With a different wording and a pic of your little guy I hope you can find a nice home for him.

My mind didn't get to the gutter till this. Then I reread it all and about fell out of my chair laughing.

Sorry Bumplett, sometimes CL pple have way too much time on their hands...er...hope that didn't come out wrong, I mean...uh...hope that didn't sound tongue in cheek...Oh Crap, that's not what I meant! Ugh...

...sigh, I am gonna end up getting this thread closed. So I'd better shaddup before I get us all in trouble...

Does it matter if it remains a pet or is it okay to use as a food source?

sorry....When I read it the first time, it didn't seem like it was about a rooster. I hope the rooster finds a good home!
CL people need to lighten up!

LOL! Seeing that the other pets are still there and yours isn't, I would say they read it with a double meaning. LOL!

**bumplett** · 07-31-2011, 09:29 AM

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OMG, now THAT'S funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"blind in one eye" = "one eyed rooster"

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't breathe!!!

*snort*

*cough*

ok, ok - I'm fine...... *cough*

seriously, he really is blind in one eye.

LOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I did relist him in the farm/garden section - so we're good.

and to answer an earlier question about whether or not it matters if he's food - while I realize I have no control over what happens after he's relocated, I would prefer that noone eats him - *shudder*

I checked CL again this morning & all the pets that were listed yesterday are no longer there. So I guess someone found something to keep them busy yesterday - all that flagging must be exhausting.

Oh! I bet I know who she is. She just retired here and has made it her job to police everyone's business. Seriously, it would not surprise me one bit if she were going state by state, town by town flagging posts.

I just don't have the heart to flag posts in the wrong area - that's just mean.

If I don't want to read it, I skip it.

and ohhhhh boy, there are some super fanatic pet natzis on CL - they get outright MEAN.

I do love reading the rants & raves though, they crack me up. Oh, and the best of - my fav is still on there - it's from the guy in New Orleans written to the red headed MILF. It's soooooooo funny!

Now the little red rooster is an ongoing joke between hubby and I, it's just soooo funny that it could be read differently than intended.

and even funnier that it went right over my head -

**MissSeetonFan** · 08-01-2011, 12:07 AM

That was funny!

Good luck finding another home for the rooster.

Sorry to say - but I am so glad that this happened to you - love chuckling here to myself as it got more and more involved!! Please let us know when you find a new home for your in-laws dear little rooster!!
