AIBU to suggest this lino just wants to eat people

Every 15 mins on the morning news we are getting this video

and the news reader is giving the wise words of 'Don't take your child to the zoo dressed as an animal'

That kid is not dressed as animal & I don't think the lion is confusing it for a baby zebra.

The lion just wants to eat the baby

I love the vision of a roll of lino engulfing people and then giving a massive cartoon- type belch... Grin

I'm hoping for a link to some interesting floor covering.

I can't view without a link.

I love the way the kid is not even slightly interested in the lion.

I clicked on this thread because I was intrigued by the idea of human eating lino. I'm all disappointed now.

Scary how it would just fit in it his mouth if it got through, don't think I'd leave my baby sat there even through glass!

I thought that wishi!

LOL...you've just reminded me of a friend of mine who had a really fluffy bright purple carpet.

Policemen came in after he had a car accident one day and looked at the carpet and asked "What do you feed your carpet?"

"Coppers" was my mates reply.

I was also hoping for a ravenous kitchen floor :(

I think that clips cool :)

QuintessentialShadows · 04/05/2012 09:48
Confused

PMSL!

Never though that a floor could have that "look".

I am now desperately trying to imagine what a floor that looks like it would eat people looks like.

Dinosaurs on the rampage, in 3d effect?

SomethingSuitablyWitty · 04/05/2012 09:50

I was also intrigued by the idea of the lino just waiting for its chance. Wouldn't surprise me. I hate lino.

But I did also like the clip. Smile

I loved it and he was wearing a stripey top so they suggested he was a zebra nothing wrong with that it was daybreak , really cheered me up this morning the lino Grin did look v hungry Wink

OTheHugeManatee · 04/05/2012 12:10

It's probably a bit weird that I feel slightly sorry for that lion. I have similar feelings sometimes walking past Patisserie Valerie, though I'd probably draw the line at scrabbling and gnawing on the shop window.

Mrsjay · 04/05/2012 12:12

othehugemanitee that made me Grin yes i did feel a bit sorry for the lion but i guess its enrichment for her Wink

CrispyCod · 04/05/2012 14:07

Although I'm happy the child is ok I can't help feeling sad for the lion. Poor thing has natural instincts to hunt and it's stuck in it's zoo prison.

ripsishere · 04/05/2012 14:13

I thought it would be a big hole in the floor that you could just sweep rubbish into. Very disappointing.
Poor lion too.

CrispyCod · 04/05/2012 14:23

I'm jealous of this guy, I would love to do

Empusa · 04/05/2012 15:22

Brilliant typo Grin
