Poll: If someone offered you $3 million, but the catch is you have to kill your dog,

I blame vegetarians.

 

I blame the meat eaters.

[johan]

I blame all my exes.

[the_alchemyst]

Okay, so being a vegetarian makes you like Hitler?

 

Ok.

Those are statements made by kids who feel oppressed by adults and out of place, like teenagers all do. Kids often don't like people much. But everyone likes a fluffy friendly puppy. In other words they are just speaking from convenient surface emotions. They have no idea what they'd do if they were actually in a position to have to make the hypothetical choice. I think they'd do the right thing, regardless of what they claim.

 

I agree with you. I used to think this way when I was a teenager because animals love you no matter what and people hurt you. I can understand the rationale, but I hope you're right that kids would rise above it.

 

And then think of that guy a couple of weeks ago who jumped onto the subway tracks to save a stranger while his two young daughters looked on. It was heroic, but at the same time, an iffy choice. If he had died his daughters would have seen him pulverized and would grow up without a dad. He lucked out and everyone was saved. Sometimes it comes down to your gut. But if he'd done it for a dog, and he were my husband, I think I would be a little pissed off even if it turned out OK.

You need to eat more vegetables. When was the last time you had a root?

[Touche]

Okay, so being a vegetarian makes you like Hitler?

 

Ok.

 

Wow, it took you all this time to finally get that? You must be nutritionally deficient or something.

[Touche]

I blame all my exes.

 

Are they down in Texas?

 

(They eat a lot of meat down there you know.)

[the_alchemyst]

Don't make assumptions, Touche.

 

I just got a chance to come back a read the thread. Homework. I hate online classes sometimes.

 

Anyway, I just read the references you posted and all the other posts, and I can't believe the faulty association some of you are using. It's ridiculous.

 

Touche, please make sure you cook your meat. Seriously.

[magichands]

Life changes dramatically when you take on responsibilities. I agree, it's not his life to risk... any more.

Well then I may as well let you shoot me. I like my meat rare and bloody...Mmmm Mmmm!

[magichands]

Generally it's quite upsetting if you use your teeth.

[the_alchemyst]

Well then I may as well let you shoot me.

 

I never asked for your permission, Touche dearest.

 

I like my meat rare and bloody...Mmmm Mmmm!

 

That's disgusting, yet typical . . .

 

It's strange that, by the way your wrote your post, you'd think you'd be able to eat your dead, rare, and bloody self after dying, though.

 

Then again, after reading your previous association, I guess it makes sense.

Wow, interesting stuff. Does a person hallucinate while on weed?

 

Actually though, if I could I'd eat myself. I think I'd be very tasty and sweet.

[the_alchemyst]

Sometimes. And that has to do with what exactly?

 

Are you all right, Touche? You are making all sorts of strange assumptions and associations tonight.

 

Maybe you should get some rest. It's late, you know.

[burning 4 revenge]

when are you two getting a room?

[magichands]

when are you two getting a room?

Are you into hot lesbian action?

[Touche]

Are you into hot lesbian action?

 

I could be but I'd be too afraid she'd shoot me if I didn't do things right.

[Storyrider]

Flesh eating lesbian action with weapons? I would watch as long as it was all pretend. Ketchup for blood and all that.

I don't want to speak for Alch but I think she would want the real deal not a simulation. Maybe if I stick some lettuce leaves all over my body she'll be nice to me and find my flesh more palatable.

I don't do girls. Wait--that wasn't your suggestion. Of course it had to be magichands.

 

No, dude.

 

And you're right, Touche: I only like the real deal. And besides, when it comes to that, I don't play nice.

Yeah, I kind of had a feeling you wouldn't play nice.

[Pink Amulet]

Haha- well this has taken an interesting turn!

[dropdeadlegs]

True. Still, my gut tells me yes,

 

Could it be my brother-in -laws dog? He's doing a bad job of caring for him and it might end his suffering. The dog has tested positive for heartworms and is barely fed. He's not really my BIL, just the B of my LTR.

[dropdeadlegs]

its well documented that he loved animals and brusselsprouts almost as much as he hated slavs and jews

I love :love:Brussel Sprouts.

 

And the _alchemyst.

[bluetuesday]

(and those vegan people are the worst for putting animals above people..ugh.)

 

wow touche. this is a new low. you're actually claiming the moral highground on this issue at the same time as admitting you'd kill people you didn't like? fascinating.

 

i value human life much more highly than i value animal life. that's part of the reason i'm a vegan, because it's of clear benefit to other humans as well as to animals and the planet. doh!
