  *crowd chanting* "GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE! GUSTAVE!" 

"Gustave is a man-eating male Nile crocodile that roams the Ruzizi river and the northern shores of Lake Tanganyika in Burundi, Africa. Gustave is rumored to have killed as many as 200–300 people, though one more recent estimate states the true figure is probably 60 people or fewer. He has obtained a mythical status and is greatly feared by the people in the region."

I feel like this is a safe place to tell this story.

My roommate had a chameleon. Some mornings I would greet him by saying “what up, my lizard!”

All I would ever get in response was side eye.
