[u/Illustrious_Ad4691 → u/inspirationalSloth]

Vote for Pedro

[u/Pergod → u/Illustrious_Ad4691]

We in Peru did vote for Pedro. He in jail now.

[u/Mlabonte21 → u/Illustrious_Ad4691]

He’ll make all your dreams come true

[u/echo_nightmare_black → u/inspirationalSloth]

I thought this and was certain it would already be mentioned.

[u/adorablefuzzykitten → u/inspirationalSloth]

Very presidential.

[u/Separate_Finance_183]

Lil' bro has better hair than me 😭

[u/ChymChymX → u/Separate_Finance_183]

The question is how did he afford a flight from Peru to Turkey to get his procedure.

[u/TransportationNo7341 → u/[deleted]]

🤣🤣🤣

[u/PatientStations → u/[deleted]]

Bro got the international hair transplant package, donor included. 😭

[u/balls4xx → u/[deleted]]

Then he became donor kebab

[u/Mr-_-Soandso → u/ChymChymX]

Maybe she's born with it?

[u/Tricky_Football_6586 → u/Mr-_-Soandso]

That remark stands Head & Shoulders above the rest.

[u/Warm_tamperture32 → u/Mr-_-Soandso]

Maybe she's cavia Porcellene

[u/Comfortable_Ninja842 → u/Mr-_-Soandso]

Maybe it's Maybelline.

[u/MaleficentPlate69 → u/ChymChymX]

Turkish Hairlines had a sale recently.

[u/badgerj → u/ChymChymX]

Same way Paddington did? 🤣🤣💀

[u/Relative_Yesterday70 → u/ChymChymX]

Have you heard of Peruvian marching powder?

[u/One_Advantage793 → u/Separate_Finance_183]

I seriously thought it was a video of someone brushing out some kind of partial wig or toupee when I first saw it.

Edited to fix the common phone fat finger ai instead of I because people keep telling me not to pay attention to AI. Jeez! Mistake purely my own human brain!

[u/DieselHouseCat → u/One_Advantage793]

His name can just be Toupee.

[u/CHSummers → u/DieselHouseCat]

Ahem. Hair System.

[u/One_Advantage793 → u/DieselHouseCat]

Perfect!

[u/Corfiz74 → u/One_Advantage793]

I thought it was Cousin Itt from the Adams Family.

[u/HousingAny2946 → u/One_Advantage793]

Me too

[u/lord-dinglebury → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Lil' bro is like a tiny walking Pantene commercial.

[u/sinisterdesign → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Cannnnnnn I wear a Guinea pig on my head? 🤔

[u/RoboDae → u/sinisterdesign]

An alternate Ratatouille

[u/ImSolidGold → u/sinisterdesign]

"Sir, your wig squeeks." "Jerry, stop squeeking!" "Squeeks"

[u/shroomiedoo → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Bros hair is glossy as fuck

[u/Bluecif → u/Separate_Finance_183]

That's a living wig....

[u/solid-mayonnaise → u/Bluecif]

Guinea wig

[u/bc_gamez → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Train him to sit still on your head. Do you know Spanish?

[u/froggz01 → u/bc_gamez]

Siéntate en mi cabeza, Peluca.

[u/Kingkongcrapper → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Gets paid to be a living toupee on the weekends.

[u/efcomovil → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Lil bro has hair

Sad bald noises

[u/LurkerFromTheVoid → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Cuy Fabio has entered the Chat.

BTW:

In Latin America, cuy (spelled cui in some regional variants) most commonly refers to the guinea pig, a domesticated rodent native to the Andean region that is traditionally raised and eaten as a high-protein delicacy.

[u/shadoeweever → u/LurkerFromTheVoid]

Found the Fabio joke, I feel better now. Little guy just needs to watch out for geese

[u/No-Arugula8122 → u/LurkerFromTheVoid]

Delicioso

[u/ArmpitofD00m → u/Separate_Finance_183]

No problem, my guy will sit up top comfortably and make it look like a fine center part.

[u/HyenDry → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Lil bro looks like me

[u/pratpulsar → u/Separate_Finance_183]

Lil bro eats pure protein...

[u/marleiahxdayze]

ITS NOT A PHASE MOM

[u/GreenExperiments → u/marleiahxdayze]

It’s called an aesthetic, MOM. You just don’t understand my vision.

[u/nicoznico → u/GreenExperiments]

Bro looks like Cousin Itt from Adams Family

[u/RockstarAgent → u/nicoznico]

I want to know its hair routine. My hair ain’t as shiny and lustrous.

[u/lightr3nd → u/RockstarAgent]

Soul Glo'!

... I think he'd rock in product commercial! Just put him in front of a fan on a slowly rotating table and let the camera loose on this handsome mf.

