"Our relationship with animals and food in this era of plenty is riven with hypocrisy. There are only two intellectually coherent positions on meat — extreme veganism or enthusiastic carnivorism."

Count me enthusiastic.

If you shower, you’re a mass murderer.

Millions of bacteria die each morning in your drain.

If you believe bacteria aren’t living creatures deserving of the same protection as a fish, then you admit you’re a SIZE-IST!

non-indigenous

Translated: No season ending date and No Bag Limit. Exterminating the critter = restoring the natural state. Unfortunately the non-indigenous critters around here tend not to be particularly delicious. Anyone know a good way to prepare Asian carp?

I'm looking forward to trying Whale Sushi.

Some restaurant in Los Angeles is apparently serving it but it's kinda hush hush...

Y’know, I tried a vegan diet for a while, but I just couldn’t do it. Vegans don’t taste very good; most of them are pretty bitter.

If you prick a rat, does it not bleed?

Use enough Warfarin and pricking is optional.

I’ll eat meat, but only from animals that don’t make me go aah.

I guess it goes without saying that I don't need to waste my time sending him my recipe for "kitten parmesan"........

I remember seeing a show filmed in Louisiana, where this guy's job was sitting in a chair in the back of a pickup truck as it drove along a canal, and he would just keep shooting nutria (big rodents) about every five seconds.

My two thoughts were - why doesn't PETA scream bloody murder about this? how do I get such a cool job?
