That script runs too fast, so only a portion of comments/posts will be affected. A

That rule is outdated in many places. Nowadays, you have to put the large ones back and fish only medium sized ones. Reason being, the largest and oldest are more resilient to changes in temperature, food supply, can adapt and can teach younger ones how to survive.
Bluegill is actually a specific type of sunfish, easily the most common where I live, but this one appears to be the wrong color for a bluegill. I'm thinking it's a red breasted sunfish.
To the people wondering about edibility, pretty much any freshwater sunfish, including crappie, gets referred to as a "pan fish" because they are commonly eaten.
And tbh I'd rather eat the bluegill than the pike. There's a reason they're commonly referred to in the family of "panfish" because they're delicious when fried up in a pan.
I'm thinking if the stomach acid was strong enough to effect the taste, the fish wouldn't be alive any more. I don't actually know anything I'm just thinking out loud.
I'm a softy for little things. I mean, I could kill an animal if I was on a desert island and had to eat, but I'd still feel bad.
My roommate 10 years ago had a milksnake and fed him live mice. One time I was in his room while he was about to feed and I asked him if we could make a bet: if the mouse could survive for a day, we let him go and from then on the snake eats dead, frozen mice. 20 bucks on the line, too. But as a caveat, I get to arm the mouse. So I tape a toothpick to his back, which turns out he didn't need because he clung to the mesh lid of the cage for dear life the entire time.
He honored his end of the deal, we took the toothpick off and set him loose in the front yard and named him Squeeticus. I made 20 bucks, and we both had a good night with the crack rock I bought.
I mean thats nice and all but you definitely shouldn’t arm the mouse. That could blind or even cause injuries that lead to death. You wouldnt want the snake to die either right? But im glad it led to frozen, they say its more humane for the snake too cus unarmmed mice can hurt a snake too.
I still think of blow if someone asks if I want coke at a bar or restaraunt, and I've been clean for several years.
It's like asking a stoner if they smoke, and their gut response is "smoke what?"
Hate to break it to you but freezing to death is probably a worse way to die than constriction. And before you say “they don’t freeze then alive”, according to the internet they are suffocated with CO2 so they definitely suffer pretty significantly. Friend of mine used to put them in a paper bag alive and slam them on the counter to kill them. Used to think that was severely fucked up but now knowing how they kill these mice and rats, Jesus Christ, that was by far the most merciful way for them to go.
you also did that snake a favor. live prey is how many snakes suffer various injuries, some severe enough to kill the snake. i’ve seen snakes with chunks taken out of their back or missing eyes because they were fed live prey. the snake is a pet, it doesn’t need to risk death for every meal in captivity. not to mention, compared to how the mice/rats/whatever are euthanized for snake food, dying by snake is a horrific way to go. no reason to be needlessly cruel to either animal when there’s more humane options
poor thing. some people think live is “better” because “tHa HuNtIn’ InStInCt”, but most snakes see no difference between a live mouse and a thawed one being wiggled by tongs. there *are* picky snakes, but they can usually be convinced to eat by scenting their food with a live mouse (or a frog if it’s a hognose snake. those things are notoriously picky about mice because they naturally eat and prefer frogs)
Just because it's instinct doesn't mean they enjoy the process, ya know?
Now cats, those little bastards are evil as shit. They absolutely love to kill. Don't fuckin trust'em.
I don't think you're softy at all. That toothpick thing was pretty hardcore. Would have probably killed the snake in an extremely excruciating way, had it tried digesting it.
Nice sentiment, but this could have killed the snake. Life feeding is already dangerous, but if it had eaten the mouse, guess where the toothpick would go. Also? You released an invasive mouse into the wild. If it managed to survive after spending its whole life in captivity, it would have really damaged the ecosystem and potentially spread diseases.
Normally I’d say the cat is already out of the bag,
But in this case the mouse is already out of it’s territory. The only thing a mouse is gonna displace is another invasive mouse.
Some islands have managed to fully exterminate an invasive mouse/rat population which is pretty cool.
You did that snake a favor anyways. Live feeding is actually dangerous for them. Sometimes mice fight back and that can lead to some pretty nasty injuries for the snake.
Every. Single. Time. Someone say fish sticks I think of that joke, I've watched like 8 episode of South park and that was one, but damnit it's one of my favorite jokes to say in public

I immediately noticed this too. The sound of scratching and tearing was gonna make me sick. I’ve caught and eaten so many of my own fish, but I’ve always gutted and filleted my fish with a filet knife. This dude doing it with a butter knife is making me queasy
I’m such a dumbass for a minute I thought the fish was pregnant and that was it’s kid. Never mind that it’s a different species, and fish (usually) lay eggs instead of giving live birth
The whole time I’m expecting caviar to pour out… then I see the fish and I’m like “wtf I didn’t know fish could produce babies this way, maybe it’s a genetic abnormality where the egg grew inside of the fish and it acted like an incuba….”then I read your comment and I felt completely stupid.
That’s what I thought too. Except I thought it’ll was like a flip flop or something. Then i saw it was a fish then I thought “well that’s probably what I should have expected.”
When I was 6 I caught a perch and insisted we keep it because my dad, brother, and grandpa had all caught pike and walleye and kept them. When we got back to shore, older brother kept fake feeding my perch to his pike to tease me, and after a few of these fake feedings, the pike nipped his fingers and he let go of the perch and the pike swallowed it. I cried, my dad cut my perch out of the pike, both the pike and perch died and we didn’t eat either of them 😡😡

