Sorry, but I just love sick humor
This is from the Groupon site. I signed up with them long ago, but have never used any of their coupons. I thought the following "Animal Moms" bit at the bottom of the page was funny:
As Mother's Day approaches, it's important to remember all the mothers in the animal kingdom. Here's what you didn't know about the mothering techniques of some animal species:
• Elephants: As soon as baby elephants hatch, their mothers hurl them into trees so they can hone climbing skills and avoid predators.
• Penguins: While it appears that mother penguins are providing their young with a pre-digested, nutrient-rich fish mash, they are actually throwing up because baby penguins are so hideous.
• Lions: Mother lions sometimes eat their young, but you wouldn't blame them if you've ever tried baby lion.
• Seahorses: Lazy seahorse moms don't do anything.
The last one cracked me up. It's true, of course. But seahorses don't eat much of anything either, be they male or female, just whatever they find floating around in the water. Sea oats or whatever. So we'll let them be lazy.
