Those damned cows

What's Mallard raving about today?

Cows, the U.N., greenhouse gasses, flatulence.

Honestly, I think Mallard has gone off the deep end. This particular premise was idiotic the first time it appeared. But to have it show up twice, non-sequentially, simply boggles the imagination.

But since we're forced to be here again, let me try to make a few things clear to Mallard:
  1. Statements of scientific fact are simply statements of scientific fact; attacking and mocking science just makes you look like a member of the Flat Earth Society.
  2. The number of cattle in the world is actually a function of human activity.
  3. The report Mallard keeps referencing is from 1994, for God's sake.
  4. Hot air is not a greenhouse gas.

Of course, if hot air was a greenhouse gas, etc etc etc! Ho ho ho!

If it was, we'd have Tinsley's damnass comic pulled for being an environmental hazard.

How long into the new year is Mallard going to continue boozing? Jeez- it's only the 2nd and I'm already back at my desk. But not that Conservative role model Fillmore! Maybe that cup of "Daddy's Medicine" is going to be a permanent fixture. Can't wait until the cartoon where he finally realizes the party ended and he stumbles to his car to drive home- that should be a hoot! Keep chugging ya grumpy lil' bitch- nobody likes a quitter...

Hot air is a greenhouse gas. Greenhouse gases lead to global warming. Global warming. Hot air.

So obvious.

Will Mallard make a resolution next about that liquid he's been holding for a couple weeks?


And wait, the cow 'resolved'? Resolutions are not in the past, not unless you've already broken them.

Every time I think he's plumbed the depths of drunken stupidity, he surprises me. Please, MF, stop. Please. I don't want to become a liberal, but I may have no choice.

I just noticed this over in the "Reality Check" comic. Oh no! It's a vast cow/comic conspiracy!
