featherynscale: Schmendrick the magician from The Last Unicorn (Default)
Special [livejournal.com profile] triadruid and [livejournal.com profile] zylch birthday edition. (Happy birthday to them, etc!)

So here's a question which seems to be on everybody's mind (and by everybody, I mean me and a guy on mafiascum)... Sometimes (and when I say sometimes, I mean frequently), we refer to someone who is not just a little crazy as "batshit crazy". Why? Where does this phrase come from?

Again, nine or ten answers only, comments are screened. There will be no right answer to vote for here.

OK? Go.
