Yeah, I don't get the Peace Noble Prize this year either.
They had 205 candidates, and a part of me thinks they picked one randomly.
Xander: We just saw the zebras mating! Thank you, very exciting... Willow: It was like the Heimlich, with stripes!
'Him'
Natter 64: Yes, we still need 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.
Mark my words - this will fuck him more than it will help.
Yeah, that's what I'm afraid of....

A crafty alternative for those who don’t necessarily want to eat their baby’s placenta, but want to pay their respects to the life sustaining organ by turning it into a one-of-a-kind teddy bear.

Um... no.
Just no.

Kurzzeit of Germany produces ballistics measurement equipment. The video depicts various combinations of projectiles and targets at up to one million frames per second, revealing unexpected beauty in hitherto unseen phenomena, and is the best damn ten minutes you will waste on the internet all day!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Now look. The placenta is amazing and all that. And I have loads of respect for it. But come on. It ain't perfect. It doesn't stop EVERYTHING harmful from getting to the fetus/baby. It sometimes doesn't even place itself right in the uterus.
Once the placenta decides to evolve and figure out a way to make it so that I can smoke and drink and get high during my pregnancy without possibly fucking up my baby, I'll be more than happy to stuff it, but it an outfit, and put it on my shelf. But until then, it gets a merry "Thank you" and tossed in the biohazard bag at the end of the day.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
The F word gets its own book.
It's the third fucking edition (and one of the best-fucking-respected works of lexicography in recent decades). (I heart the little fucker).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Me, too, tommy. A lot of wingnuts are already concerned over Messiah Obama and this is just going to feed that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In thinking about things other than work, I was wondering if it would be weird to make bread with kalamata AND spicy green olives and maybe sundried tomatoes as well? I am trying to use things up in a delicious way. Maybe throwing in the green can parmesan would tie it all together?

My squick is less over the teddy bear and more over the casual assumption that most right-minded eco-friendly women are going to eat it, rather than letting the hospital staff dispose of it along with all of the other bio-waste associated with giving birth.
I'll admit, throwing the placenta away is probably not the greenest option. Maybe we should be composting them for the hospital's community garden or something. But NO eating and NO keepsakes!
