I believe Townies are really Muslims.

I've heard "townie" used roughly synonymous with "chav" - in other words, an antisocial youth.

Just deer season. They hang outside as they’re being processed. Buck Poles are pretty common around here during deer season.

“Ben Mowles, 34, said the ‘needless display of multiple mutilated carcasses’ had stopped him taking his 12-year-old daughter to the nearby sweet shop.”

Oh yeah, traumatic. Yeah.

“Mother-of-three Kirsty Trevatt, 34, said: ‘Why can they not be like other butchers and put the meat that is skinned and prepared in the window?”

-Yes, because your little precious should grow up thinking meat comes wrapped in plastic on a styrofoam platter.

“Keith Lewis, 35, a petrol station worker who moved to Sudbury three years ago, told the Daily Mail: ‘Their display looks more like a scene from a horror movie. They even had a line of squirrels across a bar. Who eats squirrel?”

-Hey, don’t knock it ‘till you’ve tried it pal.

Weenies. Bunch of weenies.

I was once living with a friend on his great aunt’s farm. She had passed away, but all of her cookbooks and all of her other stuff we’re still in the house. I often cooked recipes from Aunt Aida’ older edition of The Joy of Cooking.

It had sections on how to prepare Opossum... rabbit... but most notable was the illustrated section on how to dress a squirrel.

I was at my brother’s house and noted his wife had a newer copy of Joy of Cooking... leafed through it and sure enough...that section had been removed. I found the revisionist trick, just a bit offensive. If I were the author, I would have been furious.

Some sort of opaque material with a label that states “This stuff is really good”.

Why am I envisioning some sorta Japanese cartoon character mascot type thing on the packaging? Like as in Hello Kitty brand raw chicken livers.

When I was serving in the 6th fleet USN, we anchored off of Pireaus, Greece, near Athens, in 1961. The meat markets there all had gutted and skinned cats and dogs hanging in the windows, along with chickens. No refrigeration, so they were apparently in high demand or they would otherwise spoil. .....Street vendors had open grills with kebobs that had been marinated and spiced. Very tasty, and turned out to be dog meat.
