I hope this woman googles, finds this post, and reads it.

WHAT A FUCKING MORON!

Woman finds "cross" in potato chips. Yeah, stupid people find stupid stuff in stupid food all the time, but it was this comment that sealed the deal for me:

"I don't know, it's either divine inspiration or some random rogue person that decided to stick it into the bag of chips. I don't know, but I think it's cool," Biezad said.
Idiot. Yeah, potato chips would never come out like that by themselves. Some rogue person...pffffft.

She's clever, too. She named it the Cross Chip. How the fuck did she come up with that? Sly girl.

It barely even looks like a cross. I hope she and her boyfriend who keeps joking he's going to take it out of the box and eat it never procreate.

I see that shit all the time in potatoes, it's a defect caused by the potato growing too quickly. it's called "hollow heart".

That broad is a knuckle head.

Marva Drew typed every number from 1 to 1,000,000, because a teacher told her kid nobody could count from 1 to 1,000,000, and she didn't believe it.
It took her six years, and 2500 pages, but Guinness said no record because nobody watched her do it.

....
Reminds me of our IT manager we had end of the 1990s. We had created a new application and stored some 3.5 million customer records on the server database. He didn't believe it and wanted to see them scroll across the screen - now wait for it - right in front of an international audience of IT specialists who were there to see our application. Duh!

They don't have a Cruelty to Animals charge in the UK?

And then you offer HER the protection? Kind of fucking backwards if you ask me.

The RSPCA will bring charges if they deem it worthwhile.
Isolated incidents wouldn't usually lead to prosecution in that the the cat was recovered alive and pretty much in good health.

Court appearances and fines are generally given to prolonged periods of abuse (starving animals who are flea-ridden, ill, with abcesses, living amogst their own filth with over/ inter-breeding etc)

And I do agree that she should be getting protection if she has received death threats.
I adore cats. If that had been Diz I would be incandescent with rage. But it's not worth the death of a human being.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (CN) - A man who was hurt in a car crash but was misidentified as a cancer patient claims security guards at Prince George's Hospital beat him up when he tried to leave the hospital to avoid chest surgery he didn't need - "to have a potentially cancerous mass removed from his chest." He adds that one guard repeatedly called him "bitch" as he roughed him up.
