Platypus

[Basel Gill]

Cows are delicious.

[Lenlo]

Cats. I like cats. As pets, not food. I also like snakes and geckos.

Seconding Lenlo again.

[Aiel Heart]

Cat people.

[Aiel Heart]

They're ok

Heh. Look at me. I was in 100,000 mode where each sentence gets its own post. Back to that

Too many cats where I live. Everyone seems to have a few and the dirty gits use my back garden as their litter tray. Which means I have to go out with a shovel and clear the lawns and stuff before my boys can go out and play.

 

I seriously can't wait till we move house.

Heart I prefer the cows. So tasty.

 

love this

for some reason I thought this appropriate, poem in the spoiler:

 

 

 

The Early Purges

 

 

 

I was six when I first saw kittens drown.

Dan Taggart pitched them, 'the scraggy wee shits',

Into a bucket; a frail metal sound,

 

Soft paws scraping like mad. But their tiny din

Was soon soused. They were slung on the snout

Of the pump and the water pumped in.

 

'Sure, isn't it better for them now?' Dan said.

Like wet gloves they bobbed and shone till he sluiced

Them out on the dunghill, glossy and dead.

 

Suddenly frightened, for days I sadly hung

Round the yard, watching the three sogged remains

Turn mealy and crisp as old summer dung

 

Until I forgot them. But the fear came back

When Dan trapped big rats, snared rabbits, shot crows

Or, with a sickening tug, pulled old hens' necks.

 

Still, living displaces false sentiments

And now, when shrill pups are prodded to drown

I just shrug, 'Bloody pups'. It makes sense:

 

'Prevention of cruelty' talk cuts ice in town

Where they consider death unnatural

But on well-run farms pests have to be kept down.

I've seen a platypus. They are cool. As are wombats and koalas and kangaroos and wallabys. I'm not so keen on the cassawarys.

 

Why does Australia have all the cool animals?

 

Cause Australia is the cooliest??

 

 

As for Dingos they are the bomb....as long as they dont eat your baby!

 

there is no such thing as a cute cuddly koala they are sullen mean and vicious and dont really exist they are actuaslly drop bears nods

 

 

oh and turin the plural is like sheep it is platypus

When I started you back on the loop I told you so :P

[dicetosser1]

you think THAT started a scare?? shoulda seen it when a cane toad somehow ended up in western NSW!!!

[Talmanes]

Australia is indeed awesome, and yeah I took a picture with a koala, and it clawed me and looked all pissed off lol.

 

Now I demand this thread be spammed with pictures of platypuses! (It's actually correct to use platypus or platypuses for plural, did an essay on them once back in the day)

Drop bear killing tourist within the boundaries I the ACT should have caused a huge ruckus though....

Tourism Australia probably had to cover it up a little though....

I live here and I'd forgotten how weird, yet freakishly cute those things were....
