Popular Post lapal_fan Posted July 21, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 21, 2021 I don't eat humans anymore because Jeff Bezos makes some of them suffer and when I watch the tele and see their sad faces in those warehouses, not able to go for a piss and are paid only enough to buy sellotape to tape the boxes up, which is bought from Amazon, then I feel sad. And he is a space man now because of those sad people 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ears went back, which I took to mean that he doesn't like science fiction and everytime I say Bezos his tail stops wagging. Edit ... Ah, we just had another chat, he hopes Bezos will be the first man to land on the sun. Edited July 21, 2021 by Phil Silvers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One James Milner, There's only one Olof Mellberg" etc etc. Yeah, but the Pablo Angel version was kind of ironic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fruitvilla Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I love lamb ... medium rare. But I insist that the lamb's biological components are grown from close to 100 % "vegetable" matter. I suppose with the exception of hydrogen and possibly lithium in my food, I eat nothing but stardust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see any distinction between animals and humans, physiologically speaking. We're all made of the same stuff but we've got the biggest brains and have managed to become top of the food chain and planet wreckers due to being able to make and use tools. So mammals such as sheep, pigs, dogs and cows are the same as us but have lower intelligence and haven't evolved thumbs so can't easily make and use tools. Therefore, if killing a cow which has a human comparable mental age of about 4 years old and feels fear, emotion, pain, etc is OK, why is it that OK but killing a human is very much murder? Why do people bond so much with dogs while tucking into their beefburger? Why do people go so mad about puppy farms while drinking milk from cow farms where the exact same things and worse happen? I know, it's always happened and it's always how we've done it etc but there's huge amounts of double standards everywhere. I ate meat for 40 years so I was also involved in this but I've never tried to find weak excuses to justify it and always accepted I was a hypocrite. One of the world’s most respected living moral philosophers agrees with you. I also see the point and can’t convincingly counter it, but largely choose to ignore it. I know it’s wrong of me to do so, and admire your stance. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with the lack of protein and vitamins the younger generation will die out early and animals can reclaim the planet and play out animal farm to their hearts content 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StefanAVFC Posted August 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 13, 2021 (edited) I don't know why anyone would stand and piss at anything other than a urinal, other than for masculinity reasons. It's objectively more comfortable to sit. Edited August 13, 2021 by StefanAVFC 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do some sadistic bastards install toilets with seats that will not stay up? So that you either have to sit down, or stand sideways on and prop the seat up with one knee. Or, worse still, the ones that just barely stay up, finely balanced on a knife edge, until a mouse coughs in Patagonia and it comes crashing down through your stream of piss, scattering it in all directions. Designed by women, I can only assume. Edited August 13, 2021 by mjmooney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, with your back to the wall. Bend forward 45 degrees and push El Zenito backwards between the legs then squeeze your knees together for stabilisation. Use your free hands to high ten all the other dudes. 2 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
