There’s definitely something a little bit fishy about the contents of this fridge.
Us humans can be forgiven for occasionally having lapses in memory and leaving strange things like the car keys inside of the fridge, or not noticing that the milk actually expired a month ago. What Japanese Twitter user @mebaruazi recently uncovered in his parents’ spare fridge, however, certainly takes the cake for unexpected and downright bizarre discoveries:
外にある冷蔵庫開けてみたら、、、
— 田んぼで一回転 rider WOLF° (@mebaruazi) May 10, 2019
親父ぃぃぃぃぃぃぃぃ!何しとんねんwww
たしかに新鮮野菜室かもしれないけど、ちょっと新鮮すぎやしませんか!?
しかも最後に親父が渓流行ってから1週間も経ってますけど!? pic.twitter.com/kcYSNcDNpk
“When I opened our extra fridge, I screamed, ‘Daaaaad! What the hell!!’
It’s true that we’ve got a fresh vegetable room but don’t you think that this is a little too fresh!? To top it off, it’s been over a week since my dad visited the mountain stream.”
Hiding in one of the lower drawers was none other than a small fish. Take note: a swimming, LIVE fish. That’s certainly not something you see every day inside of a kitchen appliance!
▼ Had @mebaruazi been a cat and not a person, we imagine his immediate reaction would have been something less akin to incredulity and more akin to delight.
Many net users were tickled by the scene, while others were left scratching their heads:
“So it’s a substitute fish tank…?”
“I wish I had a parent that would do something ridiculous like this!”
“Tell him to be careful of the dehumidification and evaporation of water caused by the compressor’s heat, as well as of electrical accidents and mold.”
“Geniuses like this think up the next big inventions of tomorrow.”
“I wonder what the inside smells like now.”
In one comment reply, @mebaruazi noted that “There were originally three fish…and now there’s one. They’re delicious,” so we can probably safely assume that his father wholeheartedly appreciated his mountain stream catch over dinner some night. Next time, maybe he can take this cat fishing as well.
