That's a crazy picture cause it looks like your eyes are two different colors.
you say "greetings from earth" as someone who i assume is from earth. however before you said "hello earthlings!" as if you were from some other world come to regretfully bestow us lowly earthlings with your obviously superior knowledge.
so which is it? I NEED TO KNOW. it's important we approach you with proper deference.
Hughman, I assume (oh, what a dangerous practice) that when she said "hello earthlings!" she had arrived here and was addressing us, but with "Greetings from Earth" she is now settled here and addressing her companions from home, letting them know how she is spending her time while she is here. Also, I agree. SNAKES.
NGP, I think the comma gives it a sense of drama. H, clearly NGP meant to type "cooked Bok"! (Seriously NGP, I loved the reference. If only we could attach sound bytes to comments!)
I can ease your concerns by sharing that this alien overlord is a dedicated vegetarian, the alpha vegetarian in our home, who delights in telling her mother off when her mother cheats with a bit of crab or lobster [I assert that crabs and lobsters are just bugs, water bugs, and Iris kills annoying bugs without guilt, but she will not take the point].

people, this is what i have following me around and staring all the time. No wonder I drink.
i'm confused (again).

also, snakes.
Shouldn't this come with some kind of warning label beforehand?
Could be titles "Iris Iris's" or "Iris's Iris's"

"It's a cook bbok!!!"
Someone, please fix my typo!
...and remove the extraneous comma from my previous request.
goatse, is that last word supposed to be "block"?

Greeting, Iris uber Alles. We cower before your greatness.
This has 14 comments!!! It should be in the best of the drunken housewife.
-Iris
Vegetarian, may she be, I am still concerned. Many people have co9nfused me with a vegetable. My wife once called me a turnip.
Just to be safe, I'm going to de-clothe and cover myself in gravy.
Hugh, I opened a ticket in the next post. You can read the details there.
Oh, yummy! I luuuurvs graaaaavy!