[u/DukeOfGeek → u/RockstarAgent]

No one must ever know my horrible secret

[u/gorginhanson → u/marleiahxdayze]

nice try OP i recognize a Maybelline ad when I see one

[u/SeanOfTheDead1313 → u/marleiahxdayze]

Because tonight will be the night that I fall for yew

[u/marleiahxdayze → u/SeanOfTheDead1313]

OVER AGAIIIIIN, don’t mayhke me change moi mind

[u/inspectorseantime → u/SeanOfTheDead1313]

>tonoight

>noight

FTFY

[u/CH49FE]

And he cleans the floors as he walks too!

[u/Dry_Peen15 → u/CH49FE]

I'm thinking the entire underside of that thing is covered with piss and shit

[u/unlikemike123 → u/Dry_Peen15]

Probably not this specific one but other longhairs that don't get brushed every 30 seconds might lol

[u/Hyperaeon2 → u/unlikemike123]

This one is way too groomed for that. 💅💇

[u/xdianaaxx → u/unlikemike123]

They get dirty so fast. My log haired guinea pig gets a butt trim every now and then

[u/Kazodex → u/Dry_Peen15]

I mean, that’s just rodents in general

[u/unleashtheraven1]

Is that where toupees come from?

[u/doctormink → u/unleashtheraven1]

Right? It’s like a little wig with legs!

[u/No-Respond-900 → u/doctormink]

don’t wear it atop your head or a harpy eagle might snatch it and expose your dome

[u/Recent-Singer8146 → u/[deleted]]

I like the lore and world building of living toupees

[u/Kitchen_Implement23 → u/unleashtheraven1]

Is this a tupee farm?

[u/AmputeeHandModel → u/unleashtheraven1]

*Toupees, no apo'strophe's for plural's.

[u/Secure-Net4296]

My goodness 🥰❤️‍🔥

[u/AaronicNation]

Looks like Cousin It's dog.

[u/Just_Periwinkle → u/[deleted]]

Looks like it.

[u/InvictvsNox]

That is a guinea wig.

[u/efrav → u/[deleted]]

Here in Colombia they are called Cuys, close enough to cuyos lol

[u/TreeDollarFiddyCent → u/InvictvsNox]

Maybe she's born with it.

[u/SnooTangerines7026]

No, that's a tribble.

[u/Buzz1ight → u/SnooTangerines7026]

At least they scare off the Klingons.

[u/whiff_EK → u/SnooTangerines7026]

I don't know hardly anything about Star Trek at all and I still said "Isn't that a tribble?"

[u/SPECTRE-Agent-No-13 → u/SnooTangerines7026]

And Scotty beamed them to the Klingon ship, where they would be no tribble at all.

[u/elMurpherino → u/SnooTangerines7026]

Looks like trouble.

[u/LazyAssHiker]

Looks like Kat Williams

[u/DavieStBaconStan → u/LazyAssHiker]

Taller than him too

[u/AcanthisittaGlobal30 → u/LazyAssHiker]

Put a bedazzled purple pimp hat and cane and got the whole look

[u/jjnib]

Don't they eat them there?

[u/waluigieWAAH → u/jjnib]

They were domesticated to be food. Then the Europeans came and made them pets

[u/MaddysinLeigh → u/waluigieWAAH]

Iirc Europeans only kept them as pets after also using them as food.

[u/Julesvernevienna → u/MaddysinLeigh]

you were also summoned by a friend?🤣

[u/MaddysinLeigh → u/Julesvernevienna]

No I just get recommended Guinea pig stuff a lot

[u/L_Cranston_Shadow → u/waluigieWAAH]

Probably one of the least evil things Europeans did down there.

[u/Katin-ka → u/jjnib]

They do.

[u/MaleficentPlate69 → u/jjnib]

Once you shave it, there isn’t much left to eat though.

[u/Skratt79 → u/MaleficentPlate69]

These things are so fat calorie dense 1 feeds 4 people, you need to eat potatoes with them to absorb the fat. They are the gamiest little buggers too.

[u/MaleficentPlate69 → u/Skratt79]

Thanks for the insight, but I never thought about eating a guinea pig. But I like tats.

[u/wezelboy → u/jjnib]

Not sure about Peru, but definitely in Ecuador.

[u/dolemutt]

Chewbacca with four legs

[u/Realistic_Habit8909 → u/dolemutt]

Thank you! Can’t believe no one else saw this

[u/El_Dief → u/dolemutt]

Baby Yoda, meet baby Chewie.

[u/grungegoth]

I unknowingly ate guinea pig at a hotel buffet in Quito

tastes like ... small birds, or chicken

[u/CitizenHuman → u/grungegoth]

My dad also unknowingly ate it like 40 years ago. He was told it was rabbit.

[u/slackfrop → u/CitizenHuman]

Yeah, cuy. Very common in Peru. I declined trying it.

[u/Wasatcher → u/CitizenHuman]

My sister and I had pet rabbits growing up but we ate all the offspring. My dad told her it was chicken in the rabbit stew for years until she came home from school early one day while we were halfway through butchering them 😭. After the secret was out we had whole rabbit and she ate something else lol

[u/KancroVantas → u/Wasatcher]

Oh that first sentence cracked me up! Is so messed up! Addams family vibes.

