Momma and Daddy don’t like their baby being a mutant and the doctors are looking to cure him? Where do they get these funny ideas?
All flippancy aside, this baby does have serious health problems like curvature of the spine and only one kidney. That’s what random mutation really is. I’m grateful that my own “mutation” is purely cosmetic.
The display’s probably a messy prank, but either way it adds more fuel to ideas for nWoD games… and justification for cops in said games to ignore paranormal activity, no? “Eh, we get this kinda thing a couple times a year. Usually it’s just a couple’a highschool kids out fer laughs.”
Woman Claims Class Ring Recovered From Catfish
Cool. Years after it’s lost, it turns up in a catfish trap, prompting a police search for news of whether the owner’s dead at the bottom or alive somewhere. It’s a good thing they did their homework before dragging the pond, no?

Okay, so they’re not really skaven. Big deal.

“You Can’t Act Tough Whne You are Sitting a Foot and a Half Away From A Snake”
Uh… you can if it’s a dinky little two-foot python. They’re more cute than dangerous, as far as I’m concerned, though you should treat any strange animal with respect. Stopping the car and arranging for the authorities to pick up the snake to find its owner was the right move, however. Minus the freaking out bit, of course. This guy’s in charge of an athletic program? Wuss.

Rule #1 – Never assume it’s a rubber snake and put the car in drive. Always check first.

We are in agreement.
Rule #2: Don’t be a sissy when it turns out to be a real snake.

Dude, “Don’t be a sissy” is Rule #0 – the only time where it’s valid to be a “sissy” is when your heart has been stomped on by some evil woman (and then you’re only allowed for the first 5 days, and then for a couple months afterwards, but only on limited occasions, including drinking too much, or when watching her favourite show, etc.)
And when someone puts a gun to your head and says “Cry like a sissy!” – but then that’s not REALLY being a sissy, that’s acting like one b/c someone has a gun to your head and you’re rather partial to keeping your brainy squishy bits inside.

As for the mutant baby, so far it seems only a risk that it will have a curved spine. It would be awesome to see the kid come up with a fully functional triad of arms, though.

A fully functional third arm would truly be awesome. The kid could actually fly a helicopter properly.

So it would be down to him and the T-1000 from Terminator 2 for that ability.

His parents are permanently stopping his future career as a circus freak if they take that off. Barnum and Bailey’s bearded lady will have to just be alone…… sad.

Why isn’t there a true Freaks’ Rights movement?
