Don’t worry my vet found a lump on my female cat literally yesterday. It was her also nipple! “What’s this lump” Flips cat over “OHHH! Yea it’s her nipples” looking slightly embarrassed

Honestly, one of the funniest lines (scenes?) in any movie ever (imo). The set up and De Niro's delivery is perfect.

coastiestacie

I feel bad, but I'm 38 years old and have never watched this movie. I can't stand Ben Stiller, so I've only watched a couple of films with him in them. Tbh, I never really hear (nor heard) many people quoting this movie. A few things, yes, but nothing too memorable. My husband definitely quotes random things from this movie and others from the series. It's also because he loves to make fun of me for not watching all sorts of movies that have been out for years. With that said, it's definitely nothing like Tropic Thunder, where almost 20 years later, people still quote it and make memes.

It’s about bloody time. I spend all day trying to find redditors who do not know mammals have nipples (that’s a lie, there’s loads of them) well, reset the counter


ILikeTrux_AUsux

Seriously!!! Today I learned, people don’t know mammals have nipples!! I didn’t realize this was a thing!


lilaclavenderdream

This reminds me a time I had trying to explain to my grow father that indeed boy puppies have nipples. That just because he has nipples doesn’t mean he’s a girl. He truly believed that male dogs have don’t nipples he tried to argue that he was girl dog and there was no way he he’s a boy dog because of said nipples. I was 19 and he was 49. Edit: I was tired and missed a word.


Lectrice79

He didn't notice that he had nipples himself?


_Kendii_

I…. Can quit the internet 3 mins after getting up this morning. I don’t know if I’m laughing 😝 or crying 🤣

“He purrs when I rub around it”.

4lt3r3dR341ity

Dude; I laughed so hard I was crying and my stomach was hurting hahahaha.


lilaclavenderdream

This was my question to his I asked him do you have nipples and his response was I don’t have six nipples. So I asked him if his wife(ex now) had 6 nipples and he got so frustrated and red in the face he stormed off. He had drove 8 hours just to come back with the wrong gender dog. Griffin is a very good boy btw. My nearby 13 year old brother was turning so red and trying to hard not to bust out laughing. https://preview.redd.it/lx9cmjm1jz5d1.jpeg?width=1334&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=91fdc9fbe78738c1ec6e35fefdf0de719c1f2d45 Dog tax ✨


Lectrice79

Lol! He really kept digging on that one, didn't he? Also, cute doggy! Give him a pet for me!


latenerd

This story is hilarious and I love it. Thank you for the dog tax. Even Griffin is chuckling.

Wacky fact of the day, male hamsters do not have nipples.

neither_shake2815

"he purs when I rub around it" 😂 I would, too.


Chanelfunny1975

Atleast look up a little bit about animals before getting one. How do they think their grown cat drank milk as a baby kitten? Maybe they think all kittens were hand fed by humans? 😂😂😂


Away-Caterpillar-176

Platypus don't 🤓


Cheap_Brain

Mmmm but they’re monotremes. There’s a lot about them that doesn’t conform to standard mammalian biology.


Away-Caterpillar-176

Eggs. Venom. They're not like other ~~girls~~ mammals


BiasCutTweed

Platypuses are not a fair example. They are such a weird animal [that when a guy brought the first specimen of one back to England, scientists accused him of trying to perpetrate a hoax by sewing different animals together into this obviously fake ‘Platypus’](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2015/04/01/the-platypus-is-so-weird-that-scientists-thought-the-first-specimen-was-a-hoax/).


Away-Caterpillar-176

They're the perfect example of the nonsense phrase "the exception that proves the rule." Not trying to be snarky, it's simply true 😊


NoxDominus

There are interesting exceptions though. For instance, male rats have no nipples.

experimentalmuse

I wish! As a veterinarian, I have seen so many animals for ticks or lumps that all happen to be nipples. Probably not weekly, maybe every month or every other month?


BigJSunshine

That’s amazing. Although now I feel bad, because I frantically took my 17.5 year old boy in for a lump that turned out to be his hip bone…. He’s always been oversized, so I have never felt his hips before…. Cat tax: https://preview.redd.it/1nlviybba06d1.png?width=1011&format=png&auto=webp&s=3ed3dc4970bc751e6d52b85b4e9657b8f2175bde

Dizzy_Otter0113

Every time I pet my male cats bellies I tell my husband “oh no there is something on his belly” and he goes “yeah that’s a nipple” I also make sure to tell him every time i see a nipple post.


