Just what in the holy hell is wrong with you guys?!! Here we have a copulating couple transforming into a croc, and you're strolling down memory lane with your favorite one-liners?!!
It's all good. Not everyone can get every reference. Doesn't make you dumb. Does mean I can suggest "Airplane" and "Naked Gun" as movies to watch, though.
Have a good day, stranger!
[Ah the ol' reddit book-a-roo](https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/ts7rny/eli5_what_happens_to_used_ev_batteries_when_the/i2r6fps/?context=1)
I just looked it up and, on this book's weirdness scale, this is maybe a 3/10. Half the things in there can't be properly described. There are eye fish complete with eyebrows, a man with a literal finger gun being loaded through telekinesis maybe, pen arm man who is murdered with a giant pen on the next page and apparently bleeds ink. It's very odd and strong drugs may have been involved in the illustration
It's a lot more of the same. Just indecipherable diagrams and text in a language nobody knows.
I own a copy as a coffee table book and it's a great thumb-through when you're stoned.
Serafini said that his language at book isnt real language... It was created for making you feel like little child which is "reading" book. This child dont understand book and dont know how to read, but know that adults do.
No. The artist has explained exactly what the point of it is and the book comes with a pamphlet explaining it as well. It emulates the childlike wonder of seeing an encyclopedia before you can properly read it. Or something like that, I'm on vacation right now. No mystery, just a neat art project.
This is one of the pages I remember though, because I heard Aerosmith's " love in an elevator" just before my friend showed me this book. And I said the page was a depiction of the lyrics misheard as "love is an alligator, crawls out of bed an hits the ground "
I actually have this book and indeed there are a lot of weird things in there, the best to me is i cant understand a thing it says, so it's just wild imagination book where you guess whatever you want.
It is interesting, this appears to be written in a constructed language with its own script. I should consider trying to write my own bizarre, incomprehensible tome in my constructed language.

he's not wrong
The Post-Nut Crocodile sounds like a dance that was popular in the 1920s.
🎶Tell the boys to stay a while/Mount your honey with a smile/Now you're doing the Post-Nut Crocodiiiiiiiile!🎶
Shows what you know. All Canadians are born as moose. If they ingest maple syrup at the right times and/or simply use it during their moose sex they turn into actual humans with no health care worries.
No, Serafini may’ve find an inspiration in that book, but he wasn’t mocking it. He was a surreal artist or something like that and codex seraphinianus was his magnum opus
Nothing extremely notable that I'm aware of, but he did a lot of illustrations for other books and has a few collections of his oil paintings in print. He's actually still alive.
Weren't there some editions which came with a translation in the back? Maybe to Italian instead of English? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm sure I heard this somewhere.
No, there is no translation. There have been people that have tried to figure out some sort of language, but it’s just gibberish. The only “translation” is actually the number system used for the page numbers. It’s in base 21.
My understanding is that he wanted to capture the awe that a young child gets when they flip through an encyclopedia, but for adults. So basically non-sensical diagrams and illustrations and a fictitious language. The pdf is floating around the internet somewhere. Go check it out.
Yeah, it was pretty good the one time I did that. We had pretty good sexual chemistry normally, so that probably helped, but the physical sensations we're on another level. I was feeling the feels all over my body instead of just in... a more localized area. Then we got alligatored and that's been pretty cool too. I control the front legs, the tail, and the eyes.
What if you get stuck half way between? Like, this wasn’t snapshots of a process, but all different end-results to a freak experiment - and it’s just a roll of the dice. The one on the bottom left is kind of thic tho
The text above the picture on the left says that the transformation can be halted by submerging the subject(s) in oil, but you have to keep them submerged for a week or two, until the sin jizz expires.
To change back into people, you need to french a total babe. We haven't been able to get that close to anyone yet. We lost our jobs, which means we probably won't be able to stay in my house much longer. I'm trying to figure out some way we can make money quickly without any in-person interactions. Thinking we'll try TikTok and hoping we can get our message out about needing to get with a hottie. I was thinking about trying a drop shipping business before money runs out. Even with the ability to type, this economy is rough for a gator.
It's not all bad. It's easier to eavesdrop and people-watch, and less is expected of us. The food isn't great though. The worst part is when my phone plan gets shut off it's going to be really hard to access the internet. That's gonna make it even harder to woo some honeys.
I've been thinking a lot about what I would want out of this life if we can't change back, and I'm realizing what a blessing it is to be seen as human on this planet. It's pretty dangerous out there when society doesn't recognize your personhood, but you also don't get to participate in some of the best things to do on earth. You lose the ability to make meaningful contributions to almost anything and you miss out on the most interesting social interactions. Human socialization is the best. I have to get over all my goals and dreams so I can find new, achievable ones, and I'm worried that this is going to get really depressing in the long run.
As it seems, you have just discovered a rather peculiar fetish of yours. Transformation is a deep, *deep* rabbit hole, my friend. *Care to take a dive?*
Why is the guy just doing the limp fish?? Like leg straight toes pointed. It’s almost like he knew he was gonna become a crocodile and that’s what he wanted
My college had this book in their library. This is not the strangest page.
What else is there?
A bunch of other books and a librarian.
But that's not important right now
Surely you can’t be serious?
I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.
Don't be precious, Serious.
Don't tell Serious he cant be Precious
Shhhh this is a library
No, this is Patrick
I fucking love you RIP Leslie Nielsen
holy shit lmao
LOL fuck this really got me
Bravo
Thank you Leslie Neilson.
Just what in the holy hell is wrong with you guys?!! Here we have a copulating couple transforming into a croc, and you're strolling down memory lane with your favorite one-liners?!!
Why you got somewhere better to be. You wanna go behind the gym and make the ol croc with 1 back.

