Isn't part of the problem with straws that turtles see them and try to eat them? Clearly that's what this image is depicting.

[–] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yup, that's why I use plastic straws when turtle fishing.

Tonight I use a straw for my turtle smoothies!

Turtles may hate straws, but ninjas LOVE straws, which explains why he’s using it with an angry face

[–] nicknonya@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago

teenagers are overall ambivalent towards straws, jury's still out on the mutants opinion

True weakness comes from not knowing what you truly are

Regular turtles hate them.

Teenage mutant ninja turtles are built different.

Can't be, it hasn't completely disintegrated yet.

It takes a mome-- and done!

He’s snorting that coke

Animations are expensive and straws help you avoid them

[–] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Clearly he's hurting. Probably passed away in a dark place when the straw got stuck in his esophagus.

It was the 90's okay? A different time

This is one of the new shows that lasts a couple seasons before being rebooted again

Nah, this is from the 2003 series. I think it lasted five years.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I grew up in the 90's and we only had the live action movies. The cartoons came later

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, I remember a cartoon from my Saturday morning cartoon days, and those were the mid 90s.

[–] lugal@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago

Guess it swapped over to Germany later which makes sense now that I think about it. For me it was a show when I was already out of that age group

[–] OpenStars@discuss.online 4 points 1 year ago

It's straws on the backs of straws, all the way down...

[–] lemmy_get_my_coat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

That's the last straw

Plastic straws hurt turtles

[–] mayhair@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago

I guess cause they're pollution.

[–] CoolMatt@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

It's a cartoon

There, explained.
