#3 Butter on mine please. If I'm going to watch entertainment, I have to have butter on popcorn. By Allan, it's tradition!

#4 #2 The Paleo situation is like having red and black ant wars in a terrarium.

Sorry, Alaska Paul, but just this once I've definitely got to disagree with you. The Palestinians are most definitely not like industrious red or black ants. My vote is for hissing cockroaches:

Hissing plays an important role during male-male inter- actions. Winners of encounters hiss more than losers. The hisses of males also contain information about the size of the male hissing and may be used to assess the opponent's size. Males can also discriminate among the hisses of familiar males and strangers. These hisses are audible and can be heard by observers. Although this species is primarily nocturnal, you can see males fighting during the day.

Males also hiss during courtship interactions with females ... Although hissing plays an important role in colony hierachy and courtship interactions, it is the disturbance hisses that most people are familiar with.

To continue:

They are omnivores, although carrion is probably their principal diet. In captivity they are quite happy to eat their dead brothers and sisters ...
