Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?

What? A swallow carrying a coconut?

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It could grip it by the husk!

It's not a question of where it grips it, it's a simple question of weight ratios!

A five oz bird cannot carry a one pound coconut!

Even after Austin Powers came out it was Monty Python. Or Aqua Teen Hunger Force (specifically the first mooninites episode). Sealab 2021 gets honorable mention.
