Don't mention "the incident"!

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

The one from Beavers and Butthead?

Bieber is German for beaver. Finally someone made the connection.

"Bi(e)ber" is German for "Beaver"

Does justin bieber vary in height so much that they had to specify using his ‘average height’?

[–] Aremel@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

People vary in height throughout the day due to spine compression. You are at the tallest in the morning before your spine has had time to compress. Adults get shorter as they age largely due to the same phenomenon taking place over many years.

But I think that says "average human" and not "average height".

Bieber for scale

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 weeks ago

Next the beavers will be saying that they're bigger than Jesus Christ.

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 3 points 3 weeks ago

This reads like a No Such Thing As A Fish fact

[–] kraftpudding@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Am I the only one confused because the beaver is clearly shorter than the Bieber?

[–] Routhinator@startrek.website 2 points 3 weeks ago

Bigger != taller explicitly

[–] Num10ck@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago

which one did Winona have?

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

They were going to say "bigger than Jesus" but it was deemed too controversial.

[–] fossilesque@mander.xyz 1 points 3 weeks ago

Bigger than wrestling!

[–] CodexArcanum@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Bigger than Bieber, the old beaver brushed the broken lever while brandishing a bloody cleaver

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Why is the beaver smaller than Bieber?

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

But could they sing as good as him? Scientists say probably.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Thank god they didn't use metric, I wouldn't have understood

[–] itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 weeks ago
