I saw a reddit post of a dude who LIKES sand in the bed and was asking for advice on sand in the bed. Like... the best sand and where to buy. For his bed. He wants sand on his sheets. While he lays on them.
WHO WOULD LIKE THAT? That is horrible.
I can imagine it in a clean and coarse on silk scratch your back sort of way.
Not for me tho never going to try it.
Yeah, if the sand magically just affected the middle of your back, your calves, and feet, it'd be actually pretty neat. But the moment it goes into a crevice, joint, face, crack, then shit gets real tormentuous.
The rash from the sand scraping and scratching ewwww
Use a nice 2000 grit then move up to a 5000 to really get the shine going.
Just get finer sand ¯\(ツ)/¯
At what point do you enter mesothelioma territory of particles?
Whenever it'd be the funniest, of course.
I live near the beach so it’s a pretty common occurrence unfortunately
At the beach, I am the person that has to strip and shower, put clothes in double plastic bags, then vigoursly vacuum vehicle before going back home. Sand is fun, as long as sand stays where it is supposed to be!
sandpaper lol
is the effect sand on a bed would have
i think they'd be better off buying a tub with a good plug and just have that filled with sand or something that they could fit in comfortably
It’s passive whole body exfoliation, without damaging chemicals.
There maybe something to this
maybe, just dont turn into a mummy from staying in the sand bath for too long.
think i saw that happen ina comic awhile ago, i forget which one tho.
oh i remembered!
it was konosuba
So like a human sized chinchila sand bowl.
yeah!
Saw this right after I saw your comment.
I could envision someone sleeping in a sandbox with very fine and clean sand, only sand, like they are taking a nap on the beach, and groove themselves in.
It would be weird, but i could see an appeal.
I cannot imagine someone putting sand into a bed, mixed up in the sheets like they had a one night stand with a Spiderman villain.
He’s obviously a very sick twisted individual
His mom is probably a skink please don't judge
Like those sociopaths that like wet socks.
Number one advice: don't do anything sexual in your sand bed.
"Master Scincus scincus, there are too many of them. What are we going to do?"
Anakin: 🤬
Non-Master ranks hate this one trick.
“It polishes my eyes too”
The way the dude just throws him on the sand 😭
forreal, skinkyboi thinks he's cooked already why try and hide
man vionentely throbs snooty samd salmanander (he dies)
i thought it was going to be coated with breadcrumbs and flour and thrown into the pan
Love how the second time he tries to goad him into burrowing back in the sand, the skink's like...."Well...what's the point, asshole? We both know you're just going to yank me out again".
He just sits there... Then the guy picks him back up and the skink waves his little arm like "FINE FINE I'll do the thing just stop picking me up geez!"
Thank you I love it
Skink: I wasn't put here to perform for you.
Handler: Um....
Handler: It's Shai-Hulud
The thumbnail made me think he was going to bread and fry that thing - had to double check it wasn't a cooking subreddit
Breaded dragon?
Chamealeon
I thought it was flour too xD
Yup same here. Thought this was going to be one of those weird food prep clips
I love that little encouragement for the skink to burrow just to dig it back out. I can imagine the attitude it's giving the handler.
I think he's okay with it. He likes everything!
Peak scientific name
I love it when the scientific name is basically just two names
Shout out to gorilla gorilla gorilla
I thought that was flour and he was about to fry his ass.
Do you want sandworms? This is how you get sandworms.
the spice must flow
“Bro can you please knock it the fuck off?”
Don't scare the lil bro 😞
Cool, little dude!
Do you bother it like this all day long?
Your skink seems to be laggy. Is he okay?
The home version of Shai-Halud
I wonder if this was the inspiration for the "sand trout" in Dune...
The model for the thing in Beelejuice
Tbh that's kind of cruel.
i don't like the way you pinch and drop them like that, they don't fall out of the sky in nature.
They do actually. I’m not sure about sand skinks but those dudes fall all the time and plop back up to bolt after prey or get someplace safe.
They’re so goofy.
Source: sometimes have them in my house.
I have multiple skinks, and yeah they fall off high tops only when out of their element (ie. in your house and that's why good care takers tell you not to leave them on table tops when handling). They literaly hug the ground when they move. yes, they are goofy and hardy litte fellas, but that's why us as caretakers try and give them an environment they are native to. this skinkyboi literally thrives underground lol
Oh for sure. And I was thinking that these guys’ environments are underground, which is different than my garden ones (somewhat). Also wasn’t trying to justify the handling. Just probably more traumatizing/annoying than any potential injuries.
Actually tbh the derps around me most likely don’t fall from any significant heights. Even though they don’t nec burrow, they’re still predatory chasers. No intention of leaving the earth these guys lol
definitely opportunistic eaters, but yeah they like the ground instead of skydiving (at his size scale lol)
they don’t? interesting. flat earth just got superflat

Star trek, the wrath of Khan
Okay buddy do it again for the camera.
I don't wanna
Blessed is the maker and his water.
I present to you, the Shei Hulud of the deep desert
The way it crosses its hands after being pulled from the sand is killing me
Dune music intensifies
Do they smell or does the poo smell too horrible?
yes and no, just keep their cage clean.
Scincus scincus. The skink so nice they named him twice!
He soon became Tremor.
I've heard the bigger sand trout can be worn like gloves? Just don't wear a suit of them for long.
He can beat Darth Vader
How do they breathe down there?
.....very carefully?
He likes sand (:
Beetlejuice
Cute
Are you watching how it’s done, “I can’t see you, so you can’t see me” spider?
Jeez, let the scincus scink
Pulling the little guy out by his tail? I've seen far too many lizards drop their tail for less.
I love their completely waterproof skin, it's satisfying to watch
I prefer the Scottish Cullen Skink
Funny lil guy
Dude thinks he’s slick. Ok he is.
its not a fucking toy bitchboy
I read it as sneakus sneakus and you won’t convince me otherwise
and it tastes delicious according to Bear Gryls
Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse..
Damn sand worms, am I right.
Skink stink stank.
With the video thumbnail, I thought this was a recipe for a deep fried lizard.
I spend too much time on /r/stupidfood
Should be called “Sneakus sneakus”
Should call it Anakin
The Shalai'thud
I thought you were gonna throw him into a bowl of eggs finish the dredge in penko and fry the mother lol … dangers of joining cooking and aquarium subs at the same time
Can humans just stop messing about with animals for like 5 minutes - Every animal ever
I follow so many cooking subs, legit thought he was dredging it and about to fry it up.
So relieved.
Such a cute li'l lizard! 🦎☺️
Shai-Hulud!
I knew a few skanks in my time
You will kill this animal if you keep picking it up and teasing it.
Yummy 🤤
Girl now why I thought y’all was about to fry that poor baby
I see that mf bit the shit out your hand already.
They know a thing or two bc they’ve seen a thing or two
Always wanted a sandfish
But why he cute though? 🥹
That's really cool
Fat ass nothing
I hate skinks
