Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Moving on from centaurs to... tiny piglets!
IT’S Drinky and Perky! A pint-sized piglet called Perky risks turning into a lager snout — as he tries to hog a beer all to himself.
The five-day-old porker, who weighs less than 2lbs and is just 9ins tall, is the tiniest pig ever born at Pennywell Farm in Buckfastleigh, Devon.
Director Nicky Murray, 40, said: “He’s the smallest and cutest we’ve ever had. The staff here can’t get enough of him.”
Cutest. Pig. Evah!

Does the Sun have a regular weird animal feature?
It's a good thing that the tiniest piglet doesn't live anywhere near the Ginormous cat. . .

I don't mind receiving the atheist hate mail, since I know that in a few years, many of these same people will either be Muslim extremists (redundant) or helping the country fall further in its fight against the creep of Islamic imposition on America . . . or both.
Apparently she doesn't quite get that Muslims by definition cannot be atheists? And that I want to punch her in the face for the (redundant)?
Today I have discovered that getting to work early means I get bored that much more quickly.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Wee tiny piglet! I showed the picture to my co-workers, and one said, "Man, that's only a couple strips of bacon!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OMG so angry. I left my house at 8:10. I just got to my office. Some train problem, but the upshot was that I stood on an outdoor platform for 45 minutes with no information before I gave up and walked to a different station with different trains, and took some crazy convoluted route to work. THIS is why I don't like to come in to work! It's not even the work!

I think what she's talking about is that "American Taliban" guy - he was (according to her) raised atheist. So from this one example she infers that many American atheists will become Muslim extremists. Oh, and she blames atheism in Europe for those countries becoming dominated by Muslim extremists. Or something.

The obvious solution to your problem, Jesse, is to move to Brooklyn.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Also, since atheists are by definition evil, the next logical step from believing in no god is to believe in the evil god who hates America. Or something.
