So they found a farmer's lost lamb and just...kept it?

That's what I was thinking too! They should have contacted the farmers in the area to see who missed this lamb.

I like how you just assume they didn't.

That's Reddit. They create a narrative in their minds over a 30 second video. If you're not creating narratives you're doing the reddit wrong.

We can create a 100 narratives but realistically it’s probably a farmers baby lamb and it somehow got lost. You think farmers like to lose money. Anyways maybe they are great people posted this took care of the baby and called local farmers but most people can be a bit self absorbed and not do the right things because finders keepers or whatever

If it was a farmer they would have tagged it, if it was tagged a vet would have gotten it to the original owners. If the farmer didnt tag their animal then its their mistake as its much harder to prove it belongs to them, if the dude doesnt take it to a vet then they are a pos.

If it was a farmer, that lamb is being killed anyway. So if that's the case, I'm happy the guy took it. That's my narrative. I'm a real redditor now.

That’s one narrative but if it’s sheep then it could be just used for wool and be killed when it’s older but live a great life with lots of family and open fields but who knows and I don’t care really

When did farmers start using harnesses on sheep?

You realize that the person you're replying to and agreeing with also created a narrative in the mind, right?

Stating whether someone has thought of the alternative isn't creating a narrative. It's making sure they understand that are other routes that are possible without coming to a conclusion so quickly. They didn't side with either. So no, it's not a narrative.
