      Looking like recursion with organs: all organs placed inside a large-intestine-like animal. And if it swallowed a mouse, another set of organs, and if that mouse swallowed … etc

      I don’t know what I was expecting, I suppose obviously all their organs would be long and thin logically, but I was expecting something else.

            There’s no need to be such an ass when it’s a super valid question about compared anatomy. And indeed, that user is correct: “what diaphragm?” snakes do not have one, they rely on large smooth muscle between the ribs.

              I’m sure this is a woosh. Let me rephrase the thread.

              A can’t imagine a snake’s diaphragm.

              What diaphragm? (There is no diaphragm)

              Stupid silly! This is the diaphragm: [not the diaphragm we’re looking for]

                I’m incredibly sad for both the fact that you believe that in any way you had a funny “punchline” or “joke” in there, and for the lack of general snake facts posted here

                If it’s a joke it’s a shitty joke.

                If it’s not you’re just doubling down.

                Barring all that being a douchebag to people who don’t “get” your brilliant fuckin joke is… Douchebag activity who could have guessed?

                    I don’t need to it says it’s the contraceptive in the url.

                    No one didn’t get the shitty joke, people have an issue with the shitty way they set it up.

                    Here’s a fun one, did… did you read the rest of the comment chain before asking redundant questions?

                    You’re clearly not checking usernames, you didn’t insult me.

                    No one asked you for anything boss so the answer would be nothing, find a way to not be a prick to setup a shitty joke i guess?
