The Senate’s top waste watcher, in a new report Thursday, said taxpayer money has gone to funding jello wrestling in the Antarctic

So, you guys think we need to spend money in order to find out if women wrestling in jelly is fun?

How mature of you guys...besides, it's not the women acting like kids that should get you excited, it's the fact they "spent" money on shrimp treadmills that SHOULD have got you upset!

Who claimed to be mature ? Not I, and if being mature means losing interest in women wrestling in jelly I dont ever want to be mature lol

Only things I knows about shrimps I learned from watching Forest Gump lol Not exactly of interest to me but Im sure it is to shrimp farmers trying to raise stocks in captivity, do they grow bigger with more exercise ( room to move ) etc, and with expected food shortages in the years to come anything that can increase yields & stocks is in the public's interest. Im sure you could find weirder things being studied with public funding if you looked, and a great many things with less practical applications.

I disapprove. I fear that forcing them to exercise would make shrimp tougher, and stringier. There's nothing I despise more than seafood that you have to chew.
