We Get Letters!

This was actually a comment but it came in to a post from a few days back and I thought I'd reprint it for your amusement:

You are very rude to be SLAUGHTERING llamas!, you hear me? that is just RUDE and I am VERY disiapointed in you. This is UNBELEIVEABLE that you would kill those ADORBLE little cute llamas!, Yu should be ashaimed in yourself. I have NOTHING else to say to you except for... I'M GOING TO DROP A HOUSE ON YOU!

Signed: A LLAMA LOVER!

The line between commenters who are just goofing around and those who really think that we spend our free time elbow-deep in camelid gore can be quite thin sometimes. I'm going with the former on this one just because of the threat.

For the latter crowd, before you swallow your collective tongues in outrage at our moniker, consider asking yourselves the question: Are "Llama Butchers" butchers who specialize in llamas, or are they llamas engaged in the profession of butchering? And what kind of "butchering" are we talking about here? Physical? Metaphorical? Colloquial? (Put that into your tinfoil pipe and smoke it!)

That's us Llama Butchers: A riddle wrapped in a mystery inside wool.

Wait - so you don't go around slaughtering llamas (or are llamas goig around slaughering other creatures)? I am so disappointed.

See, I always thought you were llamas who went around butchering other, non-camelid, creatures.

What sauce do you recommend on llama?

One shouldn't use Bearnaise sauce, it has too much nose and leaves one with salmon-breath.

I would think a llight llemon juice and white wine glaze would be delightful.

How about a llavender enfused llime juice sauce.

The quoted comment sounds like it came from Jar Jar.
