Some Super Genius Invented A Wheelchair For His Gold Fish Who Couldn't Stay Upright (He Taped A Cork To It's Back)

Metro- Do you remember when goldfish used to be given away as prizes at fairs to children, despite the very real possibility that the child would drop it on the way home, wouldn’t have a tank to put it in or would simply be negligent? Clearly, some people have very little regard for the humble goldfish. Not this person. Reddit user leability built what he calls a ‘goldfish wheelchair’ for a fish that was having trouble staying upright. The ‘wheelchair’ consists of a tape or bandage wrapped around the underside of the fish and attached to a cork, which functions as a floating device. If the greatness of a nation can be judged by the way its animals are treated, as Mahatma Gandhi famously claimed, then the home of leability and his disabled fish must be some sort of utopia.

So I can’t ell if the guy who made this was serious or not but it’s funny either way.  If he’s serious, then it’s the funniest thing I’ve seen in awhile.  I just picture him excitedly calling all of his friends that he invented a device that will make him and his future generations of off spring filthy rich: The Gold Fish Wheelchair.  He spent all day and all alight working on it and he finally perfected it.  It took hours upon days upon months but he finally figured it out.  The final product? Just wrap a piece of tape around the gold fish and then, at the top, put a cork and the mother fucker floats!  Genius!  Time to start mass producing these bad boys and buying yachts and shit.

You know how the thing now on the interwebs and social media is #(enter a race or section of people who feel they aren’t treated fairly or justly by the rest of society, mostly by police officers)LivesMatter?  Well that does not apply to gold fish.  Gold fish lives don’t matter.  That sounds harsh but gold fish cost like a nickel or maybe even less than that.  That’s the most impractical part about the Gold Fish Wheelchair.  We can switch them in and out at the drop of a hat and not feel remorse. If I had a gold fish who couldn’t stay upright you know what I’d do?  Flush him down the toilet and buy 500 more for $3.
