Snicker indeed - I just realised I have never actually used the SO search facility, always find it via google.

That pun was ribbiting; and, what yer sayin' is, with the Muppet Show MC being Gonzo, Sweddish Chef can now prepare the French Delectable featuring legs, provided PETA doesn't get hoppin' mad.

That is worse than Statler and Waldorf at their worst.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

They told Ms Piggy "He's Gone zo get over it."
Just like that job I started at where all I did was crush aluminum cans all day. It was soda pressing.

The animals were given a six-month stay of execution when they were rescued from the farm at Milton Lilbourne.
But, having been reared for meat, they were then slaughtered and delivered as sausages to the fire station team, which barbecued them.
Well, they did get 6 months more to live

PETA, of course, objected.
They just need to eat more bacon to become reasonable people once more.
We'll call it the "bacon cure".

PETA got a vowel wrong when they named themselves: The "E" should have been an "I".

Don't you know that PETA is short for People Eating Tasty Animals??!!!??

There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

So I guess had they not been rescued, they would've met the same fate...

not really. (just being pedantic)
burned down whole in a fire is different than butchered and BBQd.

I'd go with the latter. Same ultimate outcome for the pigs, with added extension of lifetime. Tasty meal for a number of people (I assume that this would have been more than just the firefighters). Every party involved, plus likely others as well, came out ahead.
Sounds like a win-win to me. Maybe win-win-win.

A thought for you (first came to me during the first Jurassic Park movie): Imagine you're aware you're going to die - and learn that you will be ingested, as well (or both at once, this last having a rather short lead-time).

You left out an important part.
Imagine you have a choice between dying now or dying 6 months from now. Oh, and the impending death is a little more violent and painful.

I think this can be found on iphones too because I have been observing some BYOD iphones on networks reaching out to China servers. I was wondering what the heck could possibly be going on.
"Google pulls 500 apps that used the Igexin SDK
By Richard Chirgwin 23 Aug 2017 at 07:02 SHARE ?
Mobile developers, listen up: when you pick up that easy-to-use advertising API, make sure it's not snoopware.
That's the lesson, the take-out, or (god have mercy on my soul) key learning from work by security outfit Lookout, whose analysis of the Igexin advertising SDK ended with hundreds of apps returning “not found” on Google Play.
The firm found the SDK behaved badly by watching over smartphones and saving call time, calling number, and call state and sending that back to igexin.com...."
Adware API sends smartmobe data home to Chinese company • The Register[^]

Doesn't seem to list the apps that got whacked.
But more importantly, howdy? Wow, it's been so long since I saw you post! All well? Btw, your last.fm profile is a bit stale.
PM me your Whatsapp number if you want, can chat there
