Does it take its pancakes with molasses?

Neato. Interesting and also a cute little beastie. I hear that it prefers pancakes topped with 'if you're not interested, why go to the effort of posting?' sauce. It's got sharp little teeth, and it likes to bite people who don't know how to use apostrophes.

I don't know which I hate more; the deer or the people that want to eat it.

Ok, ok. I LIKED the deer and the FPP. My bad, I was just pining for the days of Oolong, I suppose.

I will quibble with the its/it's though...

Nothing about DeepFriedTwinkies' post indicates that he or she can't use apostrophes; in fact, by knowing that possessive "its" doesn't have one, he or she is arguably ahead of the game.

That deer is adorable. I bet they don't survive well in the wild—so bright.

What a sweet widdle pookums! Makes me a little sad that so many of the posters on the thread can only think of eating him, though.

Albino deer, the other white meat?

pretty screwy forum, "AR15.com, the home of the black rifle" but you have to admit dolomite is pretty funny when he posts:

I'd dip that whole thing in an egg batter, dust it with Progresso Italian bread crumbs, fry the shit out of it, and serve it all up with a nice chianti.

reactionaries are always good for a laff.

It's always cute when people who have a hobby that consists of killing animals get all wobbly-kneed about one because it's different from the rest.

I'm so overcome with cuteness vibes I may projectile vomit in ecstacy!
Really the neatest, cutest, most warm and cuddly-wuddly widdle fing I've seen on Metafilter all millenium!

Well, that's 'cause it's too small to even make an appetizer!
He needs some time to fatten it up so he can appreciate it before he eviscerates it.

There has to be an Indian legend about a White Deer somewhere.

Reminds me of the artist Erick Swenson ....

with a hint of something slightly more sinister at work...

Dunno about Indians, but there's always James Thurber.

Look out when you're committing a taboo- That albino Stag is always watching, watching....

That Swenson work is beautiful, rawfishy.

I have seen an albino deer running through the woods and it was eerie. One wonders if Arawn will follow.

It's the Edgar Winter of the woods!

It's clearly an avatar of Satan.

I wonder if it's blind?

It's clearly an avatar of Satan.

I would think the "Black Prince" would be better represented by an animal with melanism, no?

He'll try to avoid whatever we all think, I'm sure.
