do the little commentary on what the dog is thinking and it tends to make everyone laugh so that's why I like these videos.
ReplyDeleteNIiiice, I also worked at a vet. Scrubs in all. I agree though, some of those dogs are just insane. I sometimes just had to grind my teeth when I saw one come in. Also I am glad you liked the video, the second one is decent, I enjoyed it none the less.
ReplyDeleteAwwww these videos were so cute! I love animals and i think it is so funny to put your own words in their mouths. Their expressions can be taken in so many different ways. It makes you think what it would be like to experience a day in an animal's mind.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed both videos quite a bit. Your random thoughts were quite interesting as well. I believe that as we gain more control of our resources(shelter, food, clothes, and now technology). We will become even more comfortable in our environment. Which in turn will support a cleaner more sterile lifestyle, think about it, hand sanitizer,spotless shoes. Shoes are in place to keep out feet clean yet many people freak out when their shoes get dirty. The outdoors man is becoming extinct.
ReplyDeleteSecond video is my favorite ... Just thought I should add that info...
