Hold up: FritzOwl -> Owl -> Winnie the Pooh -> Xi Jinping

Hmmm...

Are you saying FritzOwl, Winnie the Pooh and the current General Secretary of the Communist Party of China are all the same person?

I think you misunderstood the symbols...

FritzOwl
   is greater than Owl
      is greater than Winnie the Pooh
         is greater than Xi Jinping
Keep right except to pass.  Yes.  You.

That was actually common in Arizona, especially when Elk were involved.  California just passed a road kill law recently.  In the case of the elk it can be some pretty good meat if the kill is still relatively fresh.

If memory serves correct, in Arkansas, the meat (mostly deer) is donated to a local homeless shelter.

Hey, why waste the meat if it isn't spoiled?  Some friends I was with in Payson, Arizona hit an elk about a decade back.  We took it back to the camp ground and it was actually pretty good all things considered.

West Virginia has a roadkill cookoff every year: https://pccocwv.com/wv-roadkill-cook-off/

I seem to recall seeing a news report once about West Virginia passing a statute guaranteeing the motorist's right to keep and consume any roadkill caused by his striking a creature unless the roadkill is human. I'm not sure which part I find more notable–that they felt the need to enact a statute giving you the right to the meat, or that they thought it likely enough that there are cannibals in West Virginia that they needed the "human meat" exception.
"You know, you never have a guaranteed spot until you have a spot guaranteed."

commenting on the Capitals clinching a playoff spot.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"
—Kolzig, to the same reporter a few seconds later.

Wait hol up! Whats wrong with Hamburger helper? It is just a base, you can throw your own mix of ingredients in it. I wouldn't get the crazy flavors they think are "good"  but they have some good recipes & mind you I make most of my foods from scratch.

It induces my gag reflex from the memory of my Mom's lesser cooking endeavors.

Speaking of things like that, do we have a thread for "foods that induce vomiting?"

More like twenty years, I'm not quite that old for it to be a half century. 

I'm not talking about acid reflux, I'm talking about foods that actually induce enough nausea that they could make one vomit.  I haven't quite gotten there myself, but there are been a couple food items over the years that got me gagging enough that I was close.  I kind of have gotten the same reaction at times when looking at things like compound fractures, the only thing I can figure is that it is just sheer revulsion.

That seems more like a Bandit type thread to make and it would probably involve gum somehow.  While I haven't been around for that half century it has been just slightly over 3/8ths of one.  The real thing that ought to spook someone my age is that I'm through half of my life expectancy of an adult male.  Perhaps we could open the floor to discussion about proposals for biological immortality?  I would imagine regenerating telomeres in humans could be quite useful since our growth rate stops.  Cloning technology could be useful if there was some sort of memory download, the real trick is how artificially age your replacement body so one doesn't have to relive childhood.
