FTL: A SOUTH Korean firm is hoping to clone the dead pitbull of an American woman who credits the late dog with saving her life.


Wow... that would be messed up if the pitbull clone grew up and attacked someone...

/Just saying

No this is got to be a Pet Semetary reference, get with the program.

Think about Churchill the cat. Think about undead Gage underneath the bed slicing at Fred Gwynne's achilles tendon.

It would be so tempting to just pocket the $50,000 and give him a dog that looks the same.

First...registration....fark no.

Second... it is a WOMAN not a man.

Third.... completely missed out on the joke of the dog's name, which is Booger.

I won't say my submission was better (it was), but at least it was the asshat submission this was.

Side note: Even if they cloned it, a patterned dog wouldn't look the same, it would be impossible for it to have the same pattern since color expression in each individual hair follicle isn't tightly controlled like you're thinking it is.

Under the arc of a weather stain boards
Ancient goblins, and warlords,
Come out the ground, not making a sound,
The smell of death is all around,
And the night when the cold wind blows
No one cares, nobody knows.

I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again,
I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again.

Follow victor to the sacred place
This aint a dream, I cant escape
Molars and fangs, the clicking of bones,
Spirits moaning among the tombstones,
And the night, when the moon is bright,
Someone cries, something aint right.

I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again,
I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again.

The moon is full, the air is still,
All of the sudden I feel a chain,
Victor is grinning, flesh rotting away,
Skeletons dance, I curse this day,
And the night when the wolves cry out,
Listen close and you can hear me shout.

I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again,
I dont want to be buried in a pet sematary
I dont want to live my life again, oh, no, oh, no
I dont want to live my life again, oh, no, oh, oh
I dont want to live my life again, oh, no, no, no
I dont want to live my life again, oh, oh

Baby sashimi, that's where it's at. But it's gotta be fresh.

If it doesn't have to look exactly the same, even better.

I don't suppose it's occurred to the woman that it won't be the same dog. It'll serve her right when the dog turns out to have a completely different personality.

Oh God. It's only a matter of time for the parents little snowflake to be cloned thousands of times.

I don't recommend it. You'll end up with a couple of stumps and a soulless homunculi dog. Then again, homunculi ARE pretty cool.

I wonder if she knew she'd eventually try to clone the dog when she first picked it out.

When I read about this earlier: it was $150 000 to clone the dog and the 'he' was a 'she'.

I just hope they never clone this Booger:

2008-02-15 10:54:59 PM
And in case you're wondering what would possess someone to stump $150k for a copy of her pet, Booger's owner Bernann McKunney is rather splendidly described as having been "particularly attached to the dog, after it saved her life when another dog attacked her and bit off her arm". ®

That's right folks, the phrase "particularly attached to the dog, after it saved her life when another dog attacked her and bit off her arm" is copyrighted.

I'd prefer to have my dog's brain transplanted into the body of a young, otherwise healthy dog.

Then he wouldn't shiat in the house again.
 
2008-02-15 10:56:21 PM
Let's just hope they don't start cloning Son of Sam's dog. The consequences could be disastrous.
