My favorite response was the one saying "Don't you have some bigger fish to fry?"

 

[runkpanole]

People eating tasty animals is ok?

 

[Bill From Tampa]

And those people sit around all day dreaming this stuff up.

 

[Gonolz]

That really gets my goat. They need to hold their horses. They are being pig-headed and should just let sleeping dogs lie. People can't just quit using animal idioms cold turkey.

 

[SoddyNole]

There are animals and then there is food. I believe in the ethical treatment of animals until it is time to become food. When we cross that line you die and I eat.

Killed five birds with one stone there.
Nicely done.

I love the juxtaposition of this thread and the best fried chicken in every state thread.

More than one way to skin a cat

Got a thread and 7 people responding. Think they did their job. It’s all about social media and click bait that gets the momentum rolling. Hell, if you troll enough you could win an elec[radio edit].

That dog wont hunt here in the panhandle.

 

[billanole]

It’s all about the herd mentality. We got that inner critter thing that has to be fed.

 

[mwfudge]

Can we still say doggie style?

 

[DDennis73]

I think doggie style is offensive to other animals and confusing. If you were to ask a lioness if she likes doggie style is that interspecies sex? Is it cultural appropriation for a cat to do it doggie style? Maybe its demeaning to a lion to say he’s doing it doggie style when he identifies with lion style.

You can see where this all goes down a rabbit hole.

 

[AdNole]

If we keep this up PETA may have to eat a little crow.

Good point.

Every dog gets his day. What about the other animals.

 

[goldmom]

Well according to the Chicken Littles on the TC, we're going to have to pony up for a decent OC, so there is that.

 

[Random_John]

The country has gone to the birds. People are so batty now.

 

[runkpanole]

What am I going to do when I tie one on? The hair of the dog is a great thing.

 

[KitingHigh]

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut.

Latest news is that PETA and the NFL have suspended Jameis Winston again for yelling an offensive phrase about puppies:
