According to yesterday's poll, most of my flist would use massive quantities of butter for sex, science, and embezzlement. Sounds about right.

The write in answers were:
 haruslex  -- EXTRACT THE FAT AND TURN IT INTO EXPLOSIVES ALA FIGHT CLUB
jantalaimon  -- Brando it. Duh! >3
zempasuchil  -- The Soviet Bloc stole it.

When brainstorming ideas for answers to yesterday's poll, I ended up here.  Every year, the Minnesota Dairy Industry holds a beauty contest called Princess Kay of the Milky Way-the winner gets to a) go around Minnesota and talk about their love of the dairy industry, and b)a life sized butter sculpture bust of themselves, which is displayed at the state fair.

Just in case you were wondering, the results are REALLY CREEPY.  Also, they all look the same, since they're beauty contestants.  Here's an example.

So of course, after a while, you have to wonder-what the hell do you do with a 90 pound block of butter version of you?

The answers, for those of you too lazy to click on the link, are:

1) Christmas baking
2) Large cookouts, where people fight over your nose
3) Displayed at their wedding.  ( I DON'T KNOW WHY? WHAT?)
4) They just, you know, keep it in their freezer.  For posterity.  And to freak out poor unsuspecting houseguests.

Nobody admitted any sort of Picture of Dorian Gray-style hijinks, but nobody's done an in-depth investigation, either.

Speaking of weird-ass Americana-Supernatural!
