Come for the derp, stay for the full frontal of the Sphinx cat.

I disagree that the desert rain frog picture there is unflattering. That's about as flattering a picture of a desert rain frog as I can imagine.

The next time we have an unbearably hot day, I'm using that polar bear pic for my Facebook profile.

Thanks !!

Came for the animals, stayed for the Urban Mexican Teen Haircuts.

I have mental captions for every picture. I can't stop laughing.

I thought the subjects in that Urban Mexican Teen Haircuts related link looked familiar; probably from this shoot that I rabbit-trailed into a few days ago.

Go home, owl, you’re drunk.

It’s been over for some time, but let’s remember the joy that was Hungover Owls.

...and just like that, our trivia team's name has changed to the Photobombing Llamas. Quizzo, take note.

All I can think when I see the pic and/or read the words 'desert rain frog' is...

Sad and Useless.com is one of the best "image dump" sites on the internet. (Which, admittedly, is a low bar to achieve) I've never seen more funny sadness than I've seen there.
