Since both parents are male, will all the offspring have antlers?

We are not amused, said the queen.

Does that mean that they are twice as tasty as regular mice?

They taught us in school to honor our four-fathers, so where are the other two?

Will this lower the soup prices in Korean restaurants?

Don't these scientists watch movies???

Mickey: " What the f*** ?! "

That's just effing goofy!

Micros0ft and App1e are curiously silent on this.

If they could add antlers to rabbits it might be easier to pull one out of my hat.

Wow, around my neighborhood STEM sells. Rich people compete to get their kids into after-school tutoring specializing in STEM education. I imagine that someday these children will also be experiment with the X's and Y's to come up with something interesting. Like another Gordon Lightfoot or, better yet, somebody to revive the Bricklin. The future is so bright they're going to need shades. Ooops, that has already been used. Canada, Oh Canada.

The book detailing this was quickly banned in Florida.
