Endtown by Aaron Neathery for August 15, 2014

Ooh, that pun!

It’s an eggstravagansa. ouch

They have an eggstensive inventory. oooh

Sarah doesn’t think it’s a yolk. ahgh

(Don’t egg me on) cries

Melkior – Meds wearing off again?

Looks like the common hoi polloi won’t be going hungry for a while. Gotta wonder what the insiders eat, though…

Makes you question your whole eggsistance.

Somebody’s got the makings of quite the clone army there…..;-)

I see two factions arising: Pro-life vs Pro-omelet..

If they’re parthenogenic, they may lay eggs on a regular cycle, regardless of mating (it’s that time of month again …), in which case eating the unfertilized eggs makes sense. While they couldn’t survive SOLELY on eggs, eating them at least “recycles” most of the protein/calcium, reducing what would otherwise be a major nutritional drain.

Watch for the coming musical: Omalot.

Okay..So the lizards have been compared to Nazis (and Serbs come to mind in Bosnia, while we’re at it). Eliminated all other species, considered undesirable..Now, finally, we see the women of this society..Cordoned off, in a bizarre hatchery which fulfills all speculations about it – nursery and pantry..Honestly, the only positive thing Piotr tried to show her were the “ditto” guards, but that blew up, too..What the heck is Sarah hanging around for?

But…what are the feeding the females to make eggs?

I’d rather not think about what THEY eat to generate the eggs.

I’ll bet that Jim, Holly, and Wally won’t like it, either

I don’t think Sarah will stand for that! or will she be sitting…????

Oooh, nice … Cannibals too (technically speaking).

They were short on space?

Actually, this is one area where the lizards probably have the right idea (unlike Endtown, which got thrown into unnecessary turmoil over this matter). If you’re going to have a very large supply of eggs regardless of what you do, might as well do what you can to make the most of it.

I’m guessing the edible eggs are unfertilized.

At the moment, I’m not that interested in breakfast anymore…

Someone in the past had the twisted humor to start packing them in cartons of 12.Every Easter they play Hide and Seek with the kids. The last one to be found is a rotten egg.

Speculations, anyone, on the different colors? Most are white. Shading of the other eggs is not the result of a shadow, either. Different species of lizard?

THIS is their ace in the hole??

The law of diminishing returns doesn’t just apply to economics. You always get less back than you put in with biological transactions too.

KFC anyone?

I want to mention two things here…

(1) I love the blonde lizard’s hairstyle…(2) Would it help Sarah to mention that even in this post-apocalyptic world…it’s still breakfast time somewhere?

We need a picture of a female lizard in a Rosie the Riveter pose: “We can do it.”

This is a world where people turn into cartoon animals, and you’re wondering why it doesn’t obey the laws of biological science? It’s very simple: One egg goes in, two eggs come out. On that basis, there’s no sensible reason for a starving colony not to live on one another’s body products. There’s only the question of whether they can still call themselves civilized people – humans, for want of a better word – if they break the taboos that we ourselves have set, in order to stay alive. Well? Could YOU? Eating someone else’s egg, robbing and raiding other colonies, massacring the inconvenient, betraying your companions – those things.Questions like this are the brilliance of Endtown.

Bah. The site glitched and I ended up posting three copies of my bad puns. As if once wasn’t too much. :p

A society of bandits whose survival relies on mass breeding programs. So it’s going to be quite an army in a generation.

So long as it isn’t six of one and half a dozen of the other every day…

Just noticing the egg production seems divorced from any consideration of, say, motherhood or fatherhood. Are the children—-if any hatch out from these eggs—-are they raised communally?

Has the situation with the auction block been rectified? Can someone let me know. My email is witchcall63@gmail.com. also to add, whoever bought “Flower Child”, you bought it under false pretenses. My ex promised to return it to me if i settled accounts which i did and then two faced me. It was only a gift on condition we stayed together which she was unfaithful. To everyone else here i apologize for bringing this whole mess out here. This shouldve been a private matter

Those are really big eggs. I wouldn’t want to be a female lizard despite what that one lizard said about it being easy.

My guess is Sarah will not find the ‘opportunities’ here neither appealing, enticing and certainly not exciting (did she get her healing for a life of egg-laying drudgery?). Time for a revolution at Lizardburg and an escape into another adventure.
