We're never gonna hear the end of this box turtle thing, are we

[TrogL]

Another meme for the collective conscience.

1. Dude, I like box turtles

I dunno what you're talking about at all. And if I want to marry my box turtle just to ruin your marriage, you can't do anything to stop me!

[southpaw]

2. Looks that way...

But I have no problem with keeping it in the public eye... don't let the stupidity of the right be forgotten too quickly...

We must fight the "memory hole" of which Reagan spoke while in office (and became intimately familiar with in his final years...)

3. It's all John Cornyn's fault

:shrug:

Blame him!

4. As long as my box turtle and I are consenting adults, why should anyone

care what we do in the privacy of our bedroom? Now if we are performing sex acts on each other in public and frightening United States Senators, I can understand your concern.

5. are tortoises still okay?

I mean, I'm still considered a man if I get down with a tortoise right?

6. Only if you take the dominant position

If you let a tortoise penetrate you, then according to the ancient Romans you will lose your manhood.

7. How did this box turtle thing start anyway???

8. Read the Conservative Idiots list #4

9. I don't get it...

What is wrong with marrying a box turtle?

[KamaAina]

10. Do box turtles get along with yaks?

If not, it may be hard for many of us Lounge Lizards to add a box turtle to the family... :-)

nueva toaster, dude!

12. We have a box turtle.

Her name is Myrtle, and she is really cool. My husband found her as she was crossing a street. She was all beat up, but has since recovered. We giver her cantaloupe, carrots, cherries and snails.

She sometimes will walk up to my husband and raise her head like she wants to communicate with him. Cool turtle. At first our cats thought she was something to play with, but they got bored with her quickly, Now they just ignore her.

:hippie:

13. Box turtles came up in a non-political conversation yesterday!

A few of us were talking about pets (my bird, someone else's cat, etc.) and someone mentioned that she likes box turtles. It was all I could do to not burst out laughing! This happened during coffee hour after church, and I sensed that it wasn't the right time and place to explain the box turtle remark.

14. Not for a long time.
