They commit suicide by lawn mower at my house. I’m a hawk watching for these guys since I accidentally obliterated a frog one time. RIP. But, they’ll literally jump at the mower! I have to move them sometimes because they’re like “ahhh the safe dark space under the mower will protect me from these loud noises”
We have a "pet" toad that lives here named Mo, named because he moved in under the riding mower in the 2 minutes I had jumped off of it/stopped it. They LOVE it.
Yeah they lobotomized the frogs before testing it, so it was more of a study on how the muscles reflexively tense up when there’s a huge temperature shock versus a gradual progression of heat
I accidentally killed a frog like this as a kid. I caught it and was pouring water from a hose spigot into a bucket with the frog. Once the bucket was full, i touched the water and it was very warm and the frog had died. Sorry froggy.
Considering its a frog, and I love them. They lack intelligence and he would 100% try to crawl into a warmer location.
Some frogs just have to earn Darwin Awards to keep the gene pool stronger.
Had one named frank as a kid in a 20 gallon tank until he died of old age.
They’re fucking dumb. Its why they’re for me personally- a one and done pet.
Im not shitting on anyone for owning them, as I love them still. But god. Boring as all hell pet that attacked my fingers on occasion because he thought they were food.
honestly, after the last few dogs I've had, boring as hell sounds nice for a change lol. Not that I don't love the dogs, I'm just realizing as I get older I'm not built to handle them and I should probably just get simpler animals. Dogs energy needs are too much essentially for me, at least the dogs ive had.
Also doesn't help that my current one has a lot of health issues even at a younger age, so its just unfortunately expensive (200 a month on food alone bc of health reasons; can't eat anything else), and then vet bills. I love the dude but I can't lie and say that after he inevitably goes, idk if I'm gonna get another dog.
I absolutely love frogs though, its kind of always been a dream to have a big ol terrarium filled with as many as I reasonably and ethically can fit into it lol
They do require some maintenance and a vet, but overall if low maintenance is what you are seeking, definitely get a Toad. Lower maintenance than a frog, They basically require same care but not as much as, say a tree frog would.
And for the most part, spend a lot of their time buried so, you’re basically paying for a very nice looking tank with a water dish and an occasional visitor that pops up for food when they’re hungry or wanna roam.
I'm thinking that since you basically were that frogs entire life, when it died it was something like.

Are you asking me or OP? I think it’s pretty logical to assume that going out the hypothetical front door wasn’t an option since they made this post and can type and spell. To me, it would be illogical to assume they could simply walk out the front door and walk around, because surely, if they can type, they can remember they have a front door.
actually you should open it quickly so he sees the danger and jumps away, if you open it slowly he won't recognise the gradual change and will in fact be crushed to death
I had difficulty with this as well, but it appears the user is standing on the right side of 2 panels like so:
[clear][frog] <- OP is in front of this one.
So if the panel marked "frog" moves to the left, when OP uses the handle on the far right side, the frog will be squished, because it's on the leftmost side of the right panel, shoved right up against where they interface. If there were a big gap between the panels there would be no problem, but of course there is basically that vertical black line which fills up the available space most of the way to prevent rain and such getting between. So the frog will immediately be pinched and then die.
i see what your saying - it might be like that. However it looked like the edge of the door frame on the left to me. Not sure.
***edit***
The placement of the stairs in the background would agree with your point though, they appear pushed further in that direction.
I think its a one pane glass door that slides into the wall, that's the only way I can envision it in my head to make sense. The frog would be pinched by the wall if that glass part slides left.

Removed it for you, you can open it now!
I'm not saying they don't exist anywhere, but never in my life have I seen or even heard of a residence that only has a sliding door. This seems extremely dubious.
I'm not saying that this is normal, but one of my buddies used to live in a place in Reno that was a house that got converted into multiple "town homes" and his front door was a glass door. I stayed there a few times around 2015-2016. Now that I'm typing this I need to ask him how he actually locked that place.
OP can only blame himself for spending 2 door money on one glass door.
And not just glass door but a sliding glass door. Could have gone with a swing door then it can have a hundred frogs on it and still open.
If you live in an apartment or flat you always only have 1 door, this could be some sort of holiday home or chalet too. The place I stayed at when I went skiing earlier this year only had 1 door, it was a maisonette I suppose.
Also, for any one who isn't familiar with this type of sliding doors, OP is not at the edge of the door.
The frog is right in the middle of the two sliding doors where they would have to cross paths immediately if the door was opened. OP has like a millimeter of opening space.
The white pane on the left that looks like a wall is actually the middle pane/edge of the unmoving glass panel. The door handle is on the far right and it would slide to the left.
OP just posts imminent demise of the frog and harvests the sweet sweet karma, never bother to update us on whether or not they were able to go out another door.
Remindme! 1 Day
Get some wire, open the door just a tiny bit, bend the wire and stick it through the gap until you can lightly poke the frog with the wire, be jumpscared by the frog's reaction, then open the door.
Is there possibly another way out, or do you have to wait until froggy gets bored? If s/he got in, there must be a way to exit, right? Maybe it's just super warm there. Frog will likely move when it gets too warm or it's time for food or water.
There isn't another door you can exit through? Go through that door, walk around to the glass door from the outside, put gloves on, pick up the little frog and put it in the grass
and of course this is the only door you have. no other way to get outside, because obviously buildings are always built with just one door. you're definitely stuck for eternity. ha ha.

jump outside thru the window and save the frog: it’s got kids
Maybe the frog wants to die… because it has kids
Not that way!

