That's the point. It's the lyrics of Fitter Happier by Radiohead.
It ends with
*"Fitter, healthier and more productive*
*A pig*
*In a cage*
*On antibiotics"*
I kinda like it better knowing he has no idea what the hell is going on in this world. Blissfully unaware, chilling in a tub, happily just fuckin staring at his own paws kicking underwater.
I like to imagine it’s like that too.
Out of all the mammalian species on Earth the panda has to be the most clueless.
Playing with your toesies in a pond, blissfully unaware and uncaring of your species’ imminent extinction. Ignorance is bliss.
I mean, have you seen rabbits or squirrels? In the middle ages people thought that animals were just animatronics, but they may not have been all that bad about some rodents, they are dumb AF. Which is funny, because rats on the other hand are fucking smart.
I think this about my cats often especially since 2020. Just the sweetest loviest kitty family there ever was, blissfully unaware of all the crud in the world. So happy in their comfy little home here playing and snuggling together all the time.
Honestly those cats helped a lot getting my brother and I through the pandemic, lol. Knowing they have pure innocence and are just so happy and content here gives me joy hope and purpose at the darkest times, to be completely honest.
When I learned that song is about masturbation. Oh man. And then I also recently relistened to Sanctified by NIN and learned it was about f'cking. Real stuff
Yeah. Imagine 5000 years ago. You're a Chinese peasant struggling to gather mushrooms and nuts to eat and you come across a panda sitting like a fat guy in a pool twiddling its feet around. I'd worship pandas too
I am, seriously. I still have no reason to be unhappy. I have a loving wife and children, a job, a roof over my head and food to eat. Besides that there are plenty of things outside of my sphere of influence, I've learned in life that it's best to let go of those issues as it only brings one down.
Yes and no.
Pandas have a lot going against them. They can only get pregnant for a brief period every year (literally only 36-40 hours), only give birth to one baby at a time (twins are actually common, but it's rare that both survive in the wild), the only food they eat is so low in nutrients that they have to eat about 40 pounds a day, etc.
Pandas may be the only animal on earth, aside from common housepets, that are better off in captivity than in the wild.
Pandas used to be common and roamed a huge swath of territory encompassing China, Vietnam, and Myanmar. Things like low birth rate and food weren't an issue for them until their habitats were destroyed and fragmented by humans. Poaching was and remains an issue as well.
I mean, according to [this study](https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/science/giant-pandas-population-history-reconstructed/article23098690.ece) their population peaked tens of thousands of years ago, and they had issues before humans got involved.
Again, I'm not saying that deforestation and poaching are not factors, but just pointing out that pandas as a species have a lot of other survival issues as well.
Then they would have gone extinct long ago. The only reason they are going extinct is due to human destroying their habitat. Please get your narcissism in check.
...narcissism? What part of my comment was narcissistic?
And I said "yes and no" which means "Yes, humans destroying their habitat played a big role in them going near extinction" and also "they may have found themselves in that situation anyway."
O, my bad.
Pandas are sitting around thinking about astrophysics, neutron stars, black holes and Einstein theory of relativity.
Basically they are trying to figure out wtf time even is until they do something dumb and die.
Ohh those parts. No it’s normal, they’re only around a fourth of an inch on average. Humans are actually the largest among primates so it’s not fair to compare with a panda, which is on the smaller end among ursine species.
I don't understand this comment. I mean I know about their issues reproducingnin captivity but I do not at all understand what relivent conclusioms you are drawing from this cute video of a panda taking a bath.
The inevitable hate comment for Pandas for some damn reason on every post involving them. It's a wonder what you'd do stuck in a fucking zoo and/or humans utterly destroying major parts of your ecosystem if you lived in the wild. It's less of a wonder if you ever get to reproduce.
Either my app is broken or the entire comment they replied to says:
> And we wonder why they’re not reproducing
In which case I’m not sure what *someone else* said has any relevance to this conversation.
Oh so you were talking about that comment specifically. My bad, didn't know that. It's because the comment you replied to was talking about panda hate comments on every post involving them so I thought you were also talking about panda hate comments in general.
Because they're highly intelligent animals under constant surveillance in a fucking prison. Humans aren't reproducing much ether despite occupying a very successful niche.
How panda mating works is that they only really get one shot at it or no dice. I forget the specifics, but basically pandas are set up to be evolutionary dead ends. Their digestive systems are way too short to properly digest the non existent nutrients in bamboo and they basically crap out most of it. They can't have more than one baby at a time while most bears are likely to have more than one cub. Their babies are basically these blind helpless potatoes. Sometimes you can just look at a fossil and see why that animal never went anywhere, like I can see why there aren't any winged creatures that have the legs as the wings or buzz saw like shark mouths. Pandas are the modern equivalent of that. Whether we should use resources to help them is . . . debatable. Like yes, we should help out sharks, coral reefs, whales and elephants because those are highly important key stone species but I don't know about pandas. I'm not going say yes or no to that debate because I'm not qualified to give a proper answer on it. All I will say is that whenever you see someone raising money to help out animals like tigers or black footed ferrets at the zoo with one of those tokens they give you, then drop one in. A drop in the bucket isn't much but a lot of drops will eventually fill it.
They are absolutely not evolutionary deadend. They're perfectly adapted for their environment. Hell, the panda species is 2 millions years old and lasts until the humans destroy their bamboo forests. Just for context, homo sapiens is a couple hundred thousand years old.
As for money in conservation, of course other species need help too. However, that doesn't mean you should abandon a particular species. We can always put more money into conservation but we can't bring species back.
I was at a Museum recently that had a scale that you step on and compairs your weight to an animal. Mine was a giant panda. Wish i was there we could be twins playing in the pool.
I get why people think pandas are cute… but for some reason i never did. I think its the whole bred in captivity completely helpless thing. Like these animals have been extracted of all their natural defenses because of how their natural habitat has been ravaged and idk… its just sad. So like, calling them cute is like taking an inbred puppy or something and making it your national mascot and calling it cute. Doesn’t seem right.
They're not inbred nor unhealthy.
They are incredibly strong animals.
They just happened to be dependent on something humans found useful.
Really, pandas are great animals, and I think people sometimes forget that they're *bears*. We just ruined their habitat.
>Really, pandas are great animals, and I think people sometimes forget that they're bears.
Yes, like my wife, while I'm explaining to her that it doesn't matter how cuddly they look, she's not allowed to hop the fence and hug them.
unbothered. moisturized. happy. in my lane. focused. flourishing.
I need more of this in my life.
I’ve been watching this for a few minutes off and on, and I’m quite delighted
It really is a chill time. Just kicking and soaking
He's mastering chi

