I remember hearing on the news that they'd bred a chicken that didn't have any feathers, to save plucking time. I thought I'd woken up in Robocop.

This story number 5: they should heed the example of Story 1 and not make any sweeping statements until they're sure they really have kicked the bucket.

I think I contributed to pushing the dead duck story up the ratings. Ducks coming back from the dead - what's not to love??

I haven't read any of those stories.

I will not, I will not, I will not read any of those stories.

Not in a boat, not with a goat, not in a house, not with a mouse.

I will not read any of those stories.

Ice Nine, that's perfectly fair.

Besides, they're not all that funny.

The Israel one is positively dull

The fact that the world's oldest person only became the world's only person last week and then to die as soon as she got the title... at least she made it down the aisle as the bride, she wasn't always the bridesmaid.
