When confronted by a radical vegetarian, or animal rights freak, I just calmly and cooly explain that I eat meat not for nutrition, or because of my upbringing, or ignorance, or even because it tastes good.

I eat meat because I like to know that some living, sentient creature, had to suffer and die, and I LIKE that.

I have NEVER had someone continue to argue the point, after delivering that line. NEVER!!!

I have a friend at Grinnell, and he hangs out with a lot of vegetarians. He'll go out of his way to savour every bite of his hamburger, or say things like "oh man, just think, this cow was alive like, a week ago."

We actually converted one of our co-workers from vegetarian to meat eater, all thanks to Hooter's! He started out on celery and before it was over he was knockin' out wings faster than they could bring 'em. He paid the price though since his system wasn't used to meat consumption.

Anyone see the picture of the girl holding a sandwich and wearing a Burger King crown on her head. That is hilarious.

anyone know what this meat costs a pound? i could make chili for at least a year on that slab alone.

I also like the des moines register publishing a picture that has an acronym for a rather profane word on it. I will use another sayin for it: See You Next Tuesday.

I'm all for supporting vegetarians, but damn, it's a personal choice and should stay that way. The only reason those big production line farms that treat animals inhumanely is because consumers vote to keep them in business with their wallet. If you're so concerned about it, promote the positives and stop relying on shock value to get your point across.

[ISU BET]

you can't even use a buzzer at most of those places anymore because it is unethical to the animal. right, but cops using tasers on humans? let 'em at it!!!

Those pictures remind me of something. Anyone here ever hear of "long-pig?"

I find it amazing that PETA can never seem to get their point across without resorting to shock tactics done in the worst way possible. It just seems to turn people against them. Fine by me since I love eating all sorts of animals, but I find it almost sad that they are so inept as an organization. I had a friend who actually quit the organization be cause of their tactics and general reputation. I think this was around the time they were ambushing parents and children outside of McDonald's with photos of slaughtered cows. Damn thats classy.
