Thanks guys! This is awesome. I just need to say that Eddie & Thelma are basically perfect names for otters.

"Alex a fine job with her duties, while Erik failed spectacularly at getting even a single in-focus photo of the river otters."

Other than not using verbs, Alex did a fine job, that is.

It's been scientifically proven that seeing cuteness makes our brains work better. So thanks for helping me stay focused on work this Friday!

I feel these posts are receiving too much universal love—which will never do... and so:

OTTERS ARE THE RATS OF THE RIVER WORLD!! THEY ARE NASTY, DISEASE SPREADING VERMIN THAT MUST BE SHUNNED!! HILLBILLIES! TAKE TO YOUR WEAPONRY AND EXTERMINATE THESE DISGUSTING CREATURES BEFORE THEY MURDER AND RAPE YOUR CHILDREN!!

(Ahem.) Thank you.

Is it strange that I look forward to Otter Friday with rapt anticipation? I hope not, because I look forward to Otter Friday with rapt anticipation.

A+ post and use of time!

And I hope Commenty Colin can look at those adorable pictures of Tilly & BC and APOLOGIZE FOR THE VERY WRONG THINGS HE'S SAID ABOUT RIVER OTTERS.

Sure, they're cute, right up until the moment they BITE YOUR UNDERBELLY AND SUCK THE ROE FROM YOUR QUIVERING BODY.

My bad, I forgot to add "necrophilic". NECROPEDOPHILIC INTERSPECIAL RAPIST OTTERS.

Counterpoint: You can't spell "necropedophilic interspecial rapist" without SPECIAL!

(SEA) OTTERS ARE SPECIAL YAY

UGH... THIS ARTICLE IS BULLSHIT. I SWEAR TO GOD THAT A THIRD GRADER WROTE THIS AFTER READING A POORLY EDITED WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE ON OTTER SLASHFIC. CAN WE FIRE ALEX AND REPLACE HER WITH THREE PUGS TAPED TOGETHER?

Note to Merc staff: If I'm being replaced by dogs taped together, please make it anything but pugs. That's all.

I imagine that if hemorrhoids could communicate by text, it would be in the form of comments from Graham.
