Maybe they remove all your skin and replace it with synthetic skin to ensure an even coat.
What? She killed 'em with mathematics. What else could it have been?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Skin grafts currently look weird, in my limited experience, so I'd guess it wouldn't look any weirder than 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.

The polite term for cats that look like Hitler is "Kitler."

Are y'all wondering what wackiness PETA has been up to these days?
Sea Kitten State Park - where humans and sea kittens (read: fish) live in harmony.
That's the idea behind the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals' latest campaign, anyway.
PETA sent a letter to California State Parks Director Ruth Coleman on Wednesday offering to pay to keep Pescadero State Beach open, but only if it is renamed Sea Kitten State Beach.
Pescadero State Beach is among the 219 state parks slated for closure under Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's plan to close a $26.3 billion deficit.
The term "sea kitten" is an effort to evoke the same sympathy for fish that people feel for cats and dogs, according to PETA Manager of Campaigns Lindsay Rajt.

Oh my God. I thought the "sea kitten" thing was people mocking PETA.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
Yeah, except that Sea Kitten gives me more of a Baywatch vibe, and with PETA's record on these issues making Hooters look good?

No, it's PETA mocking itself. As well as common sense.

Also, did you know that in WWII, the Germans trained fish to attack ships with explosives? They were called Sea Kitlers.
OK, that's probably not true.

Heck, I don't actually remember the Challenger
I do. We were running late getting out the door (missed the school bus, so Mother was driving us in), and she was watching it on the TV in the kitchen. They'd watched every shuttle launch, and had a picture of a shuttle on the dining room wall.
My parents were somber about it.
I, being in my Young Radical Stage remember being angry at the public for caring more about the astronauts than about the mortality rate among street workers and the homeless. (To be fair to my young, radical self, I'd been steeped in Streetwise and the activity of the Green River Killer for ages by then, and it colored my views. Eventually, I got over it.)
