1. How dare you eat turtles!! I'm offended!!

[NuclearDem]

5. Eat turtles?! Never!

I raise them as the foot soldiers in my mighty reptilian army.

[awoke_in_2003]

24. Yeah, but they are easier to get away from...

than zombies.

[penultimate]

2. Great job at objectifying turtles for your own pleasure

[NuclearDem]

4. Yurtlephobe!

What me and Senator McConnell do on our own time is our business!

[CAG]

6. Cheap turtle exploitation is what i say...

Whats next, posting pictures of turtles in bikinis and speedos??!!

[Autumn]

3. I do too, but not right after dinner.

7. Do turtles exclusively live in the sea?

Or are the things like "snapper turtles" actually tortoises? I could never get that straight.

I do enjoy a good snapper soup. Eating sea turtles is, of course, illegal almost everywhere except for Cayman, where they raise them in a turtle hatchery which has been no stranger to controversy.

8. IIRC, turtles live in all kinds of terrain and waters. . .

. . .depending on their species.

Tortoises are non-swimming turtles.

Terrapins are swimming turtles that live in fresh and brackish waters, ie. tidal estuaries; and are eaten as a delicacy along the mid-Atlantic (ie. Maryland - "The Terrapin State&quot

Sea turtles, of course, live and swim in the ocean.

9. They are all "turtles", then?

[DinahMoeHum]

13. Yes.

[jberryhill]

17. Well I'll be damned

The next time I hear, "that's a tortoise, not a turtle" I shall be prepared.

[DinahMoeHum]

21. Just tell them that a tortoise. . .

. . .is a species of turtle.

[treestar]

10. I like all of them except the Senator from Kentucky

[DinahMoeHum]

14. What about that box turtle from Texas?

Or is it Pennsylvania?

[awoke_in_2003]

25. Pennsylvania is man on dog. nt

[DinahMoeHum]

26. Thanks, I figured it out and looked it up. . .

"Man-On-Dog" refers to ex-Senator Rick Santorum of PA.

"Man-On-Box-Turtle" refers to current Senator John Cornyn of Texas.

15. ahahhaha what an obnoxious theme song

I grew up watching that (like many kids in the 80's) I used to have all the cool little action figure toys and everything. I even got excited a few years back when they came out with the new movie (which totally disappointed me though)

[yuiyoshida]

19. Hey, they are my boys! I wanted to be April O'Neil!

I grew up chewing on Leonardo toys... LOVED the Turtles, and by the way the Comics were freaking awesome! I think Dark Horse put them out, but I could be wrong. Loved all the Turtle Movies, and they were corny as hell...but Hella fun!

[Squinch]

12. Well, you're wrong!
