Well, yesterday I had to replace quite a few fish form the tank because the aquarium heater decided to try boiling the other ones. One new, better heater later and a trip to the store, in addition to the replacements I ended up with a pair of fish called "Twig catfish" They are goofy looking things

Edit: this one work better?

But the wierdest thing about them, is that to catch them you don't use a net. you just stick your hand in and pick them up! They don't swim away, they just sit there. it's offically the strangest thing I have ever seen

You forgot that thing I showed you with a rubber glove, a piece of string, and a piece of Michael Jackson shaped velvet?

I thought you meant looked weird, so I thought you were weird when I saw the picture.

Turkeyfish scare me.

The picture of the damned thing reminds me of those South American catfish that'll swim up your urethra and then lock their fins.

Be sure not to pick those up with your ******. It might hurt.

I was hoping this would be a post about Phish, but oh well.

And I truly don't understand why you wig out over some lazy ass fish...

Ah well, I was enjoying having my avatars on, but I guess all good things come to an end.

I worked with a young, pretty and sweet girl for a while. Her boyfriend went out of town to a convention and she volunteered to take care of his cats and fish. A few days later she's crying all day at work. Since this is far from her usual demeanor, I ask her about it. "I cooked all Bob's fish! she says. What am I going to say to him when he gets back?"

Well, he's a really nice guy so when he gets back he tells her it's OK, it happens, I'll get some more fish... A year or so later they were married and they've been happy for a good long while now. They have fish and cats and a bunch of scarry reptiles.

The moral of the story is that a good boyfriend will value you more than a bunch of pet fish.
