I loved hearing him talk (in his Australian accent) about how the D'argo voice is really just the Moviefone Guy voice. That killled me.
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Bwahahahaha! Oh that's hysterical. Seriously, though, I don't know how he does it - not so much the change in accent, but whenever I try to talk for extended periods in a register so lower than mine my throat gets REALLY irritated. I suppose if you do it enough you must develop the muscles (or whatever).
I love his description of himself as a 6'6" tall geek with long blond hair. Although from photos I've seen he has cut the hair since.

I'm getting the pig!
I've never really watched Smallville before and I don't think tonight's early ep was the best place to start. (The one with the girl that drinks kryptonite ? shakes to lose weight.)
She just ate a deer that she hit while driving in the rain. EWWWWWW!

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
When I was interning for the Dept. of Environmental Conservation in New York, we had a whole set of rules about how you had to handle roadkilled deer, and whether you could take it home, or if you couldn't or didn't want to take it home which food banks/soup kitchens could take it... So I guess it's not that uncommon.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In Michigan it was accepted practice, or at least accepted urban legend.

It's a remora, dimwit.
It's always been the joke in Wisconsin that people unskilled with bow or gun use their cars to hunt deer. And well, at least by eating it so quickly she made sure that it wasn't left to suffer a slow death from its injuries. And she appeared to have made use of every edible bit of the deer.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
I grew up in a family that collected deer that had been hit by a car. You needed to wait until the highway patrol came and called the game warden.
But I also grew up in a family that ate squirrel as a matter of course so take that fwiw.

I have eaten bear that was roadkill. Long story involving family friends, their organic farm, and a semi...and my mother lying to us kids about what we were eating.

How does bear taste? I don't think I've ever eaten meat from a carnivorous mammal (well, unless raccoons count).

How does bear taste?
Like steak, but greasier and gamier.
