Ants running in a circle lost the pheromone trail and keep running in circles until they die.

Or because they're being chased by FENTON!!

[–] dumbass@piefed.social 10 points 7 months ago

Ohhhh Jesus Christ! FENTON!

It's an oldie but it always makes me piss myself laughing... The desperation in his voice, the absolute ignorance of Fenton *Chefs kiss* perfection.

Deer running in a circle lost connection to the hive mind and keep running in circles until they die. So sad

Identity theft, that's what's going on!

The plural form of deer is actually deese

Deer running in circles, you say?

Sounds like FENTON!! has been naughty again 😁

@Stamets@lemmy.dbzer0.com @memes@sopuli.xyz

I wonder if their spiraling is clockwise or counterclockwise depending on the hemisphere (Coriolis effect)... What if they do this exactly at the equator line (e.g. exactly at the Marco Zero from Brazilian Macapá)? So many questions...

I don't feel ants crawling all over me now at all
