"KellyH" wrote in message ... "Phil P." wrote in message nk.net... May be if we didn't use sugar-coated words and descriptions and the used the proper words, they wouldn't be so easy to swallow and might sicken enough people and lawmakers to do something about it! Phil Reminds me of the South Park ep where they wanted to change the name of veal to "dead baby cow". I like calling pork "pig." Just a friendly reminder of what we are really eating. Pigs are sweet and intelligent. |

Phil Reminds me of the South Park ep where they wanted to change the name of veal to "dead baby cow". Don't forget chicken. It should be 'dead baby chicken', becausae chickens are slaughtered at 12 weeks old --chickens 'normally' live 7 years. And don't forget beef! Cows are slaughtered at 16-22 months of age, and they could live to be 25! So I guess it's 'dead baby cow with pale meat' and 'dead baby cow with red meat'. Lamb is, well, lambs, so 'dead baby sheep', and pigs go under the knife at one year and they could live to 25, so it's 'dead baby pig'. We have a penchant for eating babies, it seems.

"sleeping around" is a perfect example of some of the the euphemisms that are used for the act of intercourse. educating our children about intercourse and using the proper terminology, and its consequences SHOULD be a parents job, but there are many, many, parents out there who do not! i don't know one person who got pregnant by "sleeping"..................... rosie (this is not directed just at L ) Well, it shouldn't be directed at me at all- I put it in quotations because that's the terminology the person I replied to used.

rec.pets.cats.health+behav et): You're not the first basically nice person I've seen Usenet turn into an asshole. I guess I should have just started out that way. My only reason for being on this group was to find help for my cat. After that, it was to learn how to keep it from happening again. Period. Not to play nicey nice, and I don't fake it here, or anywhere. Gawd, sound familiar? If someone else is acting like an ass I'm not going to ignore it just because some of you seem to like the other assholes. Especially when my name gets brought up time and time again just for some sickos amusement. Plus, life-changing events have a way of changing you. Truth. -- Cheryl |

Is it the "there's so many cats at shelters wanting a home" attitude that I've seen here quite frequently? I have worked in cat rescue and shelters for over 15 years. I have cleaned up dead piles of healthy cats. I have seen darling kittens go down for absolutely no reason at all other than no one to care for them. See Phil's response - I'm sure he covered the rest. -L. |
