I've also heard that he can't be...um...persuaded to give a care about much of anything. At all.

That's a big hedgehog...

Does this mean when I hit him, a lot of rings are going to come out?

My appraisal of subby's English is not flattering.

Of course, I know a lot of people don't like to be apprised of such things.

Yeah, I heard Sonic had really let himself go after the Dreamcast bombed.

Why yes! Yes I do like to be apprised of important hedgehog matters.

I fail to believe that there was ever a man called tiggywinkles that was beatified.

"Ooh... what's a concubine?"
"It's a small creature with spikes."
"That's a hedgehog."
"Oh. Then you shall be ship's cook and hedgehog."

Um... (all classy sentences begin with this)

How do they know he lost 38 grams, since when you look at their photo of him on the scale the indicator is all the way over to the right.

Ok, 20somethings, heads up on the best Beatrix Potter story to read to your bitties: The Pie and the Patty Pan.

Everyone assumes it's Peter Rabbit, but that's one dimensional. The Pie and the Patty Pan is hysterical. Kids love it and you'll love reading it to them.

His dad was Spiny Norman. Spiny Norman is often mistakenly referred to as Dinsdale.

Oh, and it's "apprised," not "appraised."

I seriously need to get laid.

Staff at St Tiggywinkles....are getting his heart pumping through running and swimming sessions.

Heh. I bet they just chuck him into a full bathtub and watch him frantically trying to get the f*ck out.
 
2009-12-11 11:44:30 AM
Hell, I'd like to see one get out of an empty bathtub

my buddy had a pet hedgehog in college and that damn thing was a babe MAGNET!!! "Oh, he's so cute" "Feel his soft little belly! It's, like, the softest thing EVARRR!" The guy was a genius. He lured unsuspecting girl into his room to "pet his hedgehog" which was obviously a euphemism.

The only annoying thing is that when it got loose (usually due to a drunk handler) it would crawl up into the lazy-boy and you couldn't just leave him up there for fear of him being crushed in the recliner mechanism but it was hell getting him out of there. We'd just sit around, drink beer and laugh at him while he tried to fish him out...

good times

I had an Iguana in college, that didn't work out too well for me. "What the hell!? That thing is alive!!!"

A little long for bedtime reading.

Of course, when my wife read The Pie and the Patty Pan all the laughing stirred up our daughter.

Since I got a positive reaction posting this the other day in a hedgehog-related thread, and since people may have missed it, here's one of mine and the wife's hog from Halloween:
