[Snip] And around here anyways, rabbit isn’t a very popular meat. You don’t see it in supermarkets, unless its own special offer. I’d say the only people who eat it regularly are people who hunt it and eat it themselves. You even have to order it in specially at the butcher’s because they don’t regularly stock it. I’d say it’s because of the cute connotations rabbit have that and it’s cheap meat when you can get it, so some people might not want it- despite the fact it does taste good.

What are you saying?

No what you think Zig, what I think you’re thinking of, does not look cute at all- I think you’d be hard-pressed (stop it! stop it now!) to find somebody who did find it cute. 

That and the fact that you didn’t highlight ‘meat’ in that sentence saddens me.

 

And I was talking about rabbits of course, lovely fluffy rabbits with flopsy ears and twitchy noses AND NOT ANYTHING ELSE THAT HAS RABBIT IN ITS NAME BUT IS NOT AN ACTUAL RABBIT!

You may have misinterpreted my meaning ASJr. My point was; if people don’t eat rabbits because they are cute, but do eat cows, what does that say about the cow?

>.>

 

Rabbits are always portrayed as funny, adorable whatever- see Bugs Bunny, Roger Rabbit etc. You can keep rabbits in a house/apartment as a pet.

Cows don’t have anything similar to that in mainstream media- unless you’re counting Clarabella…but who actually likes Clarabella? And the majority of people don’t and can’t keep cows as pets, due to the amount of feed they eat and just the general expense of them.

 

It’s like people who are disgusted when other people eat dogs.

Dogs are a source of meat just like cows, chickens, snakes, platypuses and horse. We just don’t want to associate our cute little Sparky as being like some cow growing up on a farm (or a feeding lot depending on which country you live in), despite the fact that when they’re on our plates they’re pretty much the same thing. We choose to think cows are ok to eat when they are just as cute as dogs (I use to feed my neighbour’s cows lettuce) albeit a bit more dangerous. We should be able to eat all meat including dog, cat, hamster without judgement or eat no meat at all!

 

Anyhoo that was a weird disjointed rant.

 

I like turtles.

^^ I like that notion. If you don’t like the idea of eating rabbits because you think they’re ‘cute’ but have no qualms about chowing down on a hamburger, you’re kind of self-contradictory– cuteness is subjective and entirely fantastic anyway. Eating cows with such persistence doesn’t offer much resistance to this Cockamamie Business. Speaking for myself– as a shameless omnivore– if you offered me a rabbit stew, I’d eat it, because according to people who know ’tis delicious. 

If you really don’t like the idea of eating cute little animals (or cute big animals for that matter) then go veg, for chrissakes! a-hard-days-night-paul-11

It’s too hot to practice ukulele, I think I’ll listen to weird music and play Civ 5 again.

My son is playing that at the moment. His laptop blew up in the heat so he stole my PC and I’m on the android all-in-one now.

On the other side of the globe, it’s too cold to practise ‘Starlight’– so I’m fritterandwastethehoursinanoffhandway on here, because having my hands on a laptop keeps ’em warm. a-hard-days-night-george-9 

This one is a new attempt by android supporters to break into the PC market, so it’s not my phone or a tablet.

It has a keyboard and mouse and a very nice 21 inch HD touch-screen. Some websites are clever enough to give me their PC version – some fail and think it’s a phone and give me a tiny screen.

I’m watching TV right now, and this commercial keeps coming on every single commercial break. I can’t stop laughing at how completely ridiculous it is.

I’ve seen giant teddies like that at the monstrosity widely known as Costco around Christmastime. They ain’t cheap either, you could buy a good uke with that a-hard-days-night-george-10 and I sometimes wonder, ‘Who the heck buys things like this?!’

[In relation to ASJ’s post above, which im not quoting, where she asks “Who loves Clarabella” in regards to rabbits being deemed so cute whilst cows are not]

I love ‘Clarabella’.

Maybe I’m just being pedantic but the big reason why rabbits aren’t mass-eaten isn’t so much that they’re cute, its that they’re a terrible source of nutrition. There’s next to no fat and no carbohydrate, so you can literally starve to death by just eating rabbits. Cows on the other hand at least are a source of fat that you can burn for energy in lieu of carbohydrate.

So get in the fecking truck, moo. That goes for you too piggy. And you goats. And you crocodiles and kangaroos.

edit: oh and I think there might be something poisonous about parts of the rabbit too, like dogs. People went raving mad after being forced to eat huskies on Arctic/Antarctic expeditions, I think it was an excess of Vitamin A.

I'm like Necko only I'm a bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin and also everyone. Or is everyone me? Now I'm a confused bassist ukulele guitar synthesizer kazoo penguin everyone who is definitely not @Joe.  This has been true for 2016 & 2017 Sig-Badge.png but I may have to get more specific in the future.

Same thing goes for people who don’t wear fur but wear leather. Ammmmm, they’re both the skin/fur of animals and both industries are as cruel as the other. Don’t say “you wouldn’t’ wear fur”, if you wear leather because one is just as bad as the other >.>

There is no need to wear fur and leather these days what with all the great synthetic fabrics we have
