Someone has to say it…

It’s what plants crave!

I talked to the plants and they just want water.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Like, from the toilet?

[–] slampisko@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (5 children)

European here, what is this Brawndo?

EDIT: Briefly forgot I could google it.

It's a fictional energy drink from the movie Idiocracy (which has long been on my to-watch list)

[–] thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I had idiocracy on my list for a while. After watching it, I can confirm that it's easily one of the best movies ever made.

Welcome to Costco, I love you.

[–] filcuk@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

When that came out, it was a way over the top silly movie.
Watching that now may prove to be a very different experience.

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Everyone wears Crocs because the costume designer thought they were the stupidest thing they'd ever seen.

[–] III@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I would kill for a dystopian future where, although stupid, the people aren't filled with hatred. Seems like we are headed for the hate-filled idiot future...

Also the society wide sexual confidence behind the use of the term "Bait'n" in public.

You should try it, it has electrolytes.

[–] Stupidmanager@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Idiocracy is more like real Life tv now versus a movie.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ha you wish, we don't have the luck to live in a nice a place.

Go away. Batin’

[–] Folstar@lemmus.org 5 points 2 months ago

Are these the vandals they're arresting for pouring in corrosive chemicals, walking in the pool, and scraping off the poorly done, poorly conceived paint job?

[–] Bahnd@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I hope that those pants are rated for chemicals, they have been dumping shit in that water for days to clear up the bloom.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

That dude in the front is wearing camo overalls. Is he trying to sneak up on the algae? Is he an assassin?

Dude behind him is wearing dayglow. They are giving mixed signals.

Introvert vs extrovert

[–] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Hydrogen peroxide very rapidly decomposed to just water

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

The dead baby ducks are super sad

[–] AlboTheGuy@feddit.nl 4 points 2 months ago

It's got electrolytes! It's what plants crave!

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

People generations from now are going to feel the embarrassment. That's how potent it is.

[–] perishthethought@piefed.social 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Please tell me they're not trying to scoop all the algae out of there.

[–] JasonDJ@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If you shock it, that kills the algae, right?

Then where does it go? There's physical remnants left behind. That doesn't just disappear.

Just like you have to skim a regular pool, I'm sure you want to keep solid waste out of the reflecting pool to keep from overwhelming a filtration system that's simply not built for the load.

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Just grab em by the algae, what's taking so long?

[–] fizzle@quokk.au 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I assumed it was a generated image.

At the very least, the water is too green.

If it happens to be legit, no they're not scooping algae because they don't have anything to scoop it into.

That said, during algal blooms in estuaries et cetera physically removing it is part of the process. If a healthy estuary is free of whatever variety of algae, but it gets infested somehow for example due to fertiliser run off from farms, then stopping the fertiliser may not be enough to solve the problem because the estuary is clogged up with algae.

It looks too blown out for a professional photograph. Looks like AI slop to me.

[–] angband@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I thought brawndo was a mad-magazine-esque pun for kids based off a popular detergent logo from the early 80's. Never saw idiocracy.

[–] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

You're living it mate.

[–] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Never saw idiocracy.

You don't need to anymore.

[–] neuroneiro@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

You have not yet lived until you’ve experienced the critically & audience adored future classic Masterpiece that will be… Ow! My balls!

However, should you engage, be prepared to get your ‘batin’ interrupted during highlights.

[–] Cellari@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

You know it's fresh when it's green

[–] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Shut up with yer stupid words and put some more Ow, My Balls!" back on!

[–] bagsy@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Fuck, that's a top notch joke!! Hats off to you!.

[–] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

America needs electrolytes!
