Enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner.

Cheese that writhes... I dunno. I thought it was interesting that the EU backed off.

Not only live maggots, but it must also have maggot poop in it.

Hang on, people are eating LIVE maggots. As well as disgusting, isn't that kind of cruel? I don't know how much brain a maggot has, but I guess it has some ability to feel something like pain. I hope the human (the diner, not the dinner) forgets to hold their hand over it and the maggot jumps right up their nose and eats their brain.

What's to stop the live maggots from eating through your stomach, and eating their way to your brain? It would explain the phrase "cheese eating surrender monkeys."

Thanks. Now I am in no danger of overeating today.

Hydrochloric acid?:yelsick:

Plus, maggots only eat dead stuff. They are sometimes put directly on necrotic wounds because they can precisely remove the dead flesh and leave the living flesh far better than a scalpel ever could. Approved by the FDA and everything.

I guess you didn't see the live baby octopus eating vids >.>

Hello Leokins and :welcome:


Are you related to Amykins?

And no, I didn't see those videos. IMHO, food should be dead before you put it in your mouth.

I agree, I try not to put anything in my mouth that's ever been alive. (vegetarian) Thanks for the welcome, been watching the daily images for a couple years, thought I should finally join. :P
Can't say I've met Amykins, is she interesting?

My 15 year old son says you sound like some crazy animal rights activist from California. I laughed so hard, maggots would have spit out into someone else's eye if I were eating this crap.

What Kind Of Girl Do You Think We Are? 4:17

Howard:
What's a girl like you
Doin' in a place like this?

Mark:
I left my place after midnight
And I came to this hall
Me and my girlfriend, we came here
Lookin' to ball

Howard:
You came to the right place
This is it
This is the swingin'-est place
In New York City

Chorus:
NO SHIT!

Mark:
How true that is!

Howard:
Oh, how true indeed

Mark:
Yeah, me and my,
Me and my girlfriend, we come here
Every Friday 'n Saturday night looking for that
Hot romance we need
We like to get it on--
Do you like to get it on, too?

Howard:
Well now, what did you have in mind?

Mark:
Well, I'll tell ya
Well I get off bein' juked
With a baby octopus
And spewed upon with creamed corn . . .
An' my girlfriend, she digs it
With a hot Yoo-hoo bottle
While somebody's screamin':
CORKS 'N SAFETIES
PIGS 'N DONKEYS
ALICE COOPER, baby . . .
WAAAAH!

Bob:
Well, it gets me so hot
I could scream

Chorus:
ALICE COOPER, ALICE COOPER! WAAAAH!
ALICE COOPER, ALICE COOPER! WAAAAH!

Howard:
You two chicks sound real far out and groovy
Ever been to a Holiday Inn?
Mna-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-haaa . . .
Magic Fingers in the bed (Picture it!)
Wall-mounted TV screens
Coffee-Host plugged into the bathroom wall
Formica's really keen!

Chorus:
(What kind of girl?)
What kind of girl do you think we are?
(What kind of girl?)
What kind of girl do you think we are?
(I ain't no groupie)
Don't call us groupies
That is going too far
(What kind of girl?)
We wouldn't ball you
Just because you're a star

FZ:
These girls wouldn't let just anybody
Spew on their vital parts
They want a guy from a group
With a big hit single in the charts!

Howard:
Funny you should mention it
Our new single made the charts this week
With a bullet!
With a bullet!
Just let me put a little more
Rancid Budweiser on my beard right now, baby
And you can show me how
A young girl such as you
Might be thrilled and
Overwhelmed by me, ho-ho . . .

Mark:
What hotel did you say you were staying at?

Howard:
Wanna split right away?

Mark:
Not so fast, you silly boy . . .
There's one thing I gotta say

Chorus:
We want a guy from a group who's got a thing in the charts
We want a guy from a group who's got a thing in the charts
We want a guy from a group who's got a thing in the charts
We want a guy from a group who's got a thing in the charts

Such as fruit and vegetables? :rolleyes:

Welcome, Leokins, to the cellar world.

... and then there is "mite cheese".

Actually you don't eat the mites. It is just their "digestive juices" that cause fermentation in the cheese. The mites are brushed off before you eat the cheese.

They have a memorial to the mites too:

I've heard that there is a Japanese pest extermination company which makes offerings at a shrine to console the spirits of all the termites they have had to kill in the course of their business. Dunno about putting up a statue to them though.

Leokins, we recently had the debate/argument about whether plants count as alive. As well as the IotD, there is a whole cellar full of useful and useless crap for you to peruse.