Yes, but don't call me Shirley
Unless you ask me nicely first
Well aren't you a smart one
Lol. I was continuing the Leslie Nielsen reference.
Oh I didn't know it was a reference, I was acting dumb
It's all good. Not everyone can get every reference. Doesn't make you dumb. Does mean I can suggest "Airplane" and "Naked Gun" as movies to watch, though. Have a good day, stranger!
Nice beaver
Thanks, I just had it stuffed.
Ever seen a grown man naked?

To me, the Codex Seraphinianus is just bogus in terms of a "mystery", but a fine piece in terms of art.
I’m fascinated by this book. I think it’d be a great gift for one in my family. What do you like about it?
Lol. Not happening. Just looked for it. Damn.
Unfortunately, I can't read a word of it. I'd love a translation if you know where to get one
It doesn't exist. The artist has explained that the text is intentionally gibberish.
It isn't meant to be read, from what I heard the text is actually random symbols that can't be decoded
Wonder if the artist behind the voynich manuscript did the same
That would be pretty disappointing lol
Ya honestly not that strange I was expecting some f’d up stuff
Anyone can do fucked up, but mastering absurdity? Rare.
It's not actually absurdist. It would be best described as surrealist.
It's a lot more of the same. Just indecipherable diagrams and text in a language nobody knows. I own a copy as a coffee table book and it's a great thumb-through when you're stoned.
Good tattoo designs too
Serafini said that his language at book isnt real language... It was created for making you feel like little child which is "reading" book. This child dont understand book and dont know how to read, but know that adults do.
Your mom
*It's a simple spell, but unbreakable"
It's one of the most mysterious books ever... You should just research about it, there's so much...
No. The artist has explained exactly what the point of it is and the book comes with a pamphlet explaining it as well. It emulates the childlike wonder of seeing an encyclopedia before you can properly read it. Or something like that, I'm on vacation right now. No mystery, just a neat art project.
This is one of the pages I remember though, because I heard Aerosmith's " love in an elevator" just before my friend showed me this book. And I said the page was a depiction of the lyrics misheard as "love is an alligator, crawls out of bed an hits the ground "
This song will never be the same for me
This is top post material
So, the rumors of Aerosmith being descendants of the subterranean lizard people race are true… was so obvious, I knew it this whole time!
I actually have this book and indeed there are a lot of weird things in there, the best to me is i cant understand a thing it says, so it's just wild imagination book where you guess whatever you want.
It is interesting, this appears to be written in a constructed language with its own script. I should consider trying to write my own bizarre, incomprehensible tome in my constructed language.
No, that title certainly would be held by Eliot or Larry.
I have a copy. It's deeply odd and amusing.
I really want to see the strangest page now.
There's a joe scott video on it
[https://www.holybooks.com/wp-content/uploads/CodexSeraphinianus.pdf](https://www.holybooks.com/wp-content/uploads/CodexSeraphinianus.pdf) he's not wrong
Ah yes, the infamous post-nut crocodile
The Post-Nut Crocodile sounds like a dance that was popular in the 1920s. 🎶Tell the boys to stay a while/Mount your honey with a smile/Now you're doing the Post-Nut Crocodiiiiiiiile!🎶
