Zonker: Say, boss... Boss: Harris, when are you going to get a hair net? Zonker: Boss, the customers aren't worried about hair in their food - they're worried about tar balls! Boss: Tar balls? Harris, our seafood is some of the safest in... Hey! Armando! No smoking near the crabs! Man: Sorry, boss! Boss: You want to blow us all up? Think!

The good news is that the chef doesn’t have to add any extra oil to the sauté pan before he throws the seafood in.

Yeah, if you have to smoke do it near the tilapia.

What exactly, is “apatheid”?
habamom over 14 years ago
“apathied” is when you have been completely overcome by apathy.
For example, “Habamom was so apatheid, she could not respond to the question.”

Apatheid is socially integrated, state enforced apathy.

Very neat, SuperGriz.
And who is “horce manure”? Just another spammer with the same, unvarying message. Respond at your own folly (or apatheid).
Ps. H-m has given us a new tag. I’m replacing “horce manure” with “apatheid”–h-m’s very own flag each time s/he posts.

Replace the “dispersants” BP is injecting into the oil with vinegar! Turn the Gulf into the world’s greatest reservoir of salad dressing! Blot it all up with lettuce! Problem solved! With your help, America, McFriendly’s can do it!

Saying what he means in clear unambiguous language is not included in horace’s skill set.
Come to think of it, horace does not have any normal human skills at all except for unrivaled universal annoyance.

So just roll the tar balls around in crushed peanuts and hand them out as sample desserts. The tricky part can be in naming the new product: McBalls? Ronald’s Nuts?

Maybe the explosive crabs could be sold to horace’s friends for use as hand grenades. They could throw them at innocent civilians. Then the civilians could light their claws and throw them back.
Seems win-win for everybody… well, almost.

I’m not apathetic, I’ve just given up hope for the human race.
BIG difference.

What was that Jimmy Fallon song… “If you go swimming in the Gulf, you’ll get balls in your mouth.”
