The latest export from the land of milk and honey is a grass-chomping mammal that hangs out in rivers and lakes and is apparently hard to sedate.

I didn't even know there was an export market for me.

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too

Is a hippopotamus a hippopotamus or just a really cool opotamous?

Hippopotami. It's directly from the Latin for "water horse". Duh.

/8 years of Latin down the drain

"River horse", rather.

I thought the major exporter was the local community college coeds from the south. Huh, who would of thought?

Hamas immediately denounced this as a Zionist plot to occupy the hippos land and build Jewish settlements there, while "unknown persons" fired rockets and mortar shells into Israel from the Gaza Strip.

Is it not true that death by hippo is one of the leading causes of death in the world?

It's uncanny how often two or more Farkers say or do something nearly identical at nearly the exact same time.

No, that's mosquitos. Mosquitos and H1N1.

which can reach up to 3.5 tonnes, while sleeping.

How much do they weigh when they are awake?

 
lake_huron [TotalFark] 2009-11-03 02:37:49 PM  
Not that you asked, but it's mongooses, not mongeese.

Octopodes or octopuses are the more "correct" (pedantic) plurals. Octopi is now accepted, of course.

/Yes, there is another Farker out there who will care, and probably also correct me.

Atleast it's not rhinos. They don't play games. They farking charge your ass.

Nostrils flaring, I lower my head. My horn, like some phallic symbol of my potent virility, is the last thing you see as skulls collide and mine remains the victor. You are now a bloody red ragdoll suspended in the air on my mighty horn.

FTA: Once the animal is knocked out, it is lifted with a bulldozer and put into a crate.

Hey, Mr Reporter, when you try to look smart and use a specific term, but you use the wrong term, you end up looking really stupid.

A lot o' people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch o' unconnected incidents 'n things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice o' coincidence that lays on top o' everything. Give you an example; show you what I mean: suppose you're thinkin' about a plate o' shrimp. Suddenly someone'll say, like, plate, or shrimp, or plate o' shrimp out of the blue, no explanation. No point in lookin' for one, either. It's all part of a cosmic unconciousness.

What did you hear in California? What brought you to Africa?