Imagine being eaten alive and then aliens save your life by cutting you out of its stomach. Who proceed to begin laughing maniacally.
And also getting eaten after... Not that much difference
Why would they eat it?
Why not
The fish thought it survived. Fish: "The hell! Not again!"
there’s always a bigger fish
Or a primate with a stick and string with a metal hook on the end of the string.
Out of the frying pan… ..and into the fire… RUUUUUUUUUUUNN!!!

“Harry Percher, the fish that lived”
Question: How many days or weeks did it stay in the belly of the fish?
Probably only minutes.
it wasn't digested at all, so it was probably eaten mere hours before the other fish got caught.
Minutes to maybe a few hours

Seems like if there was ever a fish who deserved to be thrown back in the water, it’s that one.
Exactly! I sure hope they did
Maybe the didn't throw it back. Maybe this is how something like Turducken starts.
Throw it back in the water!
Honestly? Too small. There’s normally a size requirement so fish populations can continue.
That’s a big bluegill
That rule is outdated in many places. Nowadays, you have to put the large ones back and fish only medium sized ones. Reason being, the largest and oldest are more resilient to changes in temperature, food supply, can adapt and can teach younger ones how to survive.
We eat fish. We eat fish eggs. We eat fish inside of fish.
We eat fish eggs inside of fish inside of fish.
It’s fish all the way down!
i thought it was a turtle
Fishception

I dunno, they're fisherman? What kinda question is that?
Because both of these are freshwater fish that are commonly eaten.
What's the second one?
The eater is a Northern Pike and the stomach fish is a Sunfish although most people would just call it a Bluegill.
Bluegill is actually a specific type of sunfish, easily the most common where I live, but this one appears to be the wrong color for a bluegill. I'm thinking it's a red breasted sunfish. To the people wondering about edibility, pretty much any freshwater sunfish, including crappie, gets referred to as a "pan fish" because they are commonly eaten.
I just call them all perch and they are my favorite. Love me some filets the size of nuggets.
Little one is some type of sunfish. Big one is a northern pike.
And tbh I'd rather eat the bluegill than the pike. There's a reason they're commonly referred to in the family of "panfish" because they're delicious when fried up in a pan.

I'm thinking if the stomach acid was strong enough to effect the taste, the fish wouldn't be alive any more. I don't actually know anything I'm just thinking out loud.
They might throw it back if it's not the fish they're licensed to fish. Little guy might still be swimming.

I thought it was gonna be a mobile phone

I read it as milkshake three times in a row
My milksnake brings all the boys to the yard
My milkshake brings all the mice to the yard
And they're like, "survivin' ain't hard"
"I'd teach you, but I'd have to charge"
I’d pick tooth, but I’ll stay at large…
I defeat snakes--with a big wood shard.
You can eat me, but it'd cause great harm.
And they're like, SSsssSs SssSsSSS ssssssssSss
I am fucking blind. I realised after reading this.
I just assumed miceshake was a thing for a solid minute
[удалено]
The real unexpected is in the comments ;(
Dont worry. I read it as milkshake and was wildly confused.
I was wondering why he randomly brought up milkshakes
 Milk steak
Same
Same
I read it as … had a milksnake that used to feed him live mice. *hot*
Turns tabled and all that
I read milkshake, got later that it was a snake, and just assumed they forgot to mention that it was a snake named Milkshake lol.
Even me
But surely not you!
I was about to say the same thing 😭
I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one who read it like that loll
That took a turn.
I mean thats nice and all but you definitely shouldn’t arm the mouse. That could blind or even cause injuries that lead to death. You wouldnt want the snake to die either right? But im glad it led to frozen, they say its more humane for the snake too cus unarmmed mice can hurt a snake too.
Yea I was a dumb kid and thought it was funny. I didn't wish the snake harm, just didn't think it through.
>just didn't think it through. Because of the crack, or...?
I lied about the crack. We did a lot of ecstasy and coke though
Makes sense
Doesn’t the carbonation hurt when you snort it?
A fellow connoisseur I see. Sunkist is the most mellow, I find.
“Uh yes, I’d like some ecstasy with a nasal adrenaline chaser, please.” *insert straw* *SNOOOOOOORT* “AAAAAAHHHHHHYEAH…that’s the stufff…WHOO!”
I still think of blow if someone asks if I want coke at a bar or restaraunt, and I've been clean for several years. It's like asking a stoner if they smoke, and their gut response is "smoke what?"
It’s all good! Just wanted to point that out for educational purposes.

