Several years ago, a friend and I ordered 4 M-1 carbines from Southern
Ohio Gun Distributors (one for me, two for him, and one for a friend of his.)
They were delivered to his house.  He doesn't have a FFL.  He accepted them
anyway.
I picked one of the four at random, and wound up with the only M-1 in the
lot that was made by the Underwood Typewriter Company.  (The rest were
made by General Motors, and had M-2 stocks.)

Bizarre, hardly.

In fact, the process of evolution on this planet is so mind-numbingly
boring, that it speaks volumes against the existence of a god.  

And, not only is evolution unspectacular, the whole planet is so
fucking unoriginal that even mankind's darkest fantasies and science
fiction programs simply produce modified humanoids as the end-all-
be-all of evolution.

Boring, boring, boring.

That's why I had to kill them all.

Oh yes you can. At least when you define 'drunk' as a state of altered
conciousness close to (physiological) narcosis. From a toxicological point of
view all aliphatic alcohols are narcotics (on a short term basis; chronic
toxicity is an entirely different matter). Ethanol just 'happens' to be rather
well suited for bio'degradation' - detoxification. It has, however, a lower
LD50 than e.g. Sodium Chloride (cooking salt, as you all will know).

I didn't write this, but should have:

Well you should write that misinformed girl and explain the auxchwitx
function of the "bunny" room - something like room 101 for Winston in
1984, only using a slightly different rodent in the cage.

I understand now the guilt involved in keeping the bunny locked up
where he can't score his alloted meat-shredding and skinning for the
day.  It's denying his like self-determination, y'know?

Seeing as Molly Ringwald lives near here, we could try out a cross between
a Bambi character and one of those lovely '80's performances, and call it
"The Big Thump":

    The cute little furry critter, disguising itself as a megalorph or some
such shit, one day reveals its cute rodent side to his friend Bambi, sinking
his large incisors into the doe's jugular and basking in the warm blood that
spews forth. Unsatiated, only piqued, the midget doberman stalks the local 
highschool, though to its chagrin, classes are out since it's Saturday.  
Fate lends a helping hand to our little bunny, though, since a group of 
crack-smoking vandalistic little shits have been put into detention so they 
can plan greater and more destructive crimes in tandem.  In a scene that 
greatly influences the mating habits of the entire pre-pubescent 80's 
population, little Thumper hops into the room, looks up Molly Ringwald's 
skirt, sees her panties showing, and bites out a large circular section 
between Molly's thighs, instantly converting her to an adult Maxi-pad user 
and causing her principal to give her three additional weeks of detention 
for being noisy during quiet time, until he discovers she's dead.  Pissed 
off that his authority's been undermined by biological processes, the 
principal decides to assign all of the little shits more homework, before the
bunny gratuitously bites out the main holding pillar of the library, with the
entire building collapsing in a heap of obligatory dust and flames.  Thumper,
heroic to the end, escapes through the debris, ripping out organs from the 
bodies of the recently deceased as he goes, and arrives home to find his 
father Himmler Thumper Sr. glowering at the deer carcass soiling his bearskin
rug, and sends Thumper to the bunny room for reeducation.

(This turns into the sequel, Thumper's Day Off)

least 25 feet long, with power leather seats, and every option known to
man in the early 70's.  After the hash it wouldn't start, so while he had
the hood up I looked at the engine id plate: 472 cubic inches.  I didn't
know they made them that big.  All for $200 bucks.  Anyway, he got a jump
start, and as he was backing out he smashed in the side of the car that
gave him the jump.

bizarre things, like some of my ideas on surrealism, can be discussed with

I have been getting articles fowarded to me from a number of groups, and
none discuss surrealism. Please do not suggest the arts groups - they
know NOTHING about art. Believe me, they no NOTHING about art.

 I find that misc.test is fairly surreal, but not quite what I had in
