Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

What is even happening?

I just got to talk to a guy who's having an 18-pound lobster for his birthday.

It's not going to taste good. Anything over a couple of pounds, count me out. I really like the chicken lobsters--the one pounders. It's the same as it is with berries, and babies. The small ones make the best vittles. ;)

Excerpts from the concurring opinion of Judge Stanley F. Birch, Jr., 11th Circuit, in the final Terry Schiavo ruling. It should be noted that Judge Birch is considered the most Conservative member of that court, was appointed by Bush, Sr., and has issued rulings upholding statutes that ban sex toys and adoptions by gay families.

Despite actions to the contrary by our executive and legislative branches, and Delay's extreme rhetoric - not all Republicans are hypocritical idiots.

My kids always like to say "hi" to the lobsters at the grocery store. I've avoided the subject of their fate. (The lobsters, not the kids).

I am disturbed by the image of Cindy EATING BABIES often enough to have a preference in this matter.

EATING BABIES often enough to have a preference in this matter.

It might just be a matter that the small ones can't crawl away fast enough, thereby making them easier to catch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

She probably doesn't eat the whole baby.

Just the toes.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I always -- and it's possible that some Buffistas have witnessed me doing this -- ALWAYS shake my finger at the lobsters in the grocery store and tell them, "Repent! The end is near!"

According to a Congressional Quarterly Report, the Department of Homeland Security is only concerned with left-wing internal "terrorist" groups and not right-wing groups.

So Buffistas are now a terrorist group?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So Buffistas are now a terrorist group?

Oh great, now we're probably on a list somewhere.

From Gud's link:

It also lists left-wing domestic groups, such as the Animal Liberation Front (ALF), the Buffistas, and the Earth Liberation Front (ELF), as terrorist threats, but it does not mention anti-government groups, white supremacists and other radical right-wing movements, which have staged numerous terrorist attacks that have killed scores of Americans.
