wpegg: Is shit vegan?
avatar
tinyE: Depends on who's shit it is. A Vegan's shit would stand to be Vegan shit while someone else's would not.

Hands down though wpegg, your query is by far the most interesting one brought up in this thread yet. :D
Hey, I thought the saying was "you are what you eat". Now that makes excrement a bit more questionable.

Kinda explains why people eat bushmeat then.

Well, I usually tend to eat food that comes from some type of sausage factory, where there is usually some federally allowed percentage of rat droppings.

No I meant bushmeat as in meat of animals like leopards and chimps.

Bushmeat (in the original meaning which may be: game you hunted yourself) is known for carrying parasites and deseases of various kinds, so anyone who plans on living this way should know the proper preparing as well as herbs and roots to counter what comes with it and then it's probably better than the usual way when it's about nutrients - not impossible but at least as complicated as a completely plant based diet. Everything has up- and downsides. My boss is a very carnivorous survival/outdoor guy and just recently had parasites (that are even visible in the excrement) in his intestines that caused various seemingly unrelated trouble, so: Watch your shit! ;)
High concentrations of garlic, ginger and coconut oil seem to be working well against those buggers.

BTW: Quite a surprising change of topic, but probably for the better.

I don't have a job. I'm about to get one though, and thanks to getting money from a rich uncle who redistributed his lottery money among his children, my cousins, my sister, and myself included I have been living the pretty well for myself. And that freaks me out a bit.

Also (and I know I've asked this before, but it bears repeating) if society values women more than men, why do men still make up the majority of world leaders and why do women still have to deal with people who want take away there right to abortions?
Because you're an idiot. The world is not a society and you're talking about outliers. The number of people in positions like that are only a couple percentage of the total population. Even most men have no expectation of ever getting to that point. Because we can't.

As far as money goes, you're a fucking hypocrite. Most of us do not have rich uncles to depend upon. You wouldn't be secure if you didn't have a rich uncle willing to share in the winnings.

Its the Gawker genes. Aside from being illegal, violating NDAs may hurt the advertising team who wanted to release important news at an important time, may lead consumers to assume details on little info and draw up shit like the FC4 racism thing, and many other stuff a journalist isn't supposed to do.

All games media, and all ''new media'' abide by NDAs. Its a contract of business. Even lets players abide by them. And since a company has the legal right to not do business with people who have previously broken contracts, I support this.

And it seems like this was the final straw. EVERYONE wants a piece of Kotaku right now.

He's just an idiot lol. Reply to him when you have nothing better to do and go along with what he says so he doesn't go away. This thread needs its bit of tinfoil every now and then.

Try yelling, "I like Unix" at your next party, that will certainly get the ladies' attention.

Rusty_Gunn: No, I don't think shit is vegan when it can contain discarded intestinal cells, so IMHO it's cannibalism
<eats more popcorn>
What about that cat butt coffee? Kopi Luwak?

I think it might be vegan since the digestion process is different.

Is that a bush or the Bush? Neither is probably very healthy.

All intestines have them AFAIK. As said before, its more about minimizing suffering than just not eating animals / animal products. So speaking on principles, if eating something plant based is less ethical than eating an animal-derived food, veganism will be on the latter side. IRL that probably won't happen but that is the principle.

Vegitarianism on the other hand is sticking to plant matter no matter what. It doesn't have the ethical basis (since milk and honey is permitted) veganism has. So different but similar.

Nasreddin's keys

One late evening Nasreddin found himself walking home. It was only a very short way and upon arrival he can be seen to be upset about something. Alas, just then a young man comes along and sees the Mullah's distress.
"Mullah, pray tell me: what is wrong?"

"Ah, my friend, I seem to have lost my keys. Would you help me search them? I know I had them when I left the tea house."

So, he helps Nasreddin with the search for the keys. For quite a while the man is searching here and there but no keys are to be found. He looks over to Nasreddin and finds him searching only a small area around a street lamp.

"Mullah, why are you only searching there?"

"Why would I search where there is no light?"

Otherwise known as observational bias.
