DAMNIT!
Some good one-liners in there though......


The article about tits Wrote:older great tits keep on breeding every year, says Bouwhuis: 'They carry on to the bitter end'.

Such hardworking great tits do age more swiftly than tits that get going at a more relaxed pace,

'It's the theory of the "disposable body" -- investing in offspring instead of body maintenance. But why all great tits don't follow this tactic is not clear.'

It's perfectly possible that elderly great tits have aging characteristics that we just don't notice but which are very clear to other great tits.'


I used to tell a lot of religious jokes. Not any more, I'm a registered sects offender.

I have no idea what to think, this title and following quotes has left me dazed and confused... It will be some time before I rationalize this as a win for me.

Edit: explanation: Me and boyfriend are competing with each other to break each others brains better. Minimalist Just broke mine hard though, so I'll have to recover before I can use it. I am so showing that man up for his reliance on the likes of uncyclepedia.

Although great tits can live for nine years, breeding success declines rapidly after the age of two. Nevertheless, older great tits keep on breeding every year, says Bouwhuis: 'They carry on to the bitter end'.

I might point out that the greater the tit, the earlier strike the age-related defects. Even with tits, moderation is key to longevity.
