I love animals - when they're dead and covered in BBQ sauce

[HEyHEY]

MMMMMM :9

[MrCoffee]

1. ever had Koala Nuggets? mmm mmm good!

[matcom]

2. there are a couple of tasty looking ones in your sig

FIRE UP THE BBQ :bounce:

[HEyHEY]

5. Polar bear cubs are like crabs too - they gotta be cooked live

[RebelOne]

3. I think you are trying to raise the ire of us vegetarians.

Prepare to be flamed.

[johnnie]

4. You mean you will put BBQ sauce on roadkill..

..and then eat it? You're gross dude. At least take the skin off.

[HEyHEY]

6. Mmm, sun-dried possum

[johnnie]

8. Tastes like chicken

Well chicken jerky

[XNASA]

7. You're insane.

BBQ sauce is made of mostly corn syrup. Only an idiot would slather that stuff on tasty meats.

I'm partial to rubs myself.

[SacredCow]

16. Oh, definitely.....

Even worse when they slather it on BEFORE and/or while grilling it and it makes that nice, crunchy, sweet, charcoal-like coating.... :puke:

[evirus]

9. "dolphins are intelligent and friendly!"

"intelligent and friendly on rye bread with some manonase"

[RebelOne]

10. The mammal dolphin is intelligent and friendly.

The fish dolphin is good on rye bread with mayonnaise. Two different critters.

[Shine]

11. LOL!

Reminds me of a big billboard ad for a restaurant, seen in Canada:

"There's plenty of room for all God's creatures...right next to the mashed potatoes."

[Dangerously Amused]

12. I love militant meat-eaters...

... when their quality of life goes down the crapper then they sit and wonder why and I can laugh at their pain and willful ignorance.

[Swede]

13. With barbecue sauce or a nice dry rub?

:shrug:

[Blue-Jay]

14. "militant meat-eaters"? That's hilarious!

I like pepperoni on my pizza. Am I some kind of militant?

[Dangerously Amused]

19. No.

By militant I mean people who make it a point to harass vegetarians, like say things they know are certain to offend just to be obnoxious and rude. They know they can get away with it though because unlike other minority classes, vegetarianism transcends racial, religious, gender, economic and other more traditional class characteristics.

I'm a vegetarian, but I don't like militant vegetarians, either. I don't give people shit about their eating habits unless they start disparaging mine.

[HEyHEY]

22. That's okay, I have a problem with people who are militant

About not being able to take a joke.

[Dangerously Amused]

28. What? Your post was funny but my reply was not?

[HEyHEY]

34. Well

If you were joking, that's fine... but it certainly doesn't seem like it.

[Dangerously Amused]

43. Well

...I was not being literal, I don't laugh at people's pain. But you can't post something like the OP and expect those it might offend to presume it is a joke.

[bicentennial_baby]

23. Well, I have a problem with people

who insist on referring to eggs as "chicken menstruation" and milk as "tit snot" and cheese as "fermented mucus"...As a non-veg, I'd like to see the same respect here in the Lounge that I give to the veg and vegan people...doesn't happen though :shrug:

[Guava Jelly]

24. here! here!

:toast:
they will get my chedder when they pull it from my bloated obese heartclutching hands
:rofl:

[flvegan]

25. Might be a good idea

to take it up with them at the time, methinks.

I'd like the same respect that I give the meat eaters. Seems that there's somewhat of on uneven standoff here.

[Guava Jelly]

32. Cant we all just get a long :o)

I love everybody.
But I also love cheese and eggs.
I think certain vegans are lacto ovo if i remember correctly
Hey I respect vegans..It takes a lot to believe in a cause so much that you actually change your life for it.
It's noble and should be commended

[LeftyMom]

33. Just to clear something up

(nicely, I promise)

Vegans are never ovo lacto.

Vegetarians can be ovo-lacto, but vegans are a different vegetarian subset who do not consume or use any animal tissues, including meat, milk, eggs, leather, etc.

:)

[Guava Jelly]

37. As one who seeks knowledge Thank you for the clarification

:)
I wont make that mistake again.
I wasn't trying to ruffle any feathers.
And this thread is a joke but kind of insensitive..I would never of went that route with it.
:)

[LeftyMom]

39. Oh I know you didn't mean anything by it,

I just wanted to make sure we were all on the same page.

:hug:

Okay, enough getting along, everybody get back to sniping at eachother now. ;)

[Guava Jelly]

41. I don't think i like your avatar!!!

I don't believe you are made of sugar and spice and everthing nice :rofl:

[LeftyMom]

42. Buttercup is the mean one.

:evilgrin:

[flvegan]

38. We all? Apparently not on some issues.

However, nobody should have issue or not be able to get along with you. Well stated.

[bicentennial_baby]

45. You're correct

I should...I really love y'all, and truly respect what you do. And as far as animal rescue and stuff, I'm with you 100%. Always. I'm on your side, even if I can't or don't live in the same manner. :)

:pals:

[Dangerously Amused]

27. Maybe some people do that, but I don't.

When my position is attacked, either directly or indirectly, I will defend it. When my opinion is requested, I will give it. I will usually meet the same level of civility or aggression as my opponent. And I will make every effort to back my arguments up with cited facts. But I don't ever start veg/meat flame wars.

[flvegan]

40. Ever notice how

oftentimes the same bunch of assholes do shit just to stir things up?

Not here, but like, you know, other places. It's like they do it JUST to be an asshole.

[LeftyMom]

31. Since that first one was me,

I guess I should explain that I just want people to connect those tissues with thier reality. A dozen tidy eggs in a tray looks like a very neat thing, and most people never really connect that with the generally infertile reproductive tissue expelled with the cloaca of a hen, which is exactly what it is. Not to disparage eggs (or eaters of chicken eggs,) just to point out what they're for.

Likewise, as somebody who has lactated and fed a baby, I'd never refer to milk as "tit snot." Milk is milk. Mammals need it. It's just the idea that humans need or ought to have any milk other than human milk that I find somewhat perverse.

[bicentennial_baby]

44. I completely understand what you're saying

I have the utmost respect and honor for the animals that I consume, as well as their products like milk and eggs and cheese. I *know* what I'm doing, consciously. Sniffa and I discussed this recently, and I really had to impress upon him the need for respect and awareness when we consume these creatures. I'm not at a place in my life yet where I can eschew it completely, but I can at least remain conscious of the sacrifice and the reality of it...at least I try to, every day. I hope you can hear where I'm coming from too :hug:

You *know* I love you so :loveya:

[flvegan]

20. But...but...but...

they're funny (in a pseudo lacking-intelligence, pigtail pulling kind of way).

Funny how some of those folks share SO many things with Ted Nugent. The Nuge posters are so fucking cool, I just can't stand it.

[HEyHEY]

26. Ted Nugent? Domo Aragoto Mr. Bravado

[flvegan]

36. You're going to have to spell it out.

[HEyHEY]

21. Meh.... I eat meat, and life's going pretty darn well.

[Swede]

15. You so bad.

[SOteric]

17. Okay, so, - ~You're~ not going to be considered

to take over Steve Irwin's role on Animal Planet.

[ghostsofgiants]

18. Dammit, now I'm hungry.

[ironflange]

29. Ever try Bald Eagle? Tastes a lot like Whooping Crane.

Yeah, yeah, old joke.

[bigwillq]

30. Now I want some country ribs.

:(

[Floogeldy]

35. The difference between you and me is . . .

. . . . I love them before they are dead, too.

;)
