Weird. Didn't Lauraw say the other day she ate her twin in the womb?

Whoa. My pro-life ethics are going nuckin' futs trying to get around this one.

Ummm...life of the...father, I guess?

I actually know someone who had a vestigial twin in her body. Small world.

Calling it an embryo is whack, though, and suggests Pravda is as clueless as those villagers. Back when he was alive, in his mothers womb with his sibling, the little guy was an embryo (and/or a baby, for us prolifers.) But bless his heart, that baby died long ago.

"mother's," not mothers.

That would be a very different Weekly World News story, indeed.

Fellow Finally Fillets Failed Fetus From Frame

I'm reminded of the "South Park" episode wherein Nurse Gollum (afflicted with "conjoined twin myslexia") has her dead twin's fetus attached to her face.

Also dug the Neil Diamond song parody in that episode.

Igor Namyatov refused to leave the embryo at the hospital for further research.

Instead, he took it home and gave it internet access, and now it's a frequent commenter at AoS HQ.

It mostly posts at night. Mostly.

Little known fact: this extra head liked Mike's Hard Lemonade.

It's called a "parasitic twin." It watched Oprah and the other didn't.

Mr. Namyatov keeps the embryo in a box in the garden, where he digs it up, gazes at it thoughtfully, and mumbles "little feller..."

Then he goes and eats some french fried pertaters.

Well, no a fetus in fetu is still alive, its just messed up. It can't possibly live outside it's twin on which it feeds.
It's parasitic, feeding on the blood supply of the twin. It's technically alive until you cut off the blood supply. Alive in that it's cells are alive.

You sucker-punched me in the womb. I've been inside you all your life. Watching, listening, planning, waiting.

This story sounds like a great setup for a really raunchy Aristocrats bit.

Hey! Someone stole this idea from my show!

There's a good scene involving one of those unborn-attached-to-your-body twins in My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Anyone remember?

It's good that they removed it, because as we alll know, twins always have sex together and he would have had sex with his fetus twin and that would have been really gross!

Igor? The lumpy-backed buy's name was Igor?

"They imagine he may have given birth via his shoulder blade?"

Of course! Aliens only pop out of people's chest in the movies, silly.
