Meh, it’s all good.
Cthulhu stew, anyone?
Although I’m a vegetarian, I’ll make an exception - excellent idea, green_bladder!
Perhaps some evil rice on the side, a big 'ole vicious cornbread…yummy!
Hey, I read that thread. I was going to say the same thing about eating goldfish, but D.C. beat me to it, the bastard.
And now I’ve got a craving for fish sticks. Again.
While sometimes it seems that Dread Cthulhu is Cthulhess[sup]1[/sup] in board etiquette, his sardonic wit has amused me several times in different threads. But you all are neglecting the obvious solution: ask HPL to keep him under control.[sup]2[/sup]
[sup]1[/sup] According to authorities, Cthulhu is pronounced, more or less, as KLOO-loo.
[sup]2[/sup] I figure, as his creator, he must have some influence over him.
On one hand, the OP’er is taking a big risk to not be eaten first.
On the other hand, I will also take that risk & suggest that while I don’t consider most of DC’s cited responses as out of line- he should cool it when someone mourns the loss of a pet or expresses regret over accidentally killing an animal.
Didn’t I mention long pig? 
Yep, I am an evil bastard who enjoys the misery of others. Nothing anyone can do about it.
Well, actually, I can ban you. And unless I see a lot more courtesy from you, I will. This courtesy can be as simple as not posting jerkish responses in threads where people are exposing pain. In fact, that is the minimum acceptable courtesy that I will expect.
You’re on your last warning, DreadCthulhu. One more act of jerkishness and you lose your posting privileges.
Ah, good one. I’m glad you clarified, because at first glance I thought you were proposing the existence of a Mrs. Cthulhu. Which is also kind of funny, when you think about it.
Oh come on Lynn, lighten up a bit. The guy is only having a bit of fun…isn’t he?
I doubt very much he eats goldfish or makes kitten or gerbil stew.
Long pig maybe 
At Home With The Cthulhus.
I can see poor ol’ Cthulhu struggling along with household chores while Mrs C screeches away at her herd of dogs & the surly teen son & daughter scream “F- you!” at each other!
Next season on MTV!
If Cthulhu (when he arises) is anything like Ozzy Osbourne, I don’t think it will be so much a case of who he eats first, but rather who he first bumps into or trips over.
Someone’s vying for entree into One-Trick-Ponydom…
Aren’t there probably some friendlier forums out there where people who get emotionally attached to potential food sources can get unanimous sympathy?
Instead of, you know, here…
Back to the 1/12-scale abattoir.
Amen!
I found DreadCthulhu’s comments in those threads to be fascinating comments on our society’s increasing anthromorphisation of domestic animals to a role beyond that of simply “animal companion.” By sugesting the domestic consumption of our pets, he reminds us of the symbtiotic origins of our relationship with domesticated animals–this serves to highlight how that relationship has become less symbiotic and more parasitic as pets lose the ability to contribute anything more then a target for displaced emotions in our decreasingly rural society.
OK, OK. I really just think he’s funny. Ban him if you must–I still think he’s amusing.
METACOM: I’ll bet you £20 to a pinch of shit you could not say that lot if you were shit faced
Hey ** Metacom **, for that, you get to be eaten first. Really, I just have a very dark sense of humor, and tend to find what most people consider tragic to be quite funny. I laugh in the face of Death. Or at holocaust videos.
And before anyone calls me anti-semetic, I laugh at just about any group of people dieing - even death of relative I found quite funny in way.
Even with the quick backpedal, you have to know that’s gonna bite you in the ass.
