Absolute Units

Things that you’re in awe at the size of.

Absolute Unit: an Animal, Public Figure or Object who is larger than one would normally expect.

Rules

Absolute units, not normal units. More detailed definitions here

No creepshots / fat shaming pics allowed. Mainly the subjects are animals, but big foods and objects, like statues, are also allowed. If you are submitting humans, only public figures are allowed, and not only to showcase that they are fat, they must be also large in stature; no harassment or creepshots; fat-shaming is strictly prohibited.

while mild NSFW stuff is allowed (as long as its put in it's own tag when posting), anything more than that (and borderline NSFL) is straight up banned. This includes stuff that is sexual in nature, gory, anything not very palpable for the eyes.

Don't forget to follow the rules in your server

There was more energy spent to move the pliers than there was to remove the nail.

Right? A claw hammer would have handled that job better. Maybe it would be useful for larger spikes but talk about overkill.

It's like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut

I thought they were on the way to remove the biggest, thiccest nail forged by humankind.

I see you've found my toenail clippers.
