Nobody ever expects that their first pet, a silly discounted bearded dragon that's missing a toe and has a nub on the end of its tail, would end up becoming your entire personality. Reptile people (like the kinds of people with multiple tank setups in their house and Dubia roaches in the fridge, not to be confused with 'lizard people'), all became obsessed with their first Petsmart lizard. Bearded dragons in particular have an infectiously adorable face, like many other kinds of lizzy's, that make them irresistible. We can hold them, we can cuddle them, and we can poke their porky tummies to our hearts delight. Your bearded dragon holds a special place in your heart because he's what made you realize that reptiles aren't just slithering, pokey critters that eat bugs and bask in their heat lamp– no no no, lizards are actually scaly doggos that are pocket-sized for your convenience. Adorably, every bearded dragon steals the heart of their owner when they open their mouths under their light, when they dig a hole, and even when they desecrate their water dish with excrement.
So if you're a reptile-lover whose life was taken over with cold-blooded cuteness, these memes are for you. Scroll onward to check out this bearded dragon meme collection that'll warm your heart to 100 degrees. Hornworms beware!
