"How do you like these people?"

"Medium Rare"

BunkyBrewman: I did a book report on "Alive" when I was a kid. We had to do a presentation for our 4th grade class.

I remember thinking it was a masterpiece that would garner me an "A" for my book report. A cotton ball snow capped mountain with a model plane broken in pieces on it. Of course, it wouldn't have been complete without the little people figurines strewn about highlighted with gobs of red paint.

/the teacher wasn't as thrilled about my creation as I was

"Alive" seems like an odd choice for a 4th grade reading assignment.

I heartily lol'd.

Agreed. If your teacher assigned that story, then he/she has no right to be upset with whatever creation might spew out of your mind.

Soylent Green?

Lazy bums... Why not put some effort into it, you know what im saying?

Used to be, you picked your own books for book reports.

...just imagine if one of them karks?

The Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571 story is an amazing one. Definitely worth reading.

Headline of the year.

"They were forced to eat Sir Robin's mistrals. And there was much rejoicing."

I did my 4th grade book report on Lolita. You should have seen my presentation...

"Okay, which one of you jerks sent down a book about the Donner Party?"

I see what you did there...LOL

I could eat a stranger to survive, but the especially eerie thing about those guys is that they were all very close/lifelong friends and teammates. If it were a stranger I'd be all, "Ya'll got any Heinz 57 up in this biatch?" But my best friend?

Meh, I guess I'd have to get over it.

"Listen, kill the fattest ones first. Their asses will sustain you for weeks.

Also, it's not really gay sex if you close your eyes and think of a woman. What happens in the hole, stays in the hole."

Lt. Cheese Weasel: 'I'd rather eat Hodges.'

Came for the Monty Python. Leaving satisfied, although somewhat unfulfilled.

/"Well, he's not kosher."
//"That depends on how we kill him, sir."

Nicely done, subby. Lead them in, then the kick at the end. I L'OLed.

You would be on so many medications now if you did that as a kid today.

I second this. And recommend Miracle in the Andes (new window), rather than Alive (book or movie) if you want to know the story. This is a survivor's memoir of the event, published in 2006 and written with the benefit of hindsight, maturity and facts unavailable when Alive was published in '74. One of the most important books I've ever read.

It's funny cuz he ate people.

/it's a cookbook!!!

An engineer told me before he died...

I did a book report on "Dahmer, the Early Years" when I was a kid. We had to do a presentation for our pre-K class.

I remember thinking it was a masterpiece that would garner me an "A" for my book report. A stark white freezer with a door and rusty saw blades nearby. Of course, it wouldn't have been complete without the little people parts strewn about highlighted with gobs of red paint.

/the teacher wasn't as thrilled about my creation as I was, but that was okay. She wasn't crazy about the time she woke up from nap time to find all the plastic knives placed around her body pointing at her.