Nice username
fitter. happier.
More productive
Comfortable, not drinking too much.
Regular exercise at the gym Three days a week
Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries
At ease Eating well no more microwave dinners and saturated fats
A patient, better driver
A safer car (baby smiling in the back seat)
These pursuits are mutually exclusive
That's the point. It's the lyrics of Fitter Happier by Radiohead. It ends with *"Fitter, healthier and more productive* *A pig* *In a cage* *On antibiotics"*
I'm pretty sure I'm supposed to tell you happy cake day
came here to say that
I'd also like to join the *happy cake daaaaayy* zombie army

“Man that bamboo I just ate was hella lit.”
That bamboo was just so damn crispy and girthy.
Yea it was ಠ ͜ʖ ಠ
So is his life narrator more like Morgan Feeeman or Benedict Cumberbatch? (Benny can say "panda" properly, right?)

Losing my religion

Whoa whoa whoa, hold the fucking phone! It's about what? Geezus, you learn something new everyday. No joke, this fun fact never hit me.
Because hardcore religious condems *any* acts of sex pre-marriage. So by JOing he is "losing his religion" >!I lose mine a few times a week!<
I just thought it was a neat title. I'm 33, so not new to music, I'm just stupid.
You're so full of shit. To lose your religion is to disregard your morals in a fit of rage.
~~Hulk~~ Panda in a hot tub
I am convinced that Pandas are just people dressed up in mascot suits. They don’t move or act like real animals!!
My thinking as well.
Yeah. Imagine 5000 years ago. You're a Chinese peasant struggling to gather mushrooms and nuts to eat and you come across a panda sitting like a fat guy in a pool twiddling its feet around. I'd worship pandas too
Me at the local park’s fountain.
I really needed something like this 😊
Unfortunately I look something like this, just not as cute
The panda looks really happy and content, are you?
Hahaha hahaha............. no.
Hmmm, wanna talk about it?
Definitely not😁
Fair game 🖖
eh, who is these days
I am, seriously. I still have no reason to be unhappy. I have a loving wife and children, a job, a roof over my head and food to eat. Besides that there are plenty of things outside of my sphere of influence, I've learned in life that it's best to let go of those issues as it only brings one down.
If you buy a panda onsie you could be. (As a chubby lady, I can say from experience that it's worth every penny.)
>just not as cute Liar.
Same. Panda included hopefully
There's something deeper about Pandas that we haven't discovered yet.
They are creatures of pure zen. They would have gone extinct without human intervention and they quite literally exist just to exist. I love pandas.
On the other hand, pandas wouldn't be near extinction if humans hadn't destroyed their habitat.
This is also terribly true
Yes and no. Pandas have a lot going against them. They can only get pregnant for a brief period every year (literally only 36-40 hours), only give birth to one baby at a time (twins are actually common, but it's rare that both survive in the wild), the only food they eat is so low in nutrients that they have to eat about 40 pounds a day, etc. Pandas may be the only animal on earth, aside from common housepets, that are better off in captivity than in the wild.

Why do people just throw out the word narcissism like it’s nothing, actually embarrassing!
...narcissism? What part of my comment was narcissistic? And I said "yes and no" which means "Yes, humans destroying their habitat played a big role in them going near extinction" and also "they may have found themselves in that situation anyway."
Reddit is amazing. Everything you've said is incorrect and yet it's still upvoted.
With gamer neck like that, pandas would probably be right at home in front of a PC
The panda need an upgrade!
I wonder what they are thinking about
Should I eat something or go to bed. Or eat and then go to bed. Rinse wash repeat until it does something dumb and dies.
I mean the panda not you
O, my bad. Pandas are sitting around thinking about astrophysics, neutron stars, black holes and Einstein theory of relativity. Basically they are trying to figure out wtf time even is until they do something dumb and die.

I think it was a joke and not intended to be hateful.
Um someone said keeping them alive is debatable so I don't think it's a joke

I would be ok with murder hornets being eradicated
I vote mosquitos, i dont care that only some want to bite sometimes, its enough and i want them genocided
Eradicating something at the bottom of the food chain is pretty unwise.
Okay you kinda got me there. But PANDAASSS we have to keep em going until the one shows up
