Anybody else imagine the gators talking like the Pearls before Swine crocs? The hoodies sealed the image for me.

Can clothes keep a cold blooded animal warm? Not sure how that works.

Much like the alligators, I've flown from the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton airport. And I can say, with absolute certainty, they were the best dressed creatures in the building.

Six million children die of hunger every year. This guy maintains a separate residence for his alligators. God Bless America.

So, do you get invited to a lot of parties?

So, is keeping alligators in a separate residence a magic spell that induces starvation? I'm unsure of the connection. I just wish so many children hadn't died before we discovered this. Blue skies ahead, though!

Stop trying to drive, Alligator. You don't know how to operate a car and can't even reach the pedals. You are an alligator.

Unicef says that malnutrition is a factor in the deaths of around 5 million children per year. The world produces more than enough food every year to feed the world population, the problem is that poverty and government mismanagement mean that many people are unable to get to it. Starvation is far more common in countries with severe domestic strife, such as Somalia.

In short, this guy keeping Alligators in his second home has nothing to do with world hunger, and you are an idiot.

If this really were a "God Bless America" situation, only 5.99 million children would die of hunger and the other 0.01 would be eaten by this dude's alligators. No reason why they should all go to waste.

Clothes insulate the reptile from cold air that can wick away their heat.

Since it got down to 45F here last night, I had one of my reptiles in a sock last night.

Yes, I know what I just said.

No, not that kind of reptile.

This guy's separate residence needed to be built by someone, with parts sold by someone. At least THOSE peoples' kids got food out of the deal. Or are you pretending that that money evaporated once it was used to build this structure somehow?

/guessing you might miss my point.

I don't really know how the shirt will warm these crocs up since they are cold blooded and don't generate body heat. Perhaps if there was a pocket warmer in the pocket or something.

Picture is for Izod and also because this thread needs boobies.

I'd verbally chastise you for stupidity -- but others are doing such a good job, my condescension would really be overkill.

Maybe we wouldn't have 7 billion people on earth if only science had discovered a safe, effective method of contraception. Oh, wait, they did, but the fans of the Invisible Sky Man have problems with it.
Sincerely, I agree. We need more animals and fewer humans.

What sort of sicko breaks into a home, traumatizes and assaults gators. OMG.

As to the person complaining that spoiling your pets equates with world hunger--get a life. As a pet owner that spoils two cats and a dog, and a garage cat too, I do a lot to stimulate the economy. We even call the bag of dried chicken strips 'dollars'. I do more than just purchase plenty of pet food and the accoutrements that the four-footed entourage needs, I also own a non-profit which provides food seeds for those who need them. So, what I'm saying, and I think I speak for many here, that spoiling your pets, which is actually spoiling yourself, doesn't mean that you're a selfish non-caring person. It just means that pets are loved like family, and all families, when they can, in what way they can, are sympathetic to the needs of those who are bereft. We understand what it is to care for something that care for itself. Pet owners are charitable people--they care for their pets and they care by donating to local and global relief causes.

Your average kid that age would happily join up with the Hitler Youth if he got a shiny knife and the ability to terrorise old folks out of the deal.

maybe we can send the little hoodlum rock-throwers over to the starving side, how about that? thanks for playing, debbie downer.

ps: eugenics is the answer, hop on board. sterilization is a wonderful thing. no unwanted babies starving to death, how's that.

Hmm, I guess I somehow inserted Florida into the equation. It would definitely fit.
