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.

well, in all fairness, most people don't announce their pregnancy until after the first trimester.
Yes but then you just don't respond.
Though...oooh! False tabloid = truth. So she was leaving us, like, a CLUE that she was pregnant.
Or, you know, she was just being crazy again. Yoko Ono.
what's your seasoned opinion on the Porkchop/Bit Bit incest?
I'm assuming you're not speaking of the sockpuppet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sock puppets? Never. Also, I think you're referring to something I know nothing of.
No, I meant this which contains this nugget:
A representative for Spears said: "Britney and Kevin were at the hotel to celebrate [sister] Jamie Lynn's birthday. An emergency meeting was called, but only because Britney was afraid her dog, Bit Bit, was pregnant by [brother] Brian's dog, Porkchop — and that would be incest.
I figure there's an offchance the dogs are related. Offchance.

If I only had a brain...
For the record, Bit Bit is a chihuahua and Porkchop is a bulldog.

So it's only step!incest, then.
Not illegal. Just icky.

Professional dog breeders breed mothers to sons *all the time*. It's called line-breeding.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's not even icky. Just insane.
It's called line-breeding.
How RAH!

It's Britney. Insanity's a given.

brillig
I'm assuming this means Britney will fade away--unless she becomes like Jessica Simpson, who AFAICT is famous merely for being blonde and giggly on TV. And she occasionally sings, I think.
edit: Except Britney's not blonde anymore. At least now I can tell her apart from Jessica.

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