The Blood-Tooth Mushroom

“The young fruitbody is spongy and characteristically exudes droplets of red fluid. Later the fruitbody becomes tougher and teeth develop on the underside.”

That appears to be a good description of some members of congress, especially the part about developing teeth on the underside. Ugh. I wouldn’t lick it.

BUT if I did I’d prolly run for Senator… and win. My soul would be gone forever, and I’d be sitting on dentures in my old age and talking out my posterior, just like most Senators. Gives me the willies, but it also serves as an appetizer for the Overnight Open Thread.
