Good News for the Economy!
I'm amazed nobody has said it thus far, so here goes . . .
"And I, for one, *welcome* our new crusteacous overlords."
Also,
"NO! It is *I* who will eat *you*!"
Look, it's obvious they're NOT going to turn against us! We created them! Would a creature turn against its creator? Get over your paranoia already!
That was excellent. And if they do turn against us they could feed a small town. Or a small town would feed them. Hmmm....
You guys, this lack of posting in the comboxes (only a handful of posts in many days) is causing my words to get backed-up to the point of exploding. I am threatening to make long silly posts to relieve the pressure. Down with exploding Chickens. Post.
I have no life, you know.
The Chicken
Okay, as a scientist (honestly; I've done my piling higher and deeper), I'm surprised that The Onion™ would take such a serious subject as the trustworthiness of scientist and use it as a frame in which to bludgeon the talking-head format of news programs. It casts a slur on all of us scientists, who would never do anything disreputable or dangerous. Why, I'm offended at the slight cast on us ever-honest scientists.

Then again, irony is wasted on some people.
