Silverbacks are adult male gorillas, not adolescents. I'm beginning to doubt that anon has thought this through at all!

No because this is classical operant conditioning not Pavlovian.

Edit: Corrected for my stupid response while exhausted.

I think its like every pavlovian is a classical but not every classical is a pavlovian.

This is what happens when I'm posting while exhausted. It's not Pavlovian/classical, it's operant conditioning.

Because a raging silverback gorilla that can bench two tons just isn't enough - it needs to be a swole silverback for it to count.

Some guys really have self-confidence issues.

No wonder even his made up girlfriend dumped him.

There's no such thing as an adolescent silverback. A silverback is a fully mature dominant male. They don't gain the silver coloration until they are mature, so the entire premise is a contradiction in terms.

Redditor Lemmy user admitting they might be wrong challenge (impossible)

Nah I'll admit it

I looked it up at first and the phrasings I kept seeing was "species of mountain gorilla" so I assumed that meant it was a specific species. Woke up to the downvotes so I looked a little deeper and found out I was wrong.

Personally I blame Google for not being able to answer concise questions like "is a silverback gorilla a species" but it is what it is ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

If you're going for bulk and rage, you're forgetting the copious amount of steroids...

So much effort... Just deliver to her adult male chimp after 3 weeks in solitary confinement.

Or you could buy gorilla feed from the zoo and mpmd's gorilla mind and gorilla mode. Then after your transformation is complete you take drugs and kill your ex girlfriend.

How? It could be a woman with a woman as an ex, nothing in the post suggests gender.

Methinks projection from you, friend
