Re: Peta has a game for you!

So as far as warning people about the dangers of things, whats the big deal?

The ad I was referring to doesn't warn kids about tanning, it accuses anyone who ever tans of being an idiot and that they need to "get a life" or lose it. Wish I could find a video of it.

Re: Peta has a game for you!

PETA wants to change the name of fish to sea kittens since "fish" is both a verb and a noun. You can go fish, its an action consisting of putting a hook in fish's mouth to capture the fish. Its also an action in a card game.

Thing is, "Sea-kittening" would then become the verb replacing "fishing." People would be eating Filet-of-Sea Kitten. We would "Go Sea Kitten" if we went fishing or were playing cards. We would have Sea Kitten and Chips. We would sea kitten for compliments and have sea kitten bowls.

You think just throwing the word "kitten" in there is gonna keep me from wanting to eat it? I kill bunnies in FFXI. They're not even cute bunnies, but being called a bunny does not stop me. I will kill it even if it evokes a cute image in my head. Video games desensitized me to cute. Blame Mario.

I'd only feel bad if they helped me in some way. This is why people see killing pixies as mean. Or hell, deer. Bambi did a lot for deer. Disney forever made people who hunt them look bad. It wasn't just killing a deer, that hunter killed a mother. And somehow that virally got into our heads.

I hear deer meat is good eating, Bambi's Mom probably didn't go to waste.

Re: Peta has a game for you!

I made Filet Mignons tonight and they were SOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD! I like my meat very rare. You know how firm a steak is when its well done? Well imagine a steak that still jiggles like a bowl of jello. Ya.....nice and rare.....you can almost hear it moo when you poke it. Oh wait...I put a steak picture up a while back...let me see if I can find it....

EDIT: Oh ya this was when my husband cooked them and made them a bit too well done....

Say hi to your friends E. coli and salmonella. I have an uncle who eats steak so rare, I'm pretty sure it would scientifically constitute as still living. Shit, I don't understand why he even pays to have it cooked. Why not just buy the whole cow and dig in like a coyote?

I like my meats just as much as the next guy, but I prefer mine cooked thank you.

You get more nutrients from a rare steak than a well done one. As far as bacteria, I do not eat steaks at restuarants. You can not trust anyplace but your own kitchen. I've been cooking my steaks like this for MANY years now and I've never gotten sick once.

Re: Peta has a game for you!

Cooked please, thx.

Re: Peta has a game for you!

That's a little too rare for me, Mom. But I do enjoy medium rare, I had teriyaki BBQ yesterday for dinner and made sure it was juicy, like our love.

That's not trying to oppose your will on anyone, that's just speaking the truth. Tanning is for 'tards.

I hear deer meat is good eating

It's not bad, but it's not very good.


Mom, that's disgusting. It's really not even cooked on the inside.

No, tanning to the point of Oompa Loompaism is retarded. Tanning beds aren't exactly the best things ever, but using scare tactics and propaganda to get people to agree with your point is laaame. Using a tanning bed in moderation is no more dangerous than chilling at the beach all day without sunscreen.

Re: Peta has a game for you!

Deer jerky is fantastic.
I thought most vegetarians still ate fish anyway because it was good for you? Not like calling them sea-kittens will magically get me to stop fly fishing. Fresh trout is about as good as it gets.
Can't see the pick, mom, but i'm guessing that its slightly seared on the outside and raw as hell on the inside. Thats probably a little much for me, usually go medium rare. Medium rare tends to vary a lot depending on where you go.

Anyone who calls themselves a vegetarian and eats fish is an idiot. It has nothing to do with how good it is or isn't, but whether it's meat. Somehow, there are people out there who don't realize that fish are made of meat. It's sort of like calling yourself pro-life, while taking Plan B.

...don't forget the butter!

You do realize how dangerous it is to be at the beach all day without sunscreen right? Both of those are just as bad as smoking, you are gambling with your life and they both make you look like hell too.

Nope. A real vegetarian doesn't eat anything that was formerly an animal. Milk and eggs are ok though.

EDIT:

THIS. Ugh. It's one of my biggest pet peeves in real life.
"So you really don't eat any meat?"
"No."
"What about fish?"
"...No."
"So no chicken either?"
"..."

I get the first question all the time and it's never bothered me at all. In fact, I usually enjoy answering that because often the person asking has such a hard time imagining a life without meat that their reaction is amusing. The other two questions are stupid though, if I'm telling you I don't eat any meat at all, ever. And yes I have been "no chicken either?" I really don't know what's up with that.
