Sounds like a good start. Let's build a Nuke plant close by and see what we get next.

The real nuisance in Osceola is the two legged foreign language speaking mulletheads.

Aw, that's nothing. Pandas ate all the leaves off my buddha belly bamboo. I have to spray twice a month now to kill the goddamned things. And you should see what they can do to a front bumper if you hit one with your car. Splattering a cane toad on your running boards is insignificant by comparison.

Just pave over every inch of the lakeshore and cut down all the trees in the area problem solved, no habitat no problems. After all the runoff and crap from the condos leeches into the water and every inch of the lake is infested with jet skis there will be no ecosystem to whine about.

Alan: it would almost be worth it to do that to be able to watch morons like you have to drink their own filtered pishwater as a consequence.
