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

More Star Wars - this time a horrible video:

Hello, Xenophobia: French Star Wars Disco Dance Party

I initially had some difficulty deciding which to blame for the most lazy piece of choreography you’ve ever seen performed (poorly) by spandexed C-3POs and Darth Vaders in this disco-themed Star Wars video: France, or the atrocious pop culture trends of the late 1970s.

I settled on France.

NO! BAD, FRANCE! BAD!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

So, what, come the apocalypse, all the kosher Jews are screwed?

There's an overriding commandment to keep yourself (and your family) alive and healthy even if it means breaking other commandments (kashrut & the Sabbath usually being the first to go), so during an apocalypse hunting would be okay if it kept your family from starving. (Similar to how Jews operated in concentration camps during the Holocaust - the Nazis were not big on providing kosher meals at Auschwitz.)

An engineer, Hines said he was inspired to create the robot after a friend died in the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks.

Oh, well that makes it much less creepy then. No wait, I mean that makes it much more creepy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

-t, was this in California? I'm asking cause I remember hearing that abalone can only be taken by free diving and I think that it's cool.

Kat, yeah, it was California, up by Fort Ross, and free diving. My dad had gone abalone diving all my life, but I never tried it until we took a scuba class together. you can't so much sight-see with the free diving, obviously, but you also aren't carrying pounds of equipment on your back going in and out of the water. Bobbing around with just the wetsuit and weightbelt in between dives is pretty fun on its own. I practiced and practiced prying abalone off of rocks with the tool but ended up just being an extra license and a bag carrier for the more experienced divers. Still fun, though. And, of course, delicious.

Stormtroopers are comedy gold.
