Oh no, get the Dept of Homeland Security on it, they might fly the dragons into the World Trade Center memorial!!

As long as he didn't steal any beavers.

Were they red, blue, green, or gold dragons?


/apologies to baby farkers that grew up knowing only trodor

Those dragons are kinda cool. They don't DO much... except eat and sleep and walk around... but they're cute. Creepy when they stare and hiss, but cute.
 
2004-02-29 08:10:08 PM
JPFlathead, what's a trodor?
 
2004-02-29 08:11:26 PM
For anyone who hasn't eaten a bearded clam, they taste like chicken.

Wait, there's no such thing. Oh well, it's what the headline made me think of.

Bearded clam

Slang term for the vagina.



teabag bandit

^Connection? teabag bandit, are you making an innapropriate innuendo?!

Someone was too cheap to pay the $60 for a baby bearded. Spiffy lizards and all (I eventually opted, and somewhat regretted, to choose a savannah monitor over bearded dragons), but not thievery-grade spiffy.

If the thief can't afford the herps, how the hell is he going to afford the equipment to keep the little guys alive? Reptile equipment is expensive!

At first, I thought the last word was "children"...

/fair enough...

^Curious Farkette wants to know if you've ever actually eaten one.

This one girl I met who made my bearded dragon feel like it was breathing fire.
 
2004-02-29 08:20:24 PM
Yep, they're tastey!
 
2004-02-29 08:21:34 PM
Lol. I think that's ewwie. Razors aren't just for legs anymore.

I think when people shave and look like pre-pubsecent people it's "ewwie", and a complete turn-off. 'Course, so's having a jungle down there, so it's all about maintaining the growth. Keep the hedges trimmed, y'know?
 
2004-02-29 08:24:42 PM
I hate these dumb articles that get posted because of the headline, and not because it's an actual interesting story.

Feh.
 
2004-02-29 08:24:48 PM
They moved to Oregon to escape crime? Ha ha. They should have read a couple of local newspapers first. I've lived in Portland, and escaped at the first opportunity.

Not as bad as Houston, though. Sigh.
 
2004-02-29 08:26:23 PM
There are many different species of bearded clam; one of my favorites is the Brazilian.

FoxxThePyro,

yep. you don't want to look 13 years old and you don't want to look french.

2004-02-29 08:29:50 PM
I came up with "Tastes like chicken from Jack in the Box", overall.

Honestly though, the pun in the article's title seems... what's a good word for extremely, extremely, extremely feeble?

The police, of course, are rounding up the local fence lizards for questioning?

2004-02-29 08:33:30 PM
hmm?
 
2004-02-29 08:33:38 PM
Those are fun to keep, but Water Dragons, Iguanas and Jackson's Chameleons have better temperments in my opinion. I'd get another lizard but my wife says: "nay".

You crazy, man? Iguanas are nasty, absolutely vile-tepered things. For stupid vegetarian lizards, they're vicious. One of my friends had a 5-foot green iguana that gave him a hairline fracture from a tail-whip. They're just not cool pets.

You want a good-tempered reptile? Go for a corn snake. Too stupid to be mean to you, and don't get big enough to strangle you.
 
2004-02-29 08:37:11 PM
I hereby nominate

beavic

as an official word. Do I hear a second?
 
2004-02-29 08:37:18 PM
Reached for comment, Leisure Suit Larry was quoted as saying: "Are the Lounge Lizards okay?".

Yeah, I'm done now.
 
2004-02-29 08:38:07 PM
SWIFTFOX,

amen. but what shall it mean?
 
2004-02-29 08:39:11 PM
Like a beaver? as an adjective?
 
2004-02-29 08:44:15 PM
Foxx-

You're right. I've had a few disagreeable iguanas, but I've had a couple of absolutley mercenary Bearded Dragons. Given the choice I like Water Dragons the best.

CNFSN a clam or a child?


I think you could kill two birds with one stone on this one.

(...or is it kittens?)
 
2004-02-29 08:48:12 PM
Hah, don't even mention kittens... Did you know that drawing a picture for "Everytime you masturbate, god kills a kitten" can get you in major-ass trouble in school? Funny story actually...

I used to keep green anoles, and they were absolutely wonderful. Trained one (aptly named "Godzilla") to catch flying insects when he was perched on my index finger. This led to the epic battle between him and a moth. Godzilla vs. Mothra. It was awesome. Lizard came out on top with a belly full of insecty goodness.

Water dragons seemed like good lizards to me, but I've never been able to get all of the proper equipment for raising them. Very elegant reptiles, though.

Whatever you do, don't get a monitor lizard of any sort. Sure, it seems cool to be able to own some absolutely badass lizard that can take down pretty big prey. But they've got claws like no other, nasty teeth, and are intelligent reptiles. I've got a savannah, supposedly the friendliest of the monitors, and he's not a good thing. Less than a year old and he draws blood when I take him out on a daily basis.

That was the funniest headline I've read in awhile. It reminded me of the Bob and Tom song..which I've forgotten the name of.

No ass trouble is minor; the "major" is redundant. :)

/yes, I know you correctly hyphenated...it's still funny.
 
2004-02-29 08:58:18 PM
abnormalia, its the Camel Toe Song.

BTW
This has to be the best thread I have read in a long time.
 
2004-02-29 09:02:21 PM
This is Fark. Now that you mentioned that you have a story you have to tell it, can't leave everybody hanging.
 
2004-02-29 09:02:30 PM
major ass trouble would be a different story, though...
 
2004-02-29 09:06:40 PM
Okay, I got bored in my history class a few days ago. I drew a picture, i should scan it, of EVERYTIME YOU MASTURBATE GOD KILLS A KITTEN, with a giant sad kitten and god smiling with a gun in his hand. this big DUMBASS friend of mine asked for the picture, then wrote "To Mr B, from Jenna" and left it on the teachers desk. When the discipline principal guy called me to the office, he asked where i got this idea... this is the good part. the first thing i thought was that it's on the top right banner on fark. the shirt company ad sponsor or whatever, so i said that i saw it on the internet :)

I had to sit in detention for 2 and a half hours though.

lesson: don't draw pictures of god killing kittens in school. or at least, don't lend them to your friends.

Thank you for reminding me why I'm glad to be a decade removed from school.

Lesson: Your friends are not friends, but your enemies are enemies indeed. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. And if you can find your state on a map of the US, you're in the top half of the class.
