So Beautiful:

"Larch is one of the few conifers that loses its foliage each year. The soft, bright green needles emerge in spring. Needles turn a spectacular bright golden yellow in late autumn. Cones are small and light brown. Larch is pyramidal when young, becoming more irregular and wider with age. Branches arise horizontally from the trunk."

It brings tears to my eyes, you know...

Did you know that trees are responsible for more forest fires than anything else?

Did you know that they used to hang people from branches of trees during linchings in the old west era?...;)

Completely different? Are you out of your mind???
We get just as KF oriented stuff dwelling around all the time!

AKA tamarack, Larix laricina, : Larix decidua, etc.
wow, a tree thread, hmm, interesting.

I had to take dendrology in college, it was cool, we got to go hiking for every lab. By the end of the class we needed to be able to identify 127 trees by full site, and like 45 by there twigs alone. Forget about the fruit quizes.

I guess most of the Python fans are practicing how not to be seen.

I'll tell you what. You can eat 'er now, and if you feel badly about it later, I'll dig an 'ole and you can throw up innit.

edit, after checking mp script site

Look, we'll eat your mum. Then, if you feel a bit guilty about it afterwards, we can dig a grave and you can throw up into it.

not bad, considering I probably haven't seen the sketch in a decade
