OK! I get it! The D. C. Zoo has a baby panda!
Now, if our damned local news doesn't quit breathlessly reporting it's every move, I am going to personally sneak into the National Zoo, shove eucalyptus leaves down the little fucker's throat until he suffocates, and then laugh hysterically as his furry little black and white body lies cold and lifeless on the floor of the cage!

2. Those who do not love the baby panda are crazy.
The baby panda is a wonderful thing to watch and revel in. The saving of a very endagered species. :hi:

5. I have taken my kids to see him! He's cute as a button!
But he is on the local news EVERY FUCKING NIGHT! At 4,5,6 and 11. Every show! Every station! I'm telling you, I can't take it any more.

4. eucalyptus ?
I thought that is what Koala eat? Panda's eat Bamboo.

Stop threating cute little furry creatures and learn what they eat. Damn it.

2 points for ME.

6. Who said anything about FEEDING him?
If you would prefer that I off the little shit with his favorite food, well ... you're just plain heartless!

7. Give the National Zoo a break...
After decades of a failing breeding program, they have a right to crow about the little bugger.

And, he has to go to China at either his first or second birthday, so he will not be around for long...

8. O rough beast, slouching towards pandahood.

I know it's easy to think about killing the messenger when he gets over reported and you get cuteness poisoning. Hey, everything is temporary. I salute your inner panda. :hi:

9. OK, that made me laugh.
Maybe I'll let him live. But can the local news teams agree to simply report on his next bowel movement during every OTHER newscast?