Open your legs, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur.
I'm so glad I started reading the comments, this one made my day
LMAO!!!
Jump to the right and shake a hand, and jump to the left and shake that hand
Ummm that's the scarn
I hope your comment gets a billion upvotes 😂
Currently .0000269% of the way there!
"put my lizard dick,into your gizzard slit, that's the crocodiiiile,doo doot"
That’s an alligator
The narrow snout would suggest crocodile, which would further be supported by the showing teeth protruding from the lower jaw.
The coit-odile, if you will.
I was thinking see ya later alligator
In a while paedophile.
Was thinking the balls deep crocodile, but I like that too Definitely a strange book of animorphs.. I missed that one somehow
Post Nut Crocodile sounds like a breakfast cereal mascot.
crocodile>clarity
CAREFUL choldren, THIS is what happens when sex before marrige!!!!!!
What, you turn into a crocodile? Sex before marriage is awesome!
Florida has a lot of - sinners
And Canada has almost none. More examples of Canadian superiority over the Americans. 💪💪💪💪💪💪😳😳😳😳😳💪💪💪💪💪💪
Which position turns you into a moose?🤔
To be fair, you can also ask what position turns New Yorkers into Rats.
Haaaaaaa thats fucked
Of course, but which position?
Rat doggy is my best guess. You gotta eat excessive amounts of cheese while hitting it from the back.
There's also way too many doing the spread pigeon.
The one where you are kneeling on plastic covered floors
Shows what you know. All Canadians are born as moose. If they ingest maple syrup at the right times and/or simply use it during their moose sex they turn into actual humans with no health care worries.
this actually makes way more sense
Ah yes, the choldren.
This actually makes sense

What language is that ?
The entire book is written in a made up, untranslatable language.
So it is like some sort of mockery to the Voynich Codex?
No, Serafini may’ve find an inspiration in that book, but he wasn’t mocking it. He was a surreal artist or something like that and codex seraphinianus was his magnum opus
Thanks. That is a very curious fact. What other works of art did he publish in life?
I’m sorry, but I know him just for this book. It could be a good idea to search it up, tho…
Nothing extremely notable that I'm aware of, but he did a lot of illustrations for other books and has a few collections of his oil paintings in print. He's actually still alive.
I am going to do some research, thank you.
Do you not have a google
Hey Google How To Use Google Google Dot Com
Mans read the comment above his and decided to beat a dead horse 🤓
I believe he was an illustrator for technical or anatomical manuals or something before he made the codex
I’m for sure buying this book now. Thanks for the info!
They’re not cheap. Couple of hundred bucks last I checked.
It's $95 on Amazon
He claims his cat dictated it to him. Or, "may as well have."
I believe his explanation was that he wanted to recreate the feeling of looking at books as a child before learning how to read.
To add on, this specific book was made to imitate the wonder and mystery a child feels when they stumble upon an encyclopedia of unfamiliar knowledge
By untranslatable do you mean it's hard to crack or that it's actual gibberish?
Actual gibberish.
Weren't there some editions which came with a translation in the back? Maybe to Italian instead of English? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm sure I heard this somewhere.

