That's pretty funny. I was considering stabbing one of my kidneys so as to change to disability pension instead of this torturous "job seeker training" course I have to attend in order to get government money, so I understand how the poor bugger feels.

Why did that suddenly bring images of Pedro, from Nepoleon Dynamite?

I posted an acticle here once that was funny. I'm not going to look it up but it was about a guy who killed a peacock. the animal escaped from the zoo, he beat it to death thinking it was a vampire. It was sad cause the animal died but his reason was sort of funny. Thinking peacocks are vampires..wtf.

Peacocks are vampires :P

Peacocks cute?
They are vicous little sods, almost as bad a swans!

[Sabby]

So? A temper doesn't detract from being cute :P

Vampire Peacocks? The one with the biggest plume is the Head Vampire.

Well so far we know that vampires can turn into bats and wolves (as well as mists and pools of blood). Who is to say that they can't also turn into peacocks?

Ok, Brandon posts with brain controlled robots... finally decided to go pro genius, eh?

Its just part of the planning stages. If you're going to rule the world with an army of psychicly controlled robot T-rex's you have to start somewhere.
