Since when did /r/WTF turn into guinea pigs having baths?

[–]aco620 40 points41 points ago

This isn't /r/guineapigshavingbaths? I really need to get my subreddit subscriptions in order...

[–]vodkamartini 8 points9 points ago

You could've gotten major bonus points if you had actually created this subreddit

[–]aco620 16 points17 points ago*

Yeah, but how many pictures of guinea pigs having baths do you really think are out there? Let's check Google...1,400,000 results huh...that's....that's a lot of karma potential...I'll be right back...

Edit: COUGH Uhhh...yeah, so, I'd like to invite you to my new subreddit, if you're interested there buddy! It's called /r/guineapigshavingbaths! Come join the party!

[–]vodkamartini 7 points8 points ago

That's enough for there to be a rule 34!

[–]vdubbzxii 2 points3 points ago

Well tbh, this is sorta a wtf. right now, the guinea pigs think they're at the "spa" but in reality they're being put in hot boiling water, so that their fur comes out easily. Next step is the last... they become food. TRUST ME IM PERUVIAN

[–]Keyboardin 3 points4 points ago

That's amazing how they can stand to put their hands in hot boiling water.

My new home!

[–]_R2-D2_ 15 points16 points ago

Oh God, for a second there I thought they all had their boobs out.

[–]benson42 1 point2 points ago

Dont feel bad that was my first thought also.

[–]OccupyDemonoid 26 points27 points ago

Why does that one person not have their's? What happened? Why aren't you answering? OH GOD, MR. BUTTERWORTHS IS TOO YOUNG TO DIE!

[–]lazyatheist 4 points5 points ago

That one has already dissolved.

[–]OccupyDemonoid -1 points0 points ago

Mr. Butterworths is too young to die. :(

[–]possumopossum 8 points9 points ago

Guinea pig Lamaze/water birth class. May they all have healthy little, tiny guinea pigs.

[–]nomnomchikhan 15 points16 points ago

This is too cute for /r/wtf! :D

[–]Zeroman64 6 points7 points ago

Those are fish.

[–]Lampmonster1 33 points34 points ago

Actually, the guinea pig is eaten in Peru, not China. Yes, they really eat them.

[–]shitterplug 29 points30 points ago

I've eaten it, nothing spectacular. Tastes just like puppy.

[–]Lampmonster1 1 point2 points ago

That's about what I would have guessed. If they were tasty they'd have likely spread as a common food.

[–]paintedcones 1 point2 points ago

Quite tasty- like a fattier, richer, pork. One is surprisingly filling and followed by a shot of pisco. Mmhmm.

[–]iconfuseyou 2 points3 points ago

Well guinea pigs were originally domesticated as a cheap source of meat, so yes.

[–]Lampmonster1 3 points4 points ago

I am aware. It's just that many people find the idea of eating rodents repellent for some reason. You should see the response I got last time I told Reddit that I eat squirrels.

Interesting side note: The Aztecs were one of few cultures to ever breed dogs for food. And since carnivores are terrible for efficient food animals, the dogs they bred were largely feed with vegetables and garbage.

[–]spotter300 17 points18 points ago

ah yes, delicious 'water' marinade, really adds flavour

[–]ardbeg 4 points5 points ago

washing prior to cooking.

[–]Citizen_Sn1ps 0 points1 point ago

Clearly you're from Ecuador.

[–]Misaria 3 points4 points ago

Now they're sealing guinea pigs in plastic bags?

[–]WKahle11 5 points6 points ago

Spa? I feel like you're trying to finish a word. Are you trying to say spaghetti? Are you taking me for a spaghetti day?

Mommy and guinea pig class

[–]JNDALOG 1 point2 points ago

Looks like someone dropped one

[–]RandomFrenchGuy 1 point2 points ago

Mutant hairy Japanese fish ?

[–]iBakeBabies 1 point2 points ago

Not sure if cute..... or animal cruelty.....

[–]ObeseSnake 2 points3 points ago

Or sanitary food preparation.

