Oh, gosh, I remember feeling that way--it was after reading about, and seeing undercover photos taken at, slaughterhouses and factory farms. That was in 1988. Haven't eaten/worn/used dead animal products ever since! :D

Is there any living being the Chinese won't kill and eat?!

And just in case anyone isn't aware, the Chinese dog and cat meat [and fur] trade involves heinous...unbelievable-sounding, but true, cruelty to these helpless, sentient beings. :(

Probably P&CA

Actually from what I've seen many of the mink garments I see on sale here use pelts imported from the US and Canada, where the fur farms are. With China and Russia their biggest markets.

I'm pretty sure fur farming is banned in the UK, my country.

translated: "IMPORTED US MINK"

Honestly I find it odd, how we abolished slaughterhouses, yet we think smoking is so bada** seriously, are we just that
let it fly by night type? I also find it odd how those kinds of memories of Bizzare Foods trigger within the show, the same name too, I used to watch that and also No Reseverations on Travel Network...
I still have a mad crush on Bourdain.
 
IT IS NOT A HUMAN :thinking:

I still think one of the oddest things I've seen on a garment, was a quotation from the Bible, Genesis 1:1-3, in King James Chinglish Version.

I saw Rogue One a year or two ago and thought it was cool how the closing events of Rogue One take place just mere minutes before the opening scene of star wars a new hope.
However as I was rewatching star wars a new hope, the opening scene had storm storm troopers attacking the rebels on the ship and not Darth Vader.
So I was a bit confused it was suddenly if Rogue One and Star wars a new hope were out of sync,
Then I had a solution to the problem , the opening scene of star wars a new hope is taking place exactly at the same time as the scene with Darth Vader in Rogue One, how?
Simple they took place in two different locations exactly at the same time
Sorry I currently have too much time on my hands

I couldn't get into Rogue One either, and I saw it in an almost empty theatre, with huge 3D screen, Dolby Atmos, etc.

My friend is going to rent out the entire theater to see the new Star Wars movie..
I might bring my wife over just to introduce her to everyone, if she does not have any plans... :D hahaa...
Still funny to say that and type it ...
 
I am told so many things, I do not have time to become a bully.
OR is it the other way around? I am not mad anyways.
Maybe I am mad all the time?
Who knows what flows through my head, not even myself.
 
Went out of town, talked with my sisters ex husband, at the restraunt he was in, little bit told him about my wife to be, mom shot me down and said "Oh he has only a crush" I uttered underneath my breath "Mom why do you have to protect me, honestly I am getting eloped soon, and you are not invited."

Why is it that things like furnaces go on the fritz either on a Friday night or a Saturday morning and then you have to wait for parts to come...

(Think happy and restorative thoughts as I try to get ours working again...)

They never quit in the summer when you have all kinds of time for a repair. :) Good luck with the a quick and easy on the pocket book fix. Sorry..

Thanks for the well-wishes. Less than $200 and a couple of hours of labor, mostly spent figuring out how to rewire the updated controller board. Been running solidly for about an hour and brought the house from 51 to 60 in that amount of time. Sure feels good after being down since Friday.
