Back to the topic. 
A guy goes into a seafood restaurant and asks to see the dishes of the day. The waiter wheels over a trolley and the man examines the dishes.
"I'll have the little green squid with the hairy lip, please" says the man.
"Okay." replies the waiter and calls out "Gervais!!"
A little French chef appears with a large knife, the waiter instructs the chef to kill the little green squid with the hairy lip.
Gervais is just about to slice at the poor squid when he notices a tear running down its face.
Gervais is touched, and admits that he hasn't the heart to kill the squid.
"Not to worry" says the waiter, and calls out "Hans!!" at which an enormous German bloke comes out of the kitchen.
"Sir", says the waiter, "this is Hans, the dishwasher. Hans, kill that squid!"
The dishwasher wields a huge rolling pin and is just about to bludgeon the little green squid with the hairy lip when it cringes back and gives a little cry.
"I am sorry sir, I just cannot kill the squid" Hans admits, his lower lip trembling.
"Well sir," says the waiter, "it just goes to show...
...
That Hans that do dishes, can be soft as Gervais. with mild green, hairy lip squid"

Thank you for conceding that point, & I'm happy to discuss the meaning of life with you , but in fairness to the original poster this thread , is or was about being soft, perhaps you could start your own thread , I'm sure that would be interesting, & I'm sure would get many replies!.
Point taken saasher, and thank you for putting it so politely., although I doubt a thread of mine about the meaning of life would get as many replies as a thread about a little green squid with a hairy lip, lol.... Do you 
I must be getting too old and serious lol, as I just cringed reading it, don't mean to offend It just didn't make me laugh.
Yes, a linked, site. Where the unnecessary language begins. And the also where the cracked minds surface.
I wonder why some visit that vile stuff. But they obviously do.
Anyway, rather than start a new thread, this thread seems the appropriate place for it, so would you, or someone, please put up the link, to the Mail On Line story on Perfectly healthy: Marius the baby Jiraffe, who was shot dead and autopsied in the presence of visitors to the gardens at Copenhagen Zoo.
Apart from rage! one of the my many thoughts are why they just could not neuter him? And I don't believe given a reasonable time that no one would have given him a home. What an absolute disgrace of a Zoo. Shame on them. Some should be warned if you view that link, but that's the reality.
Sickening, isn't it. There are pictures in today's Daily Mail. Ironically, few of the kids look that distressed about it. Most of them are standing there gawping as if it was the aftermath of a serious car smash, and some are taking pictures! No worse than me when I was a kid, chasing fire engines and ambulances on my bike, hoping - sometimes successfully, to sell the pictures to the paper. It's a phase we all go through. A perfectly healthy animal put down - why the hell didn't it be given to Whipsname or Woburn, or why not have it "adopted" by people prepared to pay towards it's upkeep? That's what they used to do at London Zoo. I knew a kid whose Dad went through the process - for the princely sum of £5.00 - a lot of money in those days, somewhere amongst 300,000-odd a drone bee took on the suitable haughty name of Copernicus! 
It's the smaller creatures that find a special place in my heart. The caterpillar with it's voratious appitite eating endless mulberry leaves, turning itself into a chrysalist then finally, just at the right time emerging as a new born butterfly, drying it's wings in the sun as it's tiny veins fill with blood - it takes about half-an-hour, before it flies off to it's final destiny to find a mate lay eggs and begin the cycle of life all over again. To me, anyway, it symbolises life after death. To all intents and purposes the caterpiller was dead, and a chrysalist doesnt look like anything, and yet the gift - the Gift of Life continues zillions of times throughout every corner of the world. How happy am I that there s so much I don't know.
i HOPE UPON HOPE THAT SOMEONE GETS SEVERELY DONE FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!... SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ALLOWED TO HAPPEN... DISPICABLE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
