Pirates are way cooler than ninjas

It's a freaking hoax that being a vegetarian is healthy.

This is one of the cases were common sense / intuition fails:
if you don't eat vegetables, you'll be sick -> vegetables are healthy -> if you eat only vegetables you'll be super-healthy
But in reality, if you don't eat vegetables and meat and hundreds of other thingies you'll be fucked.

Counterintuitive truths aren't uncommon:
Birthday paradox
Monty Hall problem
Boy or girl
Benford's law
Three cards problem

 

Yes, I know what you're saying. But most of the vegetarians I know does it in protest to the bad treatment animals gets when they go to the butcherhouse.

In some cases, they're right.

 

Oooh, so cannibals capturing and eating me is actually a good thing if they treat me nice meanwhile?

(BTW, animals are really not to be pets or shown in zoos. They're for eating, clothing and other industrial uses)

(And if somebody sacrificies himself to "save" some unknown, worthless animal, then he is clearly a lunatic)

 

I know I wouldn't care if someone blew my brains out for no reason if they were going to eat me. But I would definently not like being beaten and stuffed into some tiny transports for years before finally having parts of me removed until I die from the pains.

 

Or afraid of Frigo?


Speaking of which! Frigo, how would you feel about being hung upside-down with an old rope tied around your feet, when being lifted from a cattle tanker? Not a great thought now, is it? Just think of the rope, slowly cutting it's way into your flesh, tearing it from your bones.

Or being thrown into a bus filled with other people to the breaking limit, only to find out that there is no ventilation, and that you're going 100 miles?

 

Exactly.

You know, I'm with the vegs on these points, but it doesn't keep me from eating meat. I can't stop eating meat, because I'm to bloody fond of it.

 

It might change if we go to Norway and bring home Skittles. Just make sure your friends import the European version:

 

I'm not sure why I detest cruelty to animals. I almost promote violence against other humans.
However, I love meat. I like all types of meat, unless it comes from a crustacean, an arachinid, or an insect.
Animals have natural weapons, and are in many cases, proportionally stronger than we are. But they're always naked. Maybe I pity naked things.
I know I wouldn't let someone run around a nudist colony to harvest the bare buttocks of some poor naked fool. As soon as he puts his pants back on, though...open fire.

 

There's a good definition of "Pain in the Ass"! :lol:

 

Why yes, yes it is.

 

Normally I would say Pirates are definately way cooler than Ninja ... though this makes it hard to defend.



Though at the same time, Ninja come from a society that has trouble making masculine video game characters. They also consider flower arranging, and interior design as martial arts.

" I'm turning japanese, I think I'm turning japanese ... I really think so. " was actually The Vapors attempt to come out of the closet.

 

If you drop the lobster into the already boiling water, it dies instantly. No pain. Or... Maybe a fraction of a second of pain, but still.

 

It does sound horrible. Almost as bad as the scream a rabbit makes when you miss its vitals.
And, to be quite honest, after you've slit a pig's throat, they can let out the most hellish noise you may ever hear.
