Comment by Mike — 14 November 2008 @ 10:45 amROFLOL!
Comment by Flambeaux — 14 November 2008 @ 10:53 amToo funny…my shake’s crap!
Comment by Al — 14 November 2008 @ 11:28 ambut Father, but Father! Don’t you think this type of post is alienating for people who might find themselves in the position of being trolls? Is it truly sensitive to the needs of our cosmetically-challenged underbridge-dwellers? Is this sort of humor really appropriate for a priest who should be spending 24 hours in contemplative prayer, fasting on the occasional slice of dry bread and dirty water? How about how cruelly the chickens are portrayed in this cartoon – has anyone thought of them?
Comment by Tim Ferguson — 14 November 2008 @ 11:49 amTim: LOL!
Comment by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf — 14 November 2008 @ 12:49 pmHey Tim, great observation!
Cosmetically-challenged underbridge-dwellers are part of God’s creation too!
Pass the bread and dirty water please..
Comment by Al — 14 November 2008 @ 4:09 pmDoes no one here understand that these “chickens” are not real! Furthermore, chickens do not use the internet.
Comment by trp — 14 November 2008 @ 10:47 pmTRP —- What? You’re saying the chicken deliberately lied about using the internet? Have you ever known chickens to lie in the past?
And if the chickens aren’t real, how can they drink wine?
:-)
Comment by Howard — 15 November 2008 @ 7:52 amDuh…
Comment by William Hunter — 15 November 2008 @ 11:25 amOh my- that’s HILARIOUS!
Comment by Kristen — 15 November 2008 @ 11:32 am“Hey, other chicken, why’d you leave so soon? Father Z. asked me to stay for dinner, said we’re having a nice risotto and asparagus tonight.”
“Hmmm. This red wine is crap, though. I hope Z. has a nice white wine. That goes much better when you’re cooking risotto.”
“What’s that, Father? You’d like me to give you a hand fixing dinner? Sure! Say, this isn’t the way to the kitchen. This is the way to the woodshed. There’s nothing out here but the chopping block and… the… hatchet?”
