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

“Not dead yet!”
There's a tour of my book? I have no idea what's going on, but it looks cute.
Allyson, that looks adorable. Do they have contact info? You should email and see what it's about. Maybe offer to send them something autographed. I bet they'd get a kick out of it.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
I keep wondering what this is all about...
The username made me suspect and the pictures confirmed that it's our own libkitty, who mostly posts in Bitches. IIRC, she's been very diligent about pimping your book both to other librarians and to the handful of Buffista spirit babies scattered across AK.

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
OMG! That's awesome!

Compassionately intolerant

We haven't had any mutant pigs in a while, huh? Piglet with monkey's face
Curious locals flocked to the home of owner Feng Changlin after news of the piglet spread in Fengzhang village, Xiping township.
"It's hideous. No one will be willing to buy it, and it scares the family to even look at it!" Feng told Oriental Today.
He says the piglet looks just like a monkey, with two thin lips, a small nose and two big eyes. Its rear legs are also much longer than its forelegs, causing it to jump instead of walk.
Feng's wife said the monkey-faced piglet was one of five newborns of a sow which the family had raised for nine years.
"My God, it was so scary. I didn't known what it was. I was really frightened," she said.
"But our son likes to play with it, and he stopped us from getting rid of it. He even feeds it milk."
Neighbours have suggested the couple keep the piglet to see how it looks as it matures.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think it is sweet that their son saved the pig! But calling it a piglet with a monket face reminds me of sideshows. it looks more like a pig with some deformities than a monkey!

That is one seriously freaky-looking piglet. I have to run off to Google Images and try to bleach it out of my brain with about a billion Colin Firths.
