My lady had one of her mice eat another mouse. They were in the same cage and just after an incident in which some mice escaped (two were ripped apart and eaten by her rats) this one decided to go psycho and ate another one. Now it's sitting there beside the others in another cage, staring at me with its oddly disheveled fur.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.

Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

It's really not that complicated >.>. Pelican = Hungry. Pelican = Badass. Pelican eat pigeon. You toss a shark a ham and he'll probably end up eating it, even if it's not fish. It's clearly has a very elastic neck, capable of swallowing much larger loads than it normally could (I'd assume it expands roughly as much as it's mouth can hold). Any way, I'd hate to be that pigeon.

it's pretty creepy though. imagine... being inside another living creature, getting burned to death by their bodily fluids and then being turned to animal waste. very disconcerting.

Nah, I'll be trying to pander them trumbles off to unsuspecting traders for 75Cr, like a good ELITE commander should, then I'll fly into a nearby sun.

hehe. all the talk about fuzzy wamblers and nests had me thinking of the olden days... :) wonder if ol' Hespy ever does a google search of himself....

I got papi neutered, so maybe I'll keep one female...maybe. Though the males are more difficult to place, I'd have to neuter them too. And any operation requiring anaesthesia is a bitch on small pets.

What always confuses me is the comments on the video that talk about the pelican being a cannibal. Its not cannibalistic to eat something else from the same animal kingdom as you. Sheesh. That's like saying I'm a cannibal for eating beef (it's a mammal, right?). And this kind of confusion seems to be rampant, even among smart, educated people. I've had a lot of people say my parrot was cannibalistic for liking to eat chicken...

How people can fail such a basic definition baffles me.

People are really, really, really, really, really stupid. Or suffering from temporary braincramp. Everyone gets it occasionally (I once invented electricity. I'm such a retard). The people who aren't smart are included in the opening statement...

You realize these are youtube comments, right? There's nowhere worse to go if you want intelligent discourse.

Not quite.

For discourse, the worst parts of the web are the places people go to specifically to avoid things that disagree with them.

BLOODSUCKING FINCHES? Fuck it, I'm never leaving my house.

On a lighter note, it's nice to see that animals are smart enough to see food where they used to see pigeon.

EDIT: Can we train birds in Britain to suck the blood of seagulls? If seagulls are in the places where the other birds are, then they're in the wrong place and deserve what they get.
