Being the biggest fish ain't necessarily the best - especially when the quick, small fish gang up on you.

Living in your own waste is entirely possible.

Though disgusting.
Don't let people shake your home. In fact, don't let three-year-olds anywhere near your home.

The grass may be fake, but it's not always greener on the other side of the glass. Think before you jump.

Non-chlorinated/flouriudated/chemicalized water just plain tastes better.

When you die
A) your corpse gets flushed down the toilet
B) You can be replaced as easily as buying a gallon of milk and no one can tell the difference

Why does everything look abnormally large and distorted until it actually enters my sphere of experience? I'm always so confused.....
Posted by Tarrsk (Member # 332) on :
Large, tumor-like growths around the eyes are a sign of dignity and oozing masculinity.
There's always a bigger fish in the sea... fortunately, you're safe in a bowl 500 miles away.
Rocks come in all shapes and sizes and colors.
Contrary to popular opinion, all drains do not lead to the ocean, at least not without passing through a complex network of grilles, fluorination chambers, and sterilization treatment tanks. And big, whirling, sharp fans.

Looking pathetic only works when the big people walk by the tank. Kids could care less.

Pet store owners don't know everything. You are NOT too big to be eaten by the albino frog.

Hi CT! (Did you hear the story of the Last Gift of Christmas?)
Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :
I dreampt about my goldfish last night. There were a couple of inches of water on my living room floor, and they were swimming around, and every so once in a while, they'd stop by where I was sitting and rear up ion the water to beg for food - and then I'd notice that they had (in addition to fins) four paws that looked a lot like overgrown puppy dog paws.
Where's Bob and his dreambook?
It's raining way to much here in the PacNW - my dreams are getting more and more bizarre.

You can't swim in the same river twice, but you can swim in the same fishbowl forever.

Floating upside down is fun, sure...till someone gets flushed.

Hi, Liz!
I don't think I did hear that story.
Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
CT, To sum up: We always give the kids a pet as the last gift of Christmas. Last year, it was the Albino frogs. (I hate them. They are the color of flesh) Steve researched, and found out that a Betta fish could go in with the regular fish. The frogs are in the fishtank, too. The kids unwrapped the fish, oohed and aahed, and dumped him ceremoniously into the tank. Moments later, shouts of horror from the living room: "THE FROG IS EATING THE FISH!" And indeed he was. There was the poor Betta, flowing tail on one side of the frog's mouth, flailing head on the other. It was sad. Except, I could not stop laughing.

Did you ever replace the Betta, Elizabeth?
I just replaced the one that followed me through college.
Ni!

Posted by Elizabeth (Member # 5218) on :
But you should be, Tante, a frog's flesh should be green.
kwsni, We did not replace the Last Gift of Christmas. We have a Betta in the bathroom, Percy 5, I think. One of the Percys lived four or more years.
My mother-in-law, from Boston:
"Wow, Percy is three? Are you going to have a paaaahty for her?"
My four year-old daughter:
"Gammy, Percy goes to the bathroom in her water."
