She must be a member of Menses.” • Best Comment Of The Day, in response to Thinly Veiled: “Oh yeah? Well, The People-Who-Are-Trying-Way-Too-Hard Store just called, and they’re running out of you.” • Best Comment Of The Day, in response to Hen Beats Own Recent “World’s-Largest-Egg” Record: “You know that somewhere on that farm, a rooster is swaggering around like Lil Wayne.” And! “I smell a reality show in this: Harriet the Hen Plus Ten or some such thing. A cross between Fear Factor and All Creatures Great and Small. And!

The rooster, when interviewed, flew off the handle and yelled about being cuckold by Harriet.
“That isn’t my egg!” he was quoted as saying, claiming Harriet had been unfaithful. “I saw her friend some ostrich on Facebook!”
The couple have decided to take their grievances to Maury, who promised the episode would be “egg-cellent”.