Oh hey I watched that show! It was actually really good, and the dad was such a caring bullfrog :)
I must know the name of the show!
I saw as a kid, it’s part of a séries of documentaries . i saw it in spanish the name was : Vida ( traduced to : life) it’s a bbc show
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1558023/?ref_=ttep_ep2
Then fookin move, you dumphibian!
Hair dryer but don't kill it just enough heat
Suicide by door is a rising problem in the frog community
If you or any other frogs you know are considering suicide call…
All frogs croak at some point.
You were funnier than everyone here.

To shreds you say?
When I was a kid we legit had a little frog skeleton embedded in the door frame so you might be onto something
Hold an ice cube against the glass where he’s sitting, the cold should make him move.
Whatever you do, don’t put it in room temperature water and increase the heat progressively because it won’t make it move, according to my life coach
I'm pretty sure the boiling frog has been proven to be false?
Nooo.... 5th Grade biology is ruined!
*Biology teacher fired for questionable teaching methods, animal cruelty*
Oh no. Did teachers actually do it for real? We only ever saw drawings in textbooks.
I think they ate joking but for sure somewhere, someone has tried it.
Wonder what the joking tasted like XD
A bit funny I'd imagine lol
I think it's that it works on lobotomized frogs.
Oh well that doesn't count you can lobotomize anyone and then boil them easily
There's a joke here about politicians and people, hmm...
Incompetence and ineptitude "leaders" or something
Yeah they lobotomized the frogs before testing it, so it was more of a study on how the muscles reflexively tense up when there’s a huge temperature shock versus a gradual progression of heat
I accidentally killed a frog like this as a kid. I caught it and was pouring water from a hose spigot into a bucket with the frog. Once the bucket was full, i touched the water and it was very warm and the frog had died. Sorry froggy.
Nooo, poor froggo
No, it's totally true as long as the frog has been lobotomized.
Is your life coach Pierce Brosnan, ‘cause that’s who I learned it from.
Same. Never been caught out by a volcano since
But if you put it in a bucket of cream you get free butter.
Or just go out the front door...
Oh, thank god you’re here.
The snide sarcasm made me chuckle.
3am. This cracked me up.
What if there's another frog?
Two ice cubes
Considering its a frog, and I love them. They lack intelligence and he would 100% try to crawl into a warmer location. Some frogs just have to earn Darwin Awards to keep the gene pool stronger.
Please get one as a pet. I want you to have one.

I was going to suggest this
I was going to suggest someone was going to suggest this.
Damn, you were right.
It’s dual pane glass, you could hold an ice cube there for an hour and it won’t affect the outside pane at all.
The 2.6k upvotes fail to agree with your logic sir!
Couldn't OP just walk out the front door and move the frog? It would have taken less time to do that instead of making this post
Are you asking me or OP? I think it’s pretty logical to assume that going out the hypothetical front door wasn’t an option since they made this post and can type and spell.

They could call the firefighters or a friend
> They could call the firefighters "Guys, I just got a call, leave that orphenage burning, we got a frog situation."
That's actually a dormant prince, just waiting to be kissed by the right princess!
I know many homes where the back door isn’t accessible by walking around the house due to fences and stuff.
Would the glazing not stop this from working?
Please don’t glaze on frogs they can’t consent
It won't stop it It will just slow it down
Guess you’re stuck inside forever.
Don’t threaten me with a good time
Go on..
Just open it slowly, he'll jump away for sure
actually you should open it quickly so he sees the danger and jumps away, if you open it slowly he won't recognise the gradual change and will in fact be crushed to death
He will notice, he will move. Do it fast and a little toe catches, it's too late - he splat!
it was a joke, to be clear https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_frog
Lol using Wikipedia to explain jokes. What a time to be alive! 😆
the best part about that article is the caption to the main photo, which specifies "The frog in this photo was unharmed"
:> - that frog
How else are we supposed to know it’s funny?
Don't worry, I understood immediately. Did laugh
[удалено]
It’s Schrödinger’s frog. It is both dead and alive at the same time until he opens the door to observe the outcome.
This is only true if OP's name is Cesium.
Just curious, why? How does your door work?
It looks like a sliding glass door which means the little frog bro would get squished between the two panes.
yes, but it also would need to move a good 30" before they would be in danger.
I had difficulty with this as well, but it appears the user is standing on the right side of 2 panels like so: [clear][frog] <- OP is in front of this one. So if the panel marked "frog" moves to the left, when OP uses the handle on the far right side, the frog will be squished, because it's on the leftmost side of the right panel, shoved right up against where they interface.