[–]iBakeBabies 0 points1 point ago

I prepare my meals this way too. Although it's a little hard because they start to kick and scream once their little feet hit the boiling water

[–]Bartelbythescrivener 1 point2 points ago

This is what micheal phelps sees after taking a rip

[–]Dookiestain_LaFlair 1 point2 points ago

In order for the kidnapped children to be turned into child soldiers, they must down a cute animal in a tub of water of be killed themselves.

[–]SammyDavisGoonior 1 point2 points ago

Cuy not done yet

[–]PENISWOLVES 1 point2 points ago

Ugh. Great. Thanks a lot. I wasn't planning on having a fap today, but now... unzips pants

[–]caxaar 1 point2 points ago

This isn't WTF, go home.

[–]ORDub 1 point2 points ago

That's actually a pool filled with lube. It makes it easier to get them up Richard Gere's ass that way.

[–]aco620 2 points3 points ago

Seems like this is the type of thing to stress those things out and give them all heart attacks. 5 little dead piggies floating in the water, resting at sea until the dog comes by and starts eating them.

[–]penisinthepeanutbttr 0 points1 point ago

god dammit now youre making me re subscribe to r/aww

[–]CompletelyInsane 0 points1 point ago

/r/guineapigs

[–]penisinthepeanutbttr 1 point2 points ago

thank you now i can avoid the sea of similar looking cats

[–]ambulanceonfire 0 points1 point ago

Invisible guinea pig!

[–]Fr4t 0 points1 point ago

Don't these kind of animals (like bunnies too) get a heart attack from bathing?

[–]TH0UGHTP0LICE 0 points1 point ago

The fuck?

[–]boatplane 0 points1 point ago

Is there underwater birth for g-pigs too?

[–]girlvinyl 0 points1 point ago

First the spa day, then the costumes. Then they eat them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l98aBSXYz7U

[–]chantistar 0 points1 point ago

This is too cute. I can hear Tracy Morgan's voice in this picture.

[–]LaurenFantastic 0 points1 point ago

Guinea pig water aerobics...interesting.

[–]itsoktobetakei 0 points1 point ago

umm..yummy

[–]ItsYourOpinionMan 0 points1 point ago

Are these the guineas in the Geico commercial?? Row, row, row.

[–]Palamede 0 points1 point ago

This is not WTF. Now if you like guinea pigs : http://alturl.com/ymfgt

[–]CosmicBard 0 points1 point ago

Guinea pigs should never be submerged in water.

They stress VERY easily, often to death and being submerged in water is a good way to make that happen.

[–]mquindlen81 0 points1 point ago

Just another day of gerbil bootcamp in preparation for crawling up some weird guys asshole

[–]mwatson162 0 points1 point ago

Pictured: guinea pigs being tenderized in preparation for that night's roast.

[–]Dante9934 0 points1 point ago

That isn't the spa.... Their preparing the April feast.

[–]eyeherpes 0 points1 point ago

Where's the spaghetti

[–]abandonfish 0 points1 point ago

Are you taking me for a spaghetti day?

[–]writtenmind 0 points1 point ago

Teaching the guineas how to swim?

[–]Massacre133 0 points1 point ago

its hamtoro time!

[–]knikkerz 0 points1 point ago

don't drown, bbz!

[–]dirtymoney 0 points1 point ago

they are just washing them before they kill & eat it.

Not joking. Seems guinea pig is quite the delicacy in Peru I think.

[–]d3us3xmachina 0 points1 point ago

I think this is just standard Peruvian meal preparation

[–]-abcd 0 points1 point ago

Fuck you for thinking this is WTF

[–]Ilikehair 0 points1 point ago

my heart ... it hurts.

[–]Skydu614 -1 points0 points ago

Yummy, soup

[–]peruvianredsoxfan -1 points0 points ago

They look so delicious...

[–]montexan -1 points0 points ago

What is this word, 'spa?' I feel like you're starting to say a word and not finishing it. Are you trying to say spaghetti? Are you taking me for a spaghetti day?

[–]skelente -2 points-1 points ago

Ah yes, cleaning the guinea pigs before they become this.

[–]Mikaeleo -1 points0 points ago

I see the cast of G-Force are living the high life now.