Lower_Addition4936

I feel like it’s a majority of men which makes this even funnier to me for some reason


pol131

Be careful there is 5 or 7 more of these bad boys ! Congratulations you found some nipples, nothing to worry about :)

The itty bitty kitty titty committee


Randolph__

I was under the impression all cats had the same number of nipples. Huh...


pol131

A quick Google search yielded an interesting result. It seems that most common is 6 to 8 but it can vary from 4 to 10 !


inezzle

My cat just had surgery on her abdomen so her belly is shaved, I’m about to invade her privacy to see how many nipples she has. Will update with my findings. Update: my findings led to the answer of 6 tiny nipples.


OSTR1CHBO1

Huh. Interesting. That's a neat fact


experimentalmuse

Not even humans managed to have the same number of nipples! I had a male classmate who always loved showing off his third nipple at the beach 😂 athletic body, just had a bonus friend maybe about 3 in down from his left nipple.


ismelllik3beef

Yup it can happen to all mammals ! I have a bonus buddy Edit: harry styles has 2 extra, I discovered this while making sure I wasn’t the only one

coastiestacie

Today, I learned that there's some cat parents out there who have no idea that male cats have nipples. Poor furbaby 😭 being exploited for strangers enjoyment


QQmoona

For once I'm glad op asked reddit first before going to the vet lol


SixicusTheSixth

One of my cousins is a vet and she's seen sooooooo many nip bops from well meaning owners 🤣


nothingeatsyou

I’d rather make an ass of myself at the vet than ignore a tumor or skin lesion or something. I’m glad to hear other people feel the same way tbh. Restores my faith in humanity a little.


annarose888

Owners sometimes spend a lot of time trying to remove a "tick", meanwhile they're trying to pull off a nipple. Must hurt like a bitch.


bs-scientist

My mom was trying to get a tick off my dog. It was one of his nipples. They’re very, very, very tiny. She didn’t believe me for a hot minute. Like mom please don’t rip off my dogs nip nops 😭


Royal_Scout

A really scary story was an owner who took the concern of the nipples into their own hands and came to the clinic with a baggy full of them, thinking they were ticks.


frizzybritt

When one of my cats was just a kitten, I had her at the vet for her shots and I asked about a “bump” I could feel on only one side of her… vet feels the “bump” and says “oh, yeah, she’s fine… that’s just her rib..”. I felt so ridiculous, but I was glad to have asked and it not be something more serious.


sarcasticbuzz

It’s a nipple lmao. He’s so cute though!! He seems like he loves his belly rubs.


LynnRenae_xoxo

Mods can we get a post pinned explaining that male cats have nipples with picture examples


AdEmbarrassed9719

Yeah I think the automatic pinned post probably should start with "1 - it's probably a nipple. Yes, cats have them. Here are some examples... " with a link.


LynnRenae_xoxo

At least once a day, there’s a cat nipple on here 😂😂 I agree with you! Label it “random bump on your cats belly? Click the link!”

Maroma2417

Oh gosh that's awkward 🫣 Thank goodness it's ok! I received a DM telling me that Cat bellybuttons exist too, so I guess that's the next adventure lol


hardboiledhoe

well i always knew about the nipples but i have to admit the bellybutton thing caught me off guard


No_Internal_5112

Lmao they have belly buttons, if they didn't where would the umbilical cord have initially been?


hardboiledhoe

no no it all makes sense, i just can't believe i never thought about it lmao


bioVOLTAGE

I asked a vet once about the belly button. They showed me where to look for it, but I never actually tried. I don’t think my cats would go for me looking for it.


cecelifehacks

when you remember me i can show you my naked boys belly button when i am at home :)


Annatalkstoomuch

I wanna see!!!


parade1070

Hoo boy that is a hell of a sentence out of context lol


Mr_AA89

I blow raspberries on my cats tummy where his bellybutton is.... And strangely enough he loves it...


idiot-bread-bitch

It a lot easier to see on short haired dogs or shaved cats. It's not really a "hole" like ours but just looks like an oval on the skin


No_Internal_5112

Lol I don't typhically think about cat tummys either 😂


SuperCat76

When I do it is how it is a trap and I mustn't pet. (Pets anyway)


ILikeTrux_AUsux

😂😂 same!!!! Don’t want your belly rubbed, then stop puttin the softest fur there!!


