Oh my!




Just got word that the courthouse has been shut down because of crabs. Yep, THOSE kind of crabs. Developing . . .

Edit: Seems like this morning some "itty bitty crab like" bugs were seen on a couple of toilets and then it was discovered that the little critters were seen on a toilet on a different floor. Not being an expert on "crabs", I'm not real sure what they were.

Edit: One commenter had an astute observation: Two weeks ago there is was an Easter Party in the courthouse and now we have this scandal? It's like the Battle of Good and Evil is taking place right before our eyes!

Can't be. "Crabs" is a term reserved for pubic lice. Transmitted through, well, lingering meetings between pubic areas or the occassional shared wet towel or wash rag. They like armpits, too. Similar environments. No, unless there are some free-roaming pubes in the courthouse, can't be real crabs. Bet it's the head lice variety.

No these are the std lice but they have mutated. They are able to swim underwater and may infest the entire Northern part of Texas.

What about sitting on a toilet after a crab infested pubic area has been there?

My #1 rule never never never sit on a public toilet.

I remember when the Clay County Courthouse got shut down because of fleas. But Wise County wins with the crabs. AHAHAHAHAHAHA.........only in freaking Wise County. You people are hilarious. Everybody here in my office are LTA'sO right now! You can rest assured my private parts will not be lingering on anything in Wise County, not that they ever have. I avoid Wise County like the plague. Oh wait! Now I know why! Hahahahahaha!

This story is becoming very fishy. On all the toilets?

Just think: Your precious tax dollars are paying for a whole building full of employees to be off.....
Wait.....there weren't any crabs to begin with, were there? Those lazy people just didn't want to go back to work after a long weekend!! I would like to see proof, Your Honor!!
No sir, I for one, will not fall prey to this fabricated lie these public officials would like for us to believe.

It's just the McDonald's crabs moving over to the Courthouse. Ya'll know how crabs are - when one of their homes gets demolished, they just go find another one. Poor Courthouse.

The crabs in the courthouse are not the worst thing but they are bad. If we exterminate the crabs could we also execute the lawyers? Crabs and lawyers go hand in hand.

3:10PM is right, and it's all big oil's fault, because of all the fraccing. Golly only knows what's buried in the bowels of the Earth, just waiting to get set loose when they do that evil shiate. Or, it could be meth-related toxic waste splashes from the Courthouse toilets?

That's hilarious. I would definitely deal with a case of crabs if I could be guaranteed that the lawyers would be executed.

My girl friend works in the Court house and I have noticed her acting a little crabby lately. Hum?

I don't think crab pesticide is strong enough to kill lawyers, 3:50PM. That calls for something much stronger - like arsenic or anthrax. Maybe even one of those electrocution traps.

Barry, don't you worry sweetie. They have to be talking about some other lawyers - not you.

Well, you wouldn't be at risk of picking up crabs off a toilet seat unless you ground yourself around on it, or you have moist folds in your rear end that the crab can subsist off of until such time it can journey to its ultimate destination.

Now just what is the crab's ultimate destination, 4:15PM?

I've heard that you can catch AIDS from the toilet seat, if you sit down before the other guy is finished.

I would like to thank you personally Barry for taking a situation (a public health concern) that was attempted to be used to get a potental problem under control and blowing so out of proportion that now fox news is involved. You should be ashamed of yourself. You just report the news, right? You do not make right? Well, how about a little discretion on your precious little blog!!!!! I expected more from you BG.