“Oh we had pets! We just ate all their children”

record scratch

[u/highfiveselfoh → u/CitizenHuman]

I really don’t like eating meat much less exploring types I’m not used to…I’d be so sad to unknowingly eat guinea pig.

[u/Hilton5star → u/highfiveselfoh]

Well, it is what they were bred for.

[u/stillsympin → u/Hilton5star]

Yeah it's the same as keep rabbits for meat. Very common in that area, especially the further you get from touristy stuff.

[u/Ha1lStorm → u/CitizenHuman]

My dad tricked me into eating calf fries / Rocky Mountain oysters as a kid. I thought they were delicious until he told me what they were.

[u/VascoJSC → u/grungegoth]

They were originally domesticated for meat. They eat grass (which humans cannot) and turn the indigestable fibers of tough mountain grasses into protein, they also grow quickly and reproduce quickly. Makes sense the Andean cultures would domesticate them.

[u/TheStarsMist → u/VascoJSC]

One thing many don't think of about this cultural staple of many South American countries is that they also do not have access to large grazing pastures. It is easier to raise the small mammals vs the flat acerage needs of big mammals. I haven't had cuy yet either.

Though when you look at this based on topography being far more varied it makes sense why they raise them for meat.

[u/TheGrundleGrabber → u/VascoJSC]

I’m not vegan and probably never will be, but your comment made me think: if we invented a machine that could create food out of inedible substances, we’d consider it an incredible scientific breakthrough.

This is essentially how we use many livestock animals: as biological machines that convert grass and otherwise unusable plant matter into food. I don’t know that I feel great about that. I’d never thought of it in those terms before reading your comment. I know that’s not what you were getting at, but this shit lowkey fucked me up.

[u/Throwitaway252501 → u/TheGrundleGrabber]

Many animals have the same issue and it's why they eat meat. It's natural for us to eat meat, and there's nothing morally wrong with that Biology. The issue is, we know how to raise and butcher meat ethically, but we don't because that costs more money than capitalism is willing to part with. People should try to eat less meat and choose more sustainable meats where they can, not because eating meat itself is wrong, but the production of meat under capitalism is unethical. 

[u/TheGrundleGrabber → u/Throwitaway252501]

Great comment. I think reducing consumption is ideal because it seems quite possible that even under a more ethical economic system, it may be infeasible to ethically produce the required amount of meat.

[u/Forward-Variety-8440 → u/Throwitaway252501]

this begs the question, is there any ethical consumption under capitalism?

[u/MagicCaps69420 → u/TheGrundleGrabber]

We’re so removed from knowing what it’s like to harvest animals for food. I don’t mean to be graphic but for example it breaks my heart every time I put a knife through a lobster’s head to make a lobster roll. I grew up with chickens too and when we would kill them to eat was always awful. If you eat meat I think that’s something you should experience just to know what happens if you choose to consume animal products.

[u/Western_Scenario → u/grungegoth]

They call it “cuy” in Perú.

[u/ceviche-hot-pockets → u/grungegoth]

I couldn’t bring myself to eat one while in Peru or Bolivia. Llama, on the other hand…is pretty damn tasty lol.

[u/KimJongKillest]

I feel Puerto Rican with this hair

[u/SuperFrylock → u/KimJongKillest]

Ricaaaan! Bidi bidi bidi bidi...

Nah, this is definitely Cousin What, Itt's son.

[u/DianeDesRivieres]

Sadly, no squeek.

[u/EveRPGames → u/DianeDesRivieres]

I turned the sound on for the trills! My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

[u/yupyupnopewhat → u/DianeDesRivieres]

I turned the volume way up, hoping

[u/Appathesamurai]

That is one handsome little man

[u/Je_suis_miserable]

You mean my new wig

Can you train him to sit still on my head?

Can't fool me, that's a newborn wookie.

[u/RutabagaUnlucky3420 → u/NerdizardGo]

Had to scroll way far down for this. 

getting all solo action with that hair day

[u/Several-Squash9871]

Would have been funny if it was just someone poking their head through the top of the table when they panned around to the front. 

[u/Mslabarre → u/Several-Squash9871]

I was pretty sure that was what I was about to see.

For several minutes now, I’ve been sitting here trying to decide if I am more disappointed, because I was wrong, or glad, because it was actually a cute little critter…🙃

[u/CitizenHuman]

Can this be donated? Asking for a friend.

[u/Day32JustAMyrKat → u/CitizenHuman]

Locks of Love.

[u/Ill_Maintenance_362]

It’s a coronet guinea pig. It has one rosette on its crown. A peruvian guinea pig has 2-3 rosettes to cause the hair to grow over the head and cover the face/eyes. A silkie guinea pig has no rosettes and the hair flows smoothly back from the crown.

[u/Toad-a-sow]

Quick! Grab a pan flute!

[u/The96kHz]

I'M SO STARTLED!
