PETA says, "Stop Saying Bring Home The Bacon"

[Shiloh Raven]

Vegetarians...

Actually it isn't. There isn't a word for vegetarian in any Native American dialect. That just goes to show the sheer ignorance of the person who came up with this ridiculous saying. There isn't even a word for lousy in the Cherokee dialect that I speak. However, ganohalidohi means hunter.

 

[Go Braves]

OK. Well can the folks who don't want their bacon please just give it to me. Please & thank you.

 

[NBB]

First world problem... changing the language to animal friendly really.

Well Peta ones are a little out there and we should pray for them.

Reminds me I forgot to pray for that raw fish I ate today. Well I didn't pray for the fish but, I did thank God for it.

You should've prayed to ask for forgiveness for treating a fish that way. It deserved to be battered & fried, Bob. Have some respect.

But that leads to battered fish syndrome...

Actually it isn't.

[word nerd] It's a type of humor known as false etymology. It can be associated with any exotic-sounding language. [/word nerd]

Yes, I know what it is, but that doesn't mean I like it. I've heard jokes like that for the majority of the 45 years of my life. Needless to say, as a veteran Native American social justice and political activist, I don't have patience anymore for the cultural appropriation of NDN culture, in any form or fashion.

And that's all? He didn't eat the meat? He didn't drink the milk?

Who knows? But after the flood God told Noah to include animals in the diet.

PETA has jumped the shark on this one. This is the straw that broke the camel's back.

 

[Go Braves]

Really, are you saying that after reading this fine and very helpful and thoughtful thread you are now "pigging" down on some bacon?

Jeepers -- speechless here!

Goats are spinning circles with their eyes closed!

M-Bob

Didn't know folks out in California said jeepers too! I say that all the time, get ribbed on account of how it makes me sound like I'm an old man from the South. I'm from the South, just not old, lol.

Speaking of California is it true that out there folks do YOGA with goats on top of them? Wonder what PETA & Bob's goats think about that???

True but, we don't try to encourage that behavior up top the mountain.
I will hide your post from the goats.
Please don't give them any more ideas.
They are wretched enough!

It sounds like a wretched idea. What if one of those goats had a full bladder while standing on top of somebody's back in a yoga class? That would be a way of ruining all that 'namaste' relaxation real quick.

True very true for one thing I have noticed they seem to have no control whatsoever when they do their little thing. Almost seems like they don't even know when they're doing it? For sure I would not want one on top of me.