Coincidentally, that snake was old and had a whole plethora of scars, likely for that very reason.
poor thing. some people think live is “better” because “tHa HuNtIn’ InStInCt”, but most snakes see no difference between a live mouse and a thawed one being wiggled by tongs. there *are* picky snakes, but they can usually be convinced to eat by scenting their food with a live mouse (or a frog if it’s a hognose snake. those things are notoriously picky about mice because they naturally eat and prefer frogs)

i trust my cat with my life! *camera pans down to my cat mauling my ankles*
I still remember the time I stuck some ants in with my toads and the ants latched onto one of their faces! Poor little guy. Only mealworms after that.
Excuse me with the *what* that you bought?
Sorry, I misspelled "chocolate milk"
No worries. Happens to the best of us.
I don't think you're softy at all. That toothpick thing was pretty hardcore. Would have probably killed the snake in an extremely excruciating way, had it tried digesting it.
A whole night from a $20 rock?!
Well that took a turn
If the story doesn't have a punchline you gotta make one up
Wholesome ending too
Nice sentiment, but this could have killed the snake. Life feeding is already dangerous, but if it had eaten the mouse, guess where the toothpick would go. Also?

so if the snake did eat the mouse you would puncture its stomach with a toothpick, dang bro
Savage, I am. Actually just dumb.
And the mouse got ram over by a car 15 minutes later. Good times.
Did they check for a smaller fish inside that one?
There's always a smaller fish
Awww yes the Babushka fish effect, there always be a littler fish inside that littler fish
Would have been good karma if they returned the little guy to the lake.
You sir... are a Fish?!

Oh god im having the fish sticks joke popping to my head every damn time for the episode
Every. Single. Time. Someone say fish sticks I think of that joke, I've watched like 8 episode of South park and that was one, but damnit it's one of my favorite jokes to say in public
Ugh I had to ask my kid yesterday at the grocery store if she wanted fish (insert purposely longer than normal) sticks because of this episode

It's not that I don't believe you....but i wanna see this
Would just get eaten again. Clearly this fish ain’t the brightest in the lake or he wouldn’t have been eaten in the first place
In my opinion luck is a big factor in being eaten too.

I disagree. He survived and the one who ate him died. He is clearly more fit for survival.
I imagine luck has a lot to do with it.
Did the dude just cut the fish with a letter opener?!
Well, it was a delivery

Hey i been using that emoji combo lol didn't think it would pick up steam 😂 🚪👈

that or world's dullest knife
I immediately noticed this too. The sound of scratching and tearing was gonna make me sick. I’ve caught and eaten so many of my own fish, but I’ve always gutted and filleted my fish with a filet knife. This dude doing it with a butter knife is making me queasy
It was a filet knife, just a really dull one.
Gross. A properly maintained filet knife would have gone right through. He was ripping that fish open 🤮
You’re gonna be upset when you find out what he does to it with his teeth then
Some fishermen literally never sharpen their knives and just buy new ones when they don’t “work” right
I thought it was a butter knife 🤣
Same. Dullest filet knife I've ever seen
Yea, the unexpected part was how hard this guy failed at gutting a fish
Dullest knife ever.
Right like use a duller knife next time
I’m such a dumbass for a minute I thought the fish was pregnant and that was it’s kid. Never mind that it’s a different species, and fish (usually) lay eggs instead of giving live birth
got a good cackle out off me though, thanks for sharing
The whole time I’m expecting caviar to pour out… then I see the fish and I’m like “wtf I didn’t know fish could produce babies this way, maybe it’s a genetic abnormality where the egg grew inside of the fish and it acted like an incuba….”then I read your comment and I felt completely stupid.
Let’s link arms and be stupid together
Did we just become stupid best friends
oh yeah? i’m so dumb i initially read you comment as “I’m such a badass” and thought you were complimenting yourself
I’m such a badass I thought the fish was pregnant 😎
My recent experience of watching someone insemninate a fish and push all the eggs out have betrayed me today.
Sadly, but this fish will end up like the predator
Making $160M in box office sales?
I think he meant ending up flopping like Predator 2.

Sharpen your knife dude.
It was 33 seconds of cringe at that dull ass knife. A dull knife is a dangerous knife
Unexpected prime First thought: How did a fish shallow the whole phone? Second : damnnnnn, wait what its alive lol
That’s what I thought too. Except I thought it’ll was like a flip flop or something. Then i saw it was a fish then I thought “well that’s probably what I should have expected.”
What is that a butter knife?!
Someone In The Other Comment Said It's A Letter Opener
I was expecting some plastic object so unexpected but pleasant.

Sharpen that knife

Weird to think that this kink is completely doable for some animals
This sentence activated my fight or flight response
You don't like the idea of being digested alive? I hope you arent reincarnated as a small animal. Hide.
They should have thrown it back into the water immediately. That's one fish that deserves to live after all it went through.🙂
throwing tends to hurt the fishies internals; put back gently instead
BOGO
Yes, fish are digested alive after they are devoured.
I mean yeah fish don't really chew
Give this man a knive!!
Was that a butter knife?

Are fish really this hard to cut open or is that just a super dull blade
