Hey give the poor turtle a break - he was suicidal and thought he could fly off the top of a tall building - it wasn’t his fault some kid got in he way!

Just you typical Chinese Tutrle Derangement Syndrom (CTDS). This will be covered under ObamaDeathCare, Section 12.

A Chinese girl was lost her memory and had to be taken to hospital after she was hit on the head by a pregnant tortoise.
Go easy on the tortoise, okay? The poor thing is a pregnant single mom, and was just trying to get a little cash so her little tortoise babies would get a decent start in life.

Reminds me of the classic “ WKRP Turkey Drop”

OMG that was such a hysterical episode. To this day it cracks me up. Truly a memorable comic moment. Thx for the reminder...

Sounds like the opening of one of Sir Terence David John Pratchett’s Disc World books, Small Gods.