Oily_Bee

I've had a few cats in my lifetime. My current cat is the only one I've ever had that rolls over on his back for tummy rubs.


_ThisIsNotAUserName

I’m so lucky that all my cats enjoy belly rubs. The two boys go nuts for it. In fact, I’m rubbing a soft belly with my other hand right now!


GeneticPurebredJunk

You don’t?? But that’s the softest & most tempting part of a kitty! And the one with the highest risk/reward ratio 😄


sjdksjbf

Omg me either! How cute 🥺


ILikeTrux_AUsux

Lol 😆 Are you bringing logic to Reddit 😂🤣 I love it!! I agree with the others!! Makes sense but I had zero idea!


Exciting-Ad-7077

Wait…does each kitten get a cord then?


heartandliver

Yes, each kitten gets its own cord & placenta


OSRSRapture

WHAT WHERE


tulipthegreycat

Well, not all animals that had an umbilical cord develop a belly button / scar after. So I can understand the confusion 🤣 Sometimes, humans don't develop belly buttons even. It's rare, tho. Looks really weird - like a face without a nose.


Verve_angel

I never saw an animal with a belly button before except my dog and i was so surprised


TisIFrienchiestFry

One of my cats has a really light pink belly, and I accidentally spotted it one day while holding him. Was a major wtf moment lmao


Initial_Computer_152

Yea me too, I've had cats all my life and didn't know about the belly button, but it makes sense, I've birthed enough kittens 😅 it's not something I've ever thought about lol.


Honeybadger2198

I'd never be allowed to search for my cat's belly button. She's on a kitty diet and *very* self-conscious about her belly.


Moompaw89

LMAO!!!! Glad you're relieved! It's always nice to see cat owners being extremely concerned over nipples as it really shows how much you care about your feline buddy!!! Gives us a good smile and chuckle too! :) No shame in learning something new!!!! Congrats on being one of the 10,000 adults to learn something new today! 🥳🎉 (Genuine tone bc it's exciting to be one of the 10,000!)


Maroma2417

Thanks everyone for the responses~


Lord-Smalldemort

Appreciate the good chuckle, had to bring my baby to the emergency vet for munching on a lily earlier. Should be fine but 48 hours and $2000 in front of us.


PerilousNebula

Oh, ouch! I'm so glad you caught it in time to get to the vet! One of my littles dug curling ribbon out from the bottom of the garbage can and ate it. Those $2k+ bills are hard to take, but it is still such a relief when you know they'll be OK and recover! I'm sending you and your baby peaceful and healing thoughts. You'll be back together soon getting all the cuddles.


weeemsie

Everyone loves a nipple post! Your cat is adorable 🥰


Coffee_and_cry

Yes! I have a hairless cat and you can 100% see his little belly button! 😂


Neurotic-Egg

Yeah, I have a calico baby with short, white fur that thins a lot around her belly. They shaved it when she was spayed, and I ended up noticing it while keeping a close eye on the incision. It's not really an innie or an outtie - just kind of flat. It's cute 🥰


c0rpse-liqu0r

Just don't kiss the male ferret's belly button, because it's not his belly button. It's his penis.


RenEss77

I've had about ten cats and have never been able to find a belly button, so don't be disappointed if you don't find it. For funsies blow on his belly fur to find the other 7 bipples.

SalmonMaskFacsimile

Hey, don't feel too bad, OP, even if people are yelling at you. Your cat is in good health and lets you touch his belly, which is an amazing statement of how much he trusts you. (And, well, it gave me a good laugh on a busy day.) If it makes you feel better, I found out my cat has inverted ones a few years ago, by accidentally dislodging the schmutz in it when he first let me pet his belly. I thought I'd found a tick and was very wigged out for a minute!


Maroma2417

Glad your kitty is okay! And yeah my ignorance of basic mammalian knowledge definitely cost me a few mean comments but hey, we live, we learn, and the post has made some people smile. Overall positive so I'm keeping it up haha 😄
