We should notify PETA. I love watching leftists fight.

Guinea pigs, cousins of the rabbit, are edible.

Time to break out the blankies, teddy bears, and warm milk. It’s trigger time.

I seem to recall they reproduce almost as rapidly if allowed to. That could be interesting in a college dorm setting...

I wonder how many of these special folks can change a flat or even a lightbulb. (Yes, I have done both, in full disclosure.)

I actually installed a new showerhead using plumbers tape before. These folks would probably wonder how you could call it tape when it does not feel sticky.

Wait until one of those furry SOBs bites someone. Those critters have some serious buck teeth and go for blood.

Roasted guinea pigs are a popular dish in areas of South America-I hope none of the snowflakes run out of food-instead of stress relief animals, those guinea pigs might be the main course at dinner...

This is not actually helping them deal with real life.

I hope the guinea pigs pee on them.

Just to be mean, a person should remind them that they are food in Central American and that is so culturally insensitive of them to cuddle someones food.
