Current mood:*sporfle!*

I bring you more knitting wank -- but this time with PETA!

Apparantly, Australian sheep have horrible things done to them. Knitters are urged to boycott all merino, because OMG TEH PUR SHEEP!

It is pointed out that bad things happen with quite a few other wool and non-wool related stuff out there.

There's also a highly amusing summary of just how teh poor sheep make it across the ocean.

Not very wanky, most of the com members are doing lots of mocking, but a light snack after a hard day's work.

Months at a time? Aren't they exaggerating? Wouldn't the sheep die in a week or so without water?

If they're mammals, yeah.

Maybe in Australia they have cockroach x sheep hybrids. In which case, I wanna go see that.

No. Though I mostly think it's because no one listens to them no matter how sane they are, so slowly they just start saying more and more crazy stuff, hoping someone will notice.

I know that a good amount of PeTA members are sane, but the loud ones are batshit crazy.

oui

currently discussing that about Christians, actually. *sniffles* Please don't hate me for my religion, even if it's wankier than yours...

Not in the least. I have no beef with Christianity per se; it's the self-righteous reactionary fucknuts who justify their actions in Christ's name that get my goat.

After observation of the recent Hillel/Menorah Ministries wank on my campus, I've decided that nothing is wankier than Judaism. We may not have had the Crusades, but we invented Streisand tickets and have the highest mother-issues-per-capita rate.

That, and the phenomenon of using any occasion to eat (even a bris), makes us a true OMGWTFBBQ.

I find the phenomenon of using any occasion to eat quite endearing. It's why I say my mother and grandmother were really Jewish mothers, and just didn't know it.

I think the non-batshit insane ones go under the heading of 'animal welfare' instead.

http://altweb.jhsph.edu/ - AltWeb, the non-insane anti-animal testing one, although they're more pro-alternative methods.

Also - teh wank? - BALEETED. Anybody got a cap?

Every time I see things like it makes me want to go start my own tiny country so and produce EVERYTHING I need there, thus allowing me to be completely free of corporate shit like this.

PeTA - such a reliable source! If it weren't for them, I would still be getting osteoperosis for drinking milk!

When I was your age, the sheep had to walk to the Middle East. On the RAZORBLADE ROAD.

Insects are members of the Animal kingdom too. They deserve people for the ethical treatment of them. I can't believe Oakenking can be so open about treating them as live stock when they should be treated as friends.

So now PETA is really PETM, huh?


Bwahahahahahah! Bitch, are you for real?! I swear, this has to be a joke. I will pee myself laughing if that's a serious remark.

Now I'm thinking of that recent episode of South Park in which the school was forced to rename the team because PETA made a stink.

Giant Douche + Turd Sandwich + PETA=OT3!!11!
