One of a bunch of amusing comments on Gawker about Plaxico Buress: [link]
Early: So is it still her room when it's empty? Does the room, the thing, have purpose? Or do we -- what's the word? Simon: I really can't help you. Early: The plan is to take your sister. Get the reward, which is substantial. 'Imbue.' That's the word.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Gay Penguins Steal Straight Couples' Eggs
A pair of gay penguins at Polar Land in Harbin, north east China has taken to stealing the eggs of straight couples and leaving rocks in place to fool their victims. The penguins, named Anderson Cooper and Clay*** by the zoo keepers, have been outed by their fellow penmates and have since been ostracized by the flock. Fearing for the stress levels of the flock, keepers have taken Anderson and Clay out of their enclosure and segrated them alone in a pen of their own.
When asked about the decision to separate the gay penguin couple, one keeper told the Austrian Times newspaper as reported in the Daily Telegraph, "It's not discrimination. We have to fence them separately, otherwise the whole group will be disturbed during hatching time."
...
***The names Anderson Cooper and Clay may not have actually been used by the keepers at the zoo, and may in fact have been invented by me.
I love the thing about the rocks....
Right-wing Christian types tend to deny the existence of gay penguins, figuring that gay penguins are evidence against homosexuality being a choice. But I think they should use this to their advantage: "Vote Democratic, and they'll implement the homosexual agenda! Next thing you know, gay penguins will come into your homes and steal your eggs!"

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
And really, gay penguin egg stealers? We just need to have cuckoos adapt to their environment -- damn shiftless neglectful cuckoos -- and everything will be ok.

So, I came across this recipe challenge thing (via Damn Hell Ass Kings), and this month's theme is hors d'oeuvres, and I think I'm totally going to make Monica's onion tartlets this weekend. Because I totally own the Friends cookbook.
Just FYI.

Gay penguins are pretty common. Usually they are given rocks or extra eggs, so they won't cause a ruckus by stealing them!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Really, everything I've made from it is good. Maybe I'll work my way through the rest this winter.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Is there a recipe for trifle that tastes like feet?

No trifle.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I've had Joe's meatloaf. It is om nom nom.
