I kind of hate that, tommyrot. The fact is, you can be a Christian and believe in evolution, and the fish symbol is, at heart, just a Christian symbol, not a Crazy Christian symbol.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
The addition of killer whales into waters already teeming with the fish-loving seals and sea lions could spell the further decline to a fishery already impacted by water diversions and habitat destruction.
Couldn't the orcas decide that since the fish-loving seals are right there, a change of diet might be in order?

Kansas rocks (don't hear that much) when it comes to Taxes, they have an awsome web based system that takes no time and you get the refund very quickly when you do it that way.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
What is that fish symbol all about?

Apparently the Seattle whales won't do blubber. If it ain't salmon, they ain't having it. They're snooty like that.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well yeah, I see that. It's just that there's been that whole "war" of fish symbols on both sides. But I guess the evolution folks appropriated the fish and started it.

It's this thing in the New Testament where Jesus tells his disciples to go out and convert folks and be "fishers of men."
eat: Oh, and when the Romans were oppressing the Christians, it became sort of an underground symbol. Like 'V'.

Really? There are snottier symbols used by Christians, based on the ichthus? I've only seen the ones that feel anti-Christian to me, even when they are funny.
Allyson, here: [link] Basically, it's an ancient symbol with some probably back-formed relationship to Jesus.

I haven't gotten my W2s yet.
I could've signed up to get them online, however since I couldn't even load the site to sign up, it seemed like a bad idea. My company has the lamest internal web design. Wait, it's worse than lame. It's actively stupid and broken.
So I haven't done my taxes yet.

Yeah. Those were in response to the evolution "fish with legs" one.
