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.
Yang Yang was so cute and I just wanted to cuddle him. I didn’t expect he would attack,
My favorite part is there were two other panda biting incidents in the last year involving people that wanted to cuddle with them.
It's rare that stupidity is so perfectly rewarded.
In the further adventures of unfortunate newspaper phraseology, click, enlarge the image of the front page of the Boston Globe, and check out the sub-headline under "Clinton is choice for State Dept.": [link]
Since that page will not be there tomorrow, I'll preserve it in white font for posterity: Obama plans to tap rival
I SO want Stewart or Colbert to get their hands on this one.
Years ago, I saw a documentary about the first pandas in America. The image is seared onto my brain of their first American keeper sitting at a picnic table in a short sleeve shirt that did not cover his metal arm and hook. A replacement for the arm one of the pandas had ripped off and eaten. He sighed heavily and said in a world weary voice, "Yeah, they're cute."
Dude. Bummer.
Dayum. I mean, they're herbivores. You (or, at least I) don't think of them being quite that vicious.
I know! It was shocking, but only because we are so attracted to cute. A bear is a bear is a bear. Lot's of teeth and claws and not much smart, ya know?
Even wee little Devi looks all cute and cuddly, yet woe if you ignore her teeth and claws.
I've cleaned and run a million errands. Printed out cat care sheets, found spare key set and washed out all the cats' dishes.
they're herbivores.
Not exactly. They primarily chow down on bamboo but they have been known to eat small animals in the wild.
Well, they are so cute because they are so roly-poly. They seem they can barely sit down on their butt without rolling over. Do you know what happens to cute things in the wild? They get eaten. So the pandas have to be vicious herbivores otherwise everyone else will put them on the dinner menu.
how the hell is it 7:30? I have a baby shower tomorrow and the sweater I am giving is not complete (it will be tonight, I am close), BUT I also have my brother coming over tomorrow and my parents come on Tuesday. The house? a pit. I should at least empty trash and vacuum tonight. I am thinking little to no chance mac wants to help.

True. And they're still classified in the order Carnivora.
