I think invasion is too strong a term. Maybe, a special operation of antelopes?

Also, discouraging words are seldom heard there, and in the daytime the skies are cloudless.

Sounds like they are about to join Australia in loosing a war to animals.

He should consider himself lucky. Next time, it’s the rabbits. Ask Napoleon.

The Daily Star is really more entertaining semi-fiction than news, but this is still Onion-worthy.

Remind me. Antelopes: Delicious or nah?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 hours ago (3 children)

Pretty much all meat is delicious cooked right.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Except moles. Apparently they taste like shit however you cook em.

You're a bunny, you're not even exotic meat.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 hours ago

Yeah, but they might have Mad Mad Bunny disease. You don't want none of them prions, dawg.

Great, I searched for long pork recipes and now I guess I'm on a ton of watchlists 😐

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 hours ago

You always were.

You should look up the foot taco stuff on reddit, if its still there. It was a while ago.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago

Best I can do is burger king foot lettice.

Probably delicious when cooked right. Never had antelope, but reindeer and moose are probably in the same pallpark and those are both good.

One day Oversimplified will cover this on youtube. Just like the pig war and the emu war.

And he'll release it right after he covers vietnam. Which will be in approximately 90 years.
