It's the third fucking edition (and one of the best-fucking-respected works of lexicography in recent decades). (I heart the little fucker).
Fucking awesome! I did not fucking know that.

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.

Maybe we should be composting them for the hospital's community garden or something. But NO eating and NO keepsakes!
Oh god, I wish I hadn't eaten breakfast already.
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.
Planting is the other option that's popular. I think my sis-in-law planted hers. I, on the other hand, asked to see mine so I could remember its face when I SAW IT IN HELL.
Ahem.
I had issues with my placenta, clearly. Fucking bed rest.
Oh god, I wish I hadn't eaten breakfast already.
Just dying for a nice slice of fried placenta and onions? I bet it tastes like liver. Mainly because it looks like liver.
::hates on Plei::
I don't remember seeing any of mine. I can't say that I mind.
It looked shockingly innocent for such a pain in my ass. All glossy and smooth.
The fucker.
Even my crunchiest home-birthing friend didn't eat her placenta, although she thought about it....

Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
Oh, serious WORD. No, no, no, and in a word, NO. I'm with Aims-- "Thank you and off you go to the bio-hazard wastebin."

If her placenta was crunchy, she has bigger problems than deciding whether she could finish a whole one.
