2 Frat Boys koi-napped, killed, BBQed and ate Goldie, beloved pet of UC Santa Cruz

My mom has two Corgis! Not that that has anything to do with the fish, but Corgis are great dogs. Not exactly mascot material, but great dogs.

Eve, that animation was, well … rather odd, and in so many ways too!

  1. Tempura shrimp with little ears

  2. Cat twisting gently in the breeze

  3. Fish headed guy bedding young girl

  4. Cigarette smoking! Gah! Right there on my monitor’s screen!
    Not that any of this damages your reputation, mind you.

Look, how about we say that although frat people are often morons, that this is an exceptional event.

So let’s just call it a fluke.

Latest story on this.

As many as six others may have been involved, but they haven’t been found.

I’m appalled, simply appalled, that they didn’t practice catch and release.

It does make me wonder what the world record for a koi is.

Or, indeed, what BBQ koi tastes like?

People are stupid. Some happen to be very stupid. Some happen to join frats. Some happen to be Polish. Some happen to have blond hair. Watch where you’re waving that broad brush.

That said: I’m pretty glad these guys don’t go to my school. Something about these guys stealing and eating a 5 foot 6 inch anthromorphic orange is damn creepy. So is eating a 20 pound koi. At these the first group of jackasses were just silly. They didn’t kill anything, that we know of…

and of course “at these” means “at least” :frowning:

Where’s PETA when you need it?

Pestering children outside Burger King and pissing off Holocaust survivors by comparing them to chickens.

I said mascot, but they were basically someone’s pets that had the run of the campus. So campus pets are likely more appropriate. Our team names were Cougars, so I suppose a cougar would be our mascot.

Anyways, I am still relieved that it was a fish, not a dog!

This pisses me off.

I own koi (3 of them are around the 15 pound size) and I’ve had them for 10 years. After you get to know them they aren’t like any other fish. They each have their own personality.

I know it sounds strange to think a fish can be more then say, a tweaky neon or loach, but koi really are different. They really can act like little swiming doggies. They’ll follow you around the pond, eat from your hand, nussle you with their nose.

I’m sure there were hundreads of people who enjoyed this animal.

Hearing about shit like this makes me wish stocks were back in style. Put these jerks in stocks for a week and let people fuck with them. I would fly to this town just to chuck potatoes at their faces.

I go to Porter College at UCSC (off campus right now) and for the past few days they had fliers with the fish’s picture on it saying "Have you seen me? If so please return, no questions asked :frowning: " I am so pissed about this I can’t really express it. Porter College is the place were all the art kids hang out, and like what Even Seven said, the pond was a place were people could sit back, listen to the water fountain, and watch some really beautiful fish swiming around (hey even seven, did you see last year when someone made a life size glass replica of the pond?)…I was planning on cussing up a storm on this issue, but whats the point…no matter how beautiful somthing is, someone will always think its funny to fuck with it, but I don’t blame the frats.

I bet only three people on this whole board that :cool:

Ooops, I mean “…only three people on this whole board GET that.” :smack:

I give this thread my prestigious “groaner of the month” award.

fallapart, you are a Porter student. I was an Oakes student. Truly, Barbie Dream Col…err, Eight is the enemy.

Of course it was asinine and sub-adolescent. With frat pranks, that is sort of the point.

Charge them with fishing without a license, make them serve six weekends helping out in the local animal shelter, and get over it.
