Sport Animals Cafe

Chinatown in Yokohama, Japan
by @sai_photograher._

No plan on all of these Asian shots this week. Just luck of the draw.

More of the sharpshooting dog. People wonder if it's fake but that isn't any kind of off-the-shelf animation. That dog is definitely holding the scrunchies in a paw and pulling it with his mouth. To computer animate all that, you'd have to animate it all yourself.

On the other hand, this looks real, but I know it can't be real.

There's just so much going on here I don't know where to start.

Freeing a hawk that has tangled itself in fishing line. The hawk's expression is kind of funny. I know he's frightened. But he's funny-looking.

True love is dumb.

Baby makes a friend.

Baby's first compromising situation.

There's a lot of scandalous babies in this Cafe.

No seriously what's going on with all of these babies?

This dog sobbing uncontrollably at the grave of his dead master is very affecting but don't watch it unless you're okay with getting misty.

Tourists go home!

Just a couple of guys doin' man-stuff.

Sound on. Funny clip of doggos with funny added audio.

Landscape baking. She makes several edible landscapes.

Fast bike ride through really nice scenery.

A seal sleeping and snoring underwater.

Adorable polar bear just wants to say "hi" (kicks rock) and maybe eat your leg off.

Bears are evolving.

The most polite mini bull. Looks like Snoopy.

The dog isn't just playing volleyball -- he also knows when his team has scored a point.

22 "Bears are evolving."

Though often confused with bruins, Pandas are in fact not bears. An ancient species, they reached their evolutionary peak approximately 2 billion years ago.

Pandas are commonly found at #15 on the menu, and are served with rice and a nice duck sauce.

29 When the Blanco River flooded in 2015, my brother and his wife went down to the Wimberley town park to help with cleanup. They found a hawk tangled in a fishing line. They threw a blanket over the hawk and drove it to a vet in Kyle where the vet cut the line off and sent it on to a bird rescue for a few weeks. My brother said that even with the blanket over him, picking up that bird was the scariest thing he'd ever done.

Correct! The humans are playing with kicks and headers, and not using their arms or hands, like European kickball.

I actually have first hand experience at this. It is real.

At Sea World you can pay money for a "dolphin experience" sans dolphin rape which I guess would be extra. But looking at the surrounding in that video, that looks like exactly where I was.

This was during Covid and all their prices were dramatically less. I think it cost about 40 bucks each, me, my wife, and my kid to "ride the dolphin". And it looked just like that, you hold on to the fin and they take you around once and they take a picture.

They made us wear masks alone with the dolphin. The dolphin looked at me with my mask on and we bonded spiritually and he communicated to me this message, high level mammal to mammal, "you stupid fuck".

74 I liked the Sea World trip. It was a nice break from the craziness during Covid down in Florida. They have a big cove area where you can rent a cabana and just lay out all day while your kid swims with dolphins and stuff. I think there were rays too. It seemed pretty safe and there were life guards everywhere. The prices were really low because of covid so maybe I couldn't afford it now but I remember the trip fondly.

90 What's interesting about that car and plane video is that both of them are generating negative lift. Cars should always be generating negative lift, but the plane flying upside down was too.

I think aerobatic planes may have closer to neutral camber in their wing design making that easier. I'm not certain but I think that would probably help if you were flying upside down a lot and wanted snappy control rather than a conventionally cambered wing.

106 When I was a camp counselor, we’d take the kiddies to either Geagua Lake or Sea World.

I preferred Geagua Lake. Kinda sad that it closed.

But for (in today's world) outrageous, non-PC theme music, you have to hand it to Chippewa Lake Park.

Towards the end -

Just for fun, let's go to Chippewaaaaaaa.

Chippewa, Lake Park!

Oddly enough, I have only been to Cedar Point a couple of times.

The proper viewing of the series is to watch the first one, then let the rest play out in the background while you do chores and cook several meals.

127 Connaught Lake Park was always on the docket

It's gone too. Parts of the roller coaster there fell down due to a fire. Happened a year or two ago. Just a few years ago, I went there and some of the rides were still up and a few of them used. There was a waterpark too. I drove right up to the lake and parked. Walked around. Looked like a combination of a museum and the set of The Walking Dead. Nice memories from there. Loved the huge arcade room they used to have.

Posted by: Puddleglum at work at May 16, 2024 09:30 PM (K861k)

128 Mom and Dad didn't have the resources to take us to Cedar Point so, we'd go to Meyer's Lake in Canton or Adora Park in Youngstown.

We loved both of them as kids. Old, rickety wooden roller coasters and tawdry, rundown rides like "Laff in the Dark" and such.

(Does Ace even read comments after posting the café? Maybe not after the first few?)

Polar bear -- man, I wouldn't just hang there like that!

Similarly, the guy freeing the hawk was daring, and the hawk was a true classic of human-trusting critters.

Evolving bear -- great one. Are we sure that wasn't a Chucky Cheese's animatronic?

Grieving dog -- about the most moving critter vid ever.

Cat games was cool, too.

I know the ONT must be up by now, but I just wanted to say.
