Anyone have some Agent Orange I can use? Weeds from my two neighbors' yards are invading my yard. I have to go hack back one of these. It's like 10 feet tall and dropping berries all over the yard.

Ahhh, Poke.   You know you can eat them (the younger shoots and plants, anyway).  Lots of folks do around where I live.   
They're poisonous, but if you change the water several times while boiling them, it gets rid of a majority of the poison.

I yoinked out the poke that invaded. They got some tough roots, had to dig one up. I'm not sure I'd trust myself to cook it properly, and I know someone who needed a liver transplant because they ate poisonous plants before. I really don't want to go through that.

The roots aren't edible, as they're much more toxic than the shoots and leaves.  Berries are toxic too.  It's really recommended that if you want to eat Poke, you only eat the newer growth that hasn't taken on a lot of red color yet.

Still, I don't blame you.  I probably wouldn't trust myself to cook it right on my own either.

If this plant requires so much stuff to be acknowledged before you ever bother to even cook it, let alone eat it, you should probably leave it alone.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

I was going to point how how those berries appeared to look tasty, then I realized they're poisonous, so I won't pick up those berries any time soon.

I'll just leave this here for you all to enjoy. I suppose now you'll all be occupied for the next few days.

I had already broken the billion mark, and then I found out there was a new version. Damn it all.

Wait, scratch that. You can import your saves from the previous version (until September 1st). I'm still a cookie billionaire.

I've decided to combine The Simpsons and translator poetry. A certain well-known phrase, English -> Japanese -> English:

I welcome the new insect monarch of us for
It may help me as TV Personality trusted
Others to toil in rounding
It is a cave of sugar in their basement.


Is it just me, or does badly translated Japanese always have a serene, philosophical feel to it regardless of content?

^I thought I was the only one to notice that.  It does sound very poetic and zen.  Dew of the mountain (Mountain Dew) indeed.
