Asian Carp: Impersonate A2Kers

OmSigDAVID

I gave the carp some time to relax n calm down n then swim away.
Then I heard a LOUD bang.
the carp was ded.
Well, if u r neglecting to arm yourself,
that does not leave much to defend your honor.
I have no information as to whether thay ever sought to petition Me
for the assistance of benevolent care or not. But thay shud have carried a gun.

Here's one I've been wondering for awhile. When I first started eating this Asian carp, several years ago, the apparent owner of this Asian carp fish farm, or at least, the chief admin. I assumed had sole distributorship of all Asian Carp. but since he hasn't visited the fish farm in years, as far as I can tell, how does that work exactly, how do Asian carp survive without proper care? Maybe this isn't a fish farm after all. What was his purpose, then? Was he just an Asian carp distributer to us or what's the deal?

What's with all this talk about Asian carp?

They're fish. Beautiful animals. Love dem fish.

This fish can jump.


A carp can't swim now without being shot already?

This person who shoots fish, what a putz. He should drink too much castor oil. May he become filthy rich and buy a hotel with a thousand rooms. And may he then drop dead in every one of them.

To understand the Asian carp, we need to go back to the end of the fifteenth century, when Genoese adventurer Cristoforo Colombo approached Fernando of Aragon and Isabella of Castille with the proposition that he could reach Asia by travelling westward. Asia is, of course, the home of the Asian carp, although it is unknown if Colombo was aware of the Asian carp specifically or whether he was drawn to the orient by descriptions brought back by Marco Polo and other European explorers of fish that may or may not have been members of the carp family. It would be more than two centuries until Carl von Linné would develop a classification system that would place the carp in its proper taxonomic category. Before that time, the Catholic church decreed the North American beaver to be a type of fish, although not necessarily a type of carp. This decree allowed devout Catholics to eat beaver on Fridays, a practice that was subsequently discontinued when it was realized that reading the decree at mass caused too much inappropriate laughter among the congregants. Later, during the American Civil War, federal troops in the trans-Mississippi theater would be forced to live on half rations as the result of Confederate raiders cutting their supply lines. It is likely that these troops, if given the chance, would have eaten an Asian carp.

In short, the Asian carp is an invasive, non-native species and a threat to North American aquaculture, which you would know if you bothered to pay any attention, you nauseating puke.

Yer a bad man!

Is that an Asian Carp in your pants or are you just happy to see me?

That 's a beautiful job, perfect but for the undetected fact
that since age 13, I have not begun a sentence with a conjunction.

In Canada, the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans has evaluated the risk of Asian carp invading Canadian waters, particularly the Great Lakes, either by introduction from the Mississippi or through the market in live carp.[16] A few bighead carp (the arrogant ones) and grass carp (the hippies one) have been captured in Canada's portions of the Great Lakes, but no Asian carp (other than common carp, an originally eurasian species) is known to be established in Canada at this time. In Mexico, grass (the does it kill their brain one) carp have been established for many years in at least two river systems, where they are considered invasive, but no other Asian carp are known to have been introduced.

Vanity has slipped in and Gold Carp Jack Fruit Mirrors are suspicious of our desire for mastery and mystery, especially in the important sequence of poems that includes A Theory of the Function of the Confusion of Things, A Theory of the Origin of Birth, A Theory of the Choke of Dust, and A Theory of the Shape of Palms. These poems are not idle, navel-gazing excursions as their titles suggest; instead they grow more tactile as the speaker’s pilgrimage continues, reconsidering the abstracted “function of the confusion of things” as, eventually, the embodied experience of “the choke of dust” and “the shape of palms.” A Theory of the Function of the Confusion of Things establishes this tension between abstraction and physicality with the speaker imagining his sudden death and eventual cremation in an Indian charnel ground alsong with the creamation of his Asian Carp.

I noticed the Look of Disapproval is following only Gus, Slappy, and me. I feel the same thrill I did consorting with troublemakers in grade school.
