With munching on live possums on camera being so last month’s fad, it seems like the thing Australians like to do now is to force possums to smoke weed.
In a video uploaded to Reddit, a couple of guys decided to get a possum high by lighting up a joint and holding it near its face. After a few seconds, the possum recoils – presumably in disgust – and lets out a feral scream just as the video ends.
Now I’m not embedding such a deplorable video here so click here if you want to watch it for some reason. Otherwise you can have some kittens instead.
Now some may laugh at this but this is a textbook case of animal cruelty as some small animals don’t take to weed as well as humans. Plus it’s, you know, incredibly irresponsible to force drugs onto an innocent possum.
So to all those thinking about lighting up a doob and getting a possum high, go do something else because not only does the mere thought of doing it make you a dick, being cruel to animals will net you a big fine and potentially some jail time.
To those two douchebags in the video, you’ve just set a new low for Australia, congrats.
Setting the bar ever lower.
Here’s an idea, go and spend all your free time playing The Sims 4 or go work on your audition for the Aussie production of Hamilton and leave the poor wildlife alone.
