Been A Year
So it's been a year since this thing was updated, but I might as well get back into it.
So throughout the year since my last update, PETA has remained relatively consistent in their actions. Still hating KFC and iams, still exploiting woman in their ads, and still ordering the cucumber salad at Sizzler.
(editor's note...this post will most likely blow since I'm drunk as fuck).
This update relates to a great Canadian tradition that takes place every time this year....a tradition that transcends cultures....transcends generations......transcends race. Yes boys and girls, the long and gruelling hunt to take down Heidi Klum's husband has apparently angered the brass at PETA.
On a recent entry on PETA's official blog, the writer named Jack (who has a cat named Princess Cuteyface for the record...awwwww, sounds tasty) applauds the efforts of animal activists who have staged a "die-in" outside Prime Minister Harper's Ottawa offices. Now, a "die-in"is a relatively new term to me also, but I assume it has to do with one dying...in. Unfortunately, the participants of the die-in didn't take the term too literally.
According to Jack, "the activists stripped off, covered themselves in fake blood, and held a “die-in” outside his office to symbolize the bloody seal-killing that happens every year on the ice floes off Newfoundland". Thank God they're taking action against Newfoundland, the seal hunters in Nunavut have really been lacking this year.
Now, as all Canadians know, the best way to get your point across to Stephen Harper and the Conservative Party is by making a statement that is against the norm, against the way things have been done historically.
Anyhow, "Jack" tries to reach out to Canadians, to let him know he does care about their poor countyr. He cites how he loves hockey, Maple Syrup (which by the way comes from mutilating trees, but whatever) and the "kickass national anthem", but...."WTF with the baby-seal bludgeoning? Seriously: worst idea for a national tradition ever." Like...yeah, I mean, like..that is seriously soooo not good of you Canada...like, those seals never get to like, dive into oceans....and swim..and meet friends...and like, get devoured by orca's.
I do agree that it's a horrible tradition. It's like giving thanks for a day when white people invaded a land from Plymouth Rock and subject the natives to decades of abuse, or by celebrating a day in which Columbus found the "new world", leading to centuries of slavery. Yeah, those would be horrible ideas for holidays.
Well Jack, at least you were clever enough to refer to this activists as "dead naked seal people".
I really have no idea how to comprehend that....
Dead Naked Seal People
Really?
Serious?
WTF!
