Leave it to morally blind leftists to give credence to an logically bankrupt philosophy.

Later today, I’m going to sentence a zucchini to death by food processor and deep fry a very naughty eggplant. Stay outta my way, I’m pure EVIL!

Hey...I give them credit for being consistent, at least. The animal rights crowd has never acknowledged that their logic must ultimately lead to this.

**FREEPER KITCHEN PING**
I kept a notebook of 15 minute writing compost a few years back. I don’t know how it got thrown out, but I am still upset about. One of my short essays questioned, “If potatoes have eyes and corn has ears, then what will vegetarians eat?” Especially since you can hear the potato screaming when you put it in the microwave. It sounds like a bunny when it screams in terror.

Busybody politicians with too much time on their hands. This makes it looks like they're Doing Something, instead of tackling hard issues.
In a way, I like this. I've always wondered how militant vegans have decided it's bad to kill an animal, but it's okay to mercilessly butcher an innocent plant. Out there, minding its own business, waving in the breeze, and suddenly some chlorophyll-thirsty sadistic vegan rips it out of the ground.
How dare they.

Well, I think this is a good time to invest in swiss chard futures. If this spreads, Brussels sprouts might be next. I’m going to dump my Vienna Sausage futures, however.

About the only thing left to eat w/out being labeled "immoral" will be dirt.
Personally, I'm off to KILL some plants known as weeds. (Sure hope I didn't hurt their feelings calling them "weeds"...LOL)
