Fucking sewer rat! That pisses me off too! If you looked at mine funny it would drop leaves, this one is thriving in a drain.🤣

Yooooooo this plant is being so rude.

I aggressively shake mine everyday and demand it gives me its wallet. I think it has a neglect kink.

Haha, reminds me about the times I go over to friends or family and they have a plant that you just can’t keep alive. You look at it, its still in the same soil they bought it in 5 years ago, it’s soggy, no fertilizer and it’s like ….”HOW!!??”

Easy. There’s this one weird trick I use with almost all my houseplants: I get frustrated and put them outside. Where plants are meant to be. (Very little frost here.) Sooooo much easier to care for, ugh! This one has its roots in water like all the best figs in nature do. Those roots can wander far! Plumbers love them because they bring them so much business in sewerage pipe repairs!

That’s a strangler fig. It grows as an epiphyte. So don’t worry, it’s not your skill issue, it’s made to grow in weird places 😂

I initially interpreted IT as in information technology instead of the clown and I thought that everyone in that profession just caught a stray from that comment.

Street rat!!
It does look suspiciously healthy.
I’m pretty sure it’s growing out of pure spite.
This fuckass ficus.
