  • Lmao I basically did this as a kid on the school bus.

    Bus driver forgot my stop(Small school, so we were dropped off directly at our house). It wasn’t until the last kid besides me was dropped off that I realized the driver wasn’t just taking a weird route that day, and it wasn’t until we got to the FUCKING BUS YARD that I actually popped my head over the seat and made my presence known.

    To explain why I didn’t say anything, I lied and pretended I had been asleep the whole time and had just woken up

    It’s fake, but that’s not why. The package is blocking the door handle from turning, so it doesn’t matter which way the door opens, trying to will jam the handle up on the package.

    It’s fake because this is the inside of the door, not the outside. Notice the lock for the deadbolt.



  • There isn’t any animal that is even remotely comparable in intelligence to what we see Pokemon capable of, so it’s not really fair to make that comparison.

    Dolphins and Chimpanzees are widely considered the next most intelligent species after us, but they’re still far below us. You can teach a Chimp basic sign language, but you still can’t have a proper conversation with them, let alone come up with complex plans with them.

    By comparison, Meowth is not only capable of all that, he’s better at it than J&J; iirc, most of their plans that almost succeeded were his ideas. Plus he’s extremely capable at subterfuge, considering he once successfully convinced Ash & Co. that he was done with Team Rocket and gained their trust, only for it to be yet another scheme. Not to mention his ability to operate highly complex machinery.

    And mind you, there’s zero indication that Team Rocket’s Meowth is any more intelligent than any other Meowth, he’s just vastly more ambitious. They very clearly show that his more human like tendencies are a conscious choice, not something inherent to him. Other Meowths could learn English, they just choose not to(and at least one thinks TR Meowth is weird for doing so).
