Ya know, after looking up haybaler in the [Urban Dictionary](http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=haybaler)\* I gotta say despite the vote of 14 to 5 it sounds like hooey to me. I mean, it’s a lot of planning and forethought for not much payoff.

\*About as safe for work as anything in the UD can be.

I’m hoping beyond hope that the man has the sense God gave a goose and called off the wedding, hence making this a moot point.

When we take away ceramic squirrels, people will have to start [slapping each other with hog stomachs and using scissors to stab.](http://www.live5news.com/story/24519371/police-woman-stabbed-by-co-worker-during-argument-over-hog-stomachs)

Stay classy, South Carolina.
