Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I believe in my hometown, there was a guy stopped for having a mobile meth lab on his bicycle.

Dude, that was y'all? I heard about that! Or rather, I heard that people do that. I have to admit that I admired it, purely as a next step in the development of the technology. More portable, less centralized, and -- well, I guess if your works blows, you're still just as dead, but at least it doesn't take the whole house with you?

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

C.H.U.D. is still the reason I don't walk over subway grates, however...

You're afraid they'll look up your skirt?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yes.

World's first camel-milk chocolates going global

DUBAI (Reuters) - Dubai's Al Nassma, the world's first brand of chocolate made with camels' milk, is in talks to expand into new Arab markets, Europe, Japan and the United States, its general manager said Tuesday.

...

Founded and owned by Dubai's ruler Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, Al Nassma was formally established in October last year and aims to produce 100 tons of premium camels' milk chocolate a year.

...

With 3,000 camels on its Dubai farm, the company sells chocolates through its farm-attached store as well as in luxury hotels and private airlines. It plans to launch an online shopping facility within a month, Van Almsick said.

I just had a chat reference question: "i am looking for crazy cat stories, specifically about georgia."

I kinda came up empty. Turns out there is no online index for "crazy cat stories."

Is that plane's name Frodo? And they've got Aragorn and Legolas? Or maybe Air New Zealand is in the TherLuvIzSooPur camp.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think I remember stories of Orlando Bloom's mother flying in a plane with her son's face on it. That must be one of the things you can never predict doing.