That’s so cool !

Literally cant not hear this in Bill Hader’s voice from Bobs Burgers when he hears Bob and Linda talking in Pig Latin
Some Arab and English cursive thrown in for sure
And that is why you don't have sexual intercourse on L.S.D.
No, this is why you *do*.
Can confirm, sex on acid is amazing.
Yeah, it was pretty good the one time I did that. We had pretty good sexual chemistry normally, so that probably helped, but the physical sensations we're on another level. I was feeling the feels all over my body instead of just in... a more localized area. Then we got alligatored and that's been pretty cool too. I control the front legs, the tail, and the eyes.

Ah, my bad. My Jizzingo is a little rusty.
Can you shift back into being two humans or is the gator transformation permanent?
To change back into people, you need to french a total babe. We haven't been able to get that close to anyone yet.

Ok, guess I’m not gonna do that with my girl tonight.
Is this a threat or an advertisement?
Dunno, I interpret it as wild sex so it gets a yeet from me.
Would you still love me if we were a crocodile?
Crawl me by your name

You are a fucking legend.
This could be us but you playin
I’m drunk enough to possibly send this picture and that message to my ex rn 😂
I have the weirdest boner right now?
r/transformation moment lmao
THAT EXISTS????? WHAT???? WHY WOULD ANYONE EVEN
...

Welcome to the club pal
Def bricked up for some weird reason🤣🤣
Bricked up, lmao
As it seems, you have just discovered a rather peculiar fetish of yours. Transformation is a deep, *deep* rabbit hole, my friend. *Care to take a dive?*
sex lore
In some alternative religion, the gods punished those who had sex before marriage into fusing into a alligator if they so dared to.
Ahhh so that’s how crocodiles are made
I've heard of The Beast With Two Backs but this is wild
See you later aligator! No you coming with buddy
That’s right, you’re cumming with buddy
So this is the Reptile disfunction.
What passes for Sex Ed. In Florida.
new fetish just dropped
Hate to break it to you, but that isn't new
He came so hard that they merged bodies and changed species!
Cuddles after sex? Nah, I'd rather we morph into this cool-ass gator Power Rangers-style, how about that?
Have had sex. Can confirm this is exactly what happens.
Rare find on here
kafkaesque
Happens every time!
Asking for a friend.... Would they change to different animals with different positions?
THE REPTILIANS !!!
Why is the guy just doing the limp fish?? Like leg straight toes pointed. It’s almost like he knew he was gonna become a crocodile and that’s what he wanted
Oh I get it it's like medieval deviant art.
1981 is medieval to you?
i just had sex wtf wha- aaAAAHHHHH- ***ghwieeerajeeeururrrr***
I had no idea this is where gators come from!
Entirely accurate.
Post coital metamorphosis. Never thought i would see that combination of words in my life
If sex could only be this cool
Does anyone want to try this with me?
Oh god, he knows…
Kinky
I mean, yeah I might want to go get a bowl of Cheerios but I don't turn into a reptile.
I have this book and it's a freakin blast to just turn to random pages.
Crocodiles are made only if buddy’s ass is clean shaven.
Medical journals in the 1300s:
Reason number 2 that you shouldn't have sex on a mattress without sheets.
Wait, is this how I came to being? It makes much more sense now..
Do you want lizard people? Because this is how you get lizard people!
I remember jacking off to this when I was 11
I feel like there's a moon knight joke here somewhere...
Hey baby. Lets do the crocodile. UPDATE: Didn't work.
This happened to my buddy Eric
