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.

That which does not kill you should RUN

My kids always like to say "hi" to the lobsters at the grocery store. I've avoided the subject of their fate.

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?

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"Repent! The end is near!"

I don't remember you doing this in the Ferry Building when we had lunch from a seafood place with a prominently displayed lobster case. You only care about the souls of Cincinnati lobsters, obviously.

Holy shit, you're not kidding. That's disconcerting.

I thought it might be an April fool's joke. But it's not that funny.