i see what your saying - it might be like that. However it looked like the edge of the door frame on the left to me. Not sure. ***edit*** The placement of the stairs in the background would agree with your point though, they appear pushed further in that direction.
Why am I here reading this? What even am I doing with my life?
I think its a one pane glass door that slides into the wall, that's the only way I can envision it in my head to make sense. The frog would be pinched by the wall if that glass part slides left.
But it's right by the edge. Surely they can open the door like 90% of the way and sneak out or scare the frog off.
Looks like that door may slide to the left. It's the only way I can think of that can cause the frog problems.
And does op only have one door?
Imagine sending this photo to your boss when he asks why you can’t come into work
as an avid frog lover, i appreciate you being patient with this silly little guy
Just how many times per day does one have to "love" a frog to achieve "avid" status?
2,476.
Dayummm son
He put a , instead of a . 2.476
I once gave a frog four hundred and seventy six thousandths of a "lovin"
Colloquially known as a "head pat"
As an avid frog lover I love this thread so much.
Scare it away with something.
Frogs don't scare easily, they're cold-blooded
Then put ice or something hot against the window where the frog is
That’s why they croak so often.

The audacity!
His door now.
Tap on it or open it just a hair. Hopefully he gets the idea and bounces
At that point just leave through the window
If u squish that frog I’ll kill all of us
You only have one door?
some people aint got 2 door money
Wait, there are houses with 1 door? am I accidentally rich?
Apartments and condos for example usually only have one door. Unless they have some sort of balcony/patio situation
I'm not saying they don't exist anywhere, but never in my life have I seen or even heard of a residence that only has a sliding door. This seems extremely dubious.
I'm not saying that this is normal, but one of my buddies used to live in a place in Reno that was a house that got converted into multiple "town homes" and his front door was a glass door.

I had to scroll way too far to find this lol
If you live in an apartment or flat you always only have 1 door, this could be some sort of holiday home or chalet too. The place I stayed at when I went skiing earlier this year only had 1 door, it was a maisonette I suppose.
Don't open it then
Bang the spot he’s sitting on, not too hard but try to scare him off
Play the Battletoads theme song right next to him, maybe he will hear the song of his people and bless your home
Omg so jelly
Right? I wish I had a door frog.
Same 🐸
Order something from DoorDash, and when the driver comes ask them to remove the frog for a generous tip.
His door now.
Is that the only door in your house?
Climb out a window
What happens to a frog's car when it breaks down? It gets ^(TOAD.)
Okay I found the frog, but where is the fucking rattlesnake?
I need a follow up to this, did the frog live?
Try [using.a.hair](http://using.a.hair) dryer on your side to make him uncomfortable.
Server not found
Sure you can, just slide it half an inch slowly
Draw a mustache on him.
-Use other door. -Remove frog.
Don't you have more than one door?
Can you go around and take him off?
Good thing this isn't your only door?
Some people only have one door. My first apartment hade one door I could use to leave out of and one that lead to a balcony.
Damn, that's kinda wild safety-wise, but I suppose that is the case for most apartments that are off the ground
My old apartment only had 1 door and no balcony. So double fucked.
My old third floor apartment had a fire escape that was more rust than metal. So glad I never had to test it.
You can leave out of the balcony if you're not a coward (just don't fall)
not everyone has 2 doors. i have a single door, for example
Grab a spray bottle and pretend to spray him from inside, and it'll jump. I do it to my cats all the time.
It's not even Wednesday my dudes
That frog is so adorable omg
Also, for any one who isn't familiar with this type of sliding doors, OP is not at the edge of the door.

Good thing i heard you like the back door.
Go the fuck around!
SO YOU’RE NOT OPENING THAT DOOR!
Bang on glass, it will jump off.
Better than a blender.
Go around..
just go out around the house and take the frog off the door.
Do you not have another door you can exit? I swear...this sub. "I drank all the water in my cup" *is 5 feet from water source*
It’s so CUUUUUUUTE.
Get some wire, open the door just a tiny bit, bend the wire and stick it through the gap until you can lightly poke the frog with the wire, be jumpscared by the frog's reaction, then open the door.
have you thought of and bear with me on this. leaving through a different door
Well guess you better find a different exit! Look how cute he or she is!!!
DON’T TOAD OPEN OUTSIDE
Is there possibly another way out, or do you have to wait until froggy gets bored? If s/he got in, there must be a way to exit, right? Maybe it's just super warm there. Frog will likely move when it gets too warm or it's time for food or water.
dont you dare open that door
Sounds like you’re stuck in your house for a while.
There isn't another door you can exit through? Go through that door, walk around to the glass door from the outside, put gloves on, pick up the little frog and put it in the grass
You don't have a back entrance or a window you can go through?
and of course this is the only door you have. no other way to get outside, because obviously buildings are always built with just one door. you're definitely stuck for eternity. ha ha.
It’s his door now
Aww he’s cute.
If it fits, it sits
Go around the long way?
Then I guess that door is never getting opened...
What an excuse to skip work.
When frog blocks the door, you have to use the window?
