PeTA: Mind-Boggling Absurdity

As if the animals give a damn...



Forewarned is forearmed: don't trigger a PeTA-perxxx.

Rich comment from Weasel Zippers:
Ruth Brown

The folks at PETA are literally "sheep in wolves clothes" if you ask me. They make me "mad as a hornet" when they say these stupid things. They need to get their "ducks in a row" and "hold their horses" cuz "I'll be a monkey's uncle" if I let them make me into a "guinea pig" for this stupid experiment. My advice to them is "hold your horses"; just let "sleeping dogs lie" cuz you "can't teach an old dog new tricks". I guess they will have an "eagle's eye" out looking for those of us who aren't PC correct in our speech. In this "dog eat dog world", they might give a person "butterflies in their stomach", but truthfully, their "bark is worse than their bite". So everyone, please, just calm down, don't act like a "bull in a china shop". "A little bird told me" I can say anything I want.

And I think I will. Ha! That was like "shooting fish in a barrel" and fun to boot. I have bigger things to worry about like, WHICH CAME FIRST, THE CHICKEN OR THE EGG? who cares? Both taste delish, although I am a meat & potatoes gal myself. (Had hamburgers for dinner, YUM!)

    1. Ed,
      Thanks for that link. I've not watched Tucker Carlson's show lately.

  3. Maybe we should stop getting all het up about these silly things, and try to appreciate them as the self-satire they really are –– whether the PETA people recognizes it or not?

    The French have an idiom that comes from the faraway days when shepherds still watched their flocks by night, but occasionally left their posts to perform "social" functions. It says "Revenons aux nous moutons," which literally translated means "Let us return to our sheep."

    The French, however, understand it to mean "Let's stop digressing and get back to the subject at hand."

    If anyone besides me remembers taking piano lessons back in the day, John Thompson's First Grade Book –– THE standard text for beginners then –– contained this rhyme:

    Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep
    And looks for them sedately.
    I really hope she finds them soon.
    We've had no lamb chops lately.


    I'm sure PETA would go on a crusade demanding ever copy be burned and the ornal plates that prunted it destroyed ut of respect for the dear ittle wooly lambs, bla bla bla.

    Now please remember in future never to dare tell a woman she looks like The Cat's Meow in a bathing suit. That would be a double whammy –– a SEXIST SLUR against Womankind, AND a callous INSULT to Felines all over the world.

    I guess we're suppose to stop using common terms like batshit and bullshit too, eh?

    Well, at the risk of offending those few left who still try to maintain old wrld sandards of decency and decorum I'll tell you what I think of PETA.

    It's HORSESHIT!

    1. Franco,
      I first saw John Thompson's First Grade Book back in the the mid-60's. I think that the "Little Bo Peep" rhyme had been changed even then.

      I wonder what other politically-correct changes the John Thompson piano method books have undergone.

    2. Riding through a green and leafy wood
      Comes a lady wearing cloak and hood
      She is very sad.
      Isn't it too bad?
      Surely we would help her if we could

      Lo, a gallant knight comes riding by,
      How he hates to see a lady cry!
      He will take her part,
      Win her gentle heart.
      Quietly we'll leave them, you and I.


      Written in A-Major -- THREE SHARPS! –– a big event in a beginner's life. Of courseI had to transpose the thing into all 12 keys before I was allowed to let go of it –– one of the prices one has to pa for having talent, I guess! ;-).

      At any ate, can you IMAGiNE what the Freudianitwitz would try to make of THAT innocent little rhyme?

      SEXISM!
      PATRIARCHAL MALE CHAUVINISM!
      SUPPRESSION of FEMININITY!
      DENIAL of FEMALE INDEPENDENCE!
      SUGGESTIVE of a POSSIBLE RAPE!

      YOU NAME It!


      If Civilization is to survive, we MUST STAMP OUT, ERADICATE, and ANNIHILATE PEE-CEE!

  4. Oh, and PLEASE whatever you do in future DON't refer to your cat or anyone else's "PUSSY."

    It's a gross, indecent INSULT to WOMEN.

    I see Mother Goose TOO must be bowdlerized asap.

    And for heaven's sake NEVER AGAIN call anyone who overacts on stage, screen or television a HAM actor.

    2. I don't know, Franco. Maybe liberals have a point... "Baby it's Cold Outside" DOES sound kinda rapey!

    3. Yep this needs to get added to all those banned WWII cartoons along with the Songs of the South.

    4. Only someone who's fallen prey to the fantastic, fatally fatuous fanciful fabrications of Freud's foul feelings could think like that, Joe Ho Ho.

      I was THERE when Esther Williams, Ricardo Montalban, Red Skelton and Betty Garret premiered Baby It's Cold Outside in the movie Neptune's Daughter way way WAY back in the 1940's. Everybody LOVED it, found it charmingly whimsical, and went around hummig and whistling it without a care in the world.

      I've even POSTED it at FreeThinke's blog back when I had access to that now blocked piece of territory in the blogosphere.

      It's only dreary, humorless LEFTISTS like "A-ninny-mess" [Don't think I don't know who you are, A-hole, I can always tell by the utrid odor] who strive to see nothing BUT smut, corruption, insolence, ugliness, and dishonor lurking in every corner as well as behind and beneath each piece of furniture, etc.

      M advice?

      STOP ANALYZING, and START LIVING.

    5. You have to admit that the line, "Say, what's in that drink" has a more sinister meaning today than it did at the time of release. I believe that's the point of contention.

      That said, the Tony Bennett/Lady Gaga version is pretty good.

    6. IF what you say is true, it's only a measure of how LOW we've sunk, how far we've FALLEN and how abysmally STUPID we've become since the SICK-sties.

      The inability to see humor and charm in things that are genuinely funny snd endearing is a sign either of mental retardation or serious cultural decline.

    7. I still don't think it was referring to a Rufi in the drink, McDuck. Amount of alcohol was the likely reference. Rufi's are a modern idea.

    8. Interesting factoid:
      The song "Baby It's Cold Outside" was not planned to be in this film. It took the place of Frank Loesser's "(I'd Like to Get You on a) Slow Boat to China," which the Hayes Office thought inappropriate

    9. Too rapey?

      I wonder what the Hayes Code people saw in it...

  5. Just the latest salvo to divide us. I must say these Marxists are certainly creative in discovering topics that will get our ire up. But that is the Piven and Alinsky way now isn't it? Keep moving the target.. otherwise the little drones will tire and find it no fun.

    1. There is still the problem of the volume of resources necessary to produce animal protein. The oceans are overfished. George's Bank is still barren.
      Rain forests are being cut down to provide grazing for Big Macs. It's not sustainable.

      PETA may be ham fisted dopes but they are correct about the need to reduce the amount of animal protein in our diets.

      Or we can just trash the place.

  6. Actually, this is very comical. Now, it's time to run out to work so I can keep bringing me home some bacon.

  7. Well, some of us will be all over this like a duck on a June bug. Peta-ists need to 'feel' relevant, so they paint a snake and add legs to it (exaggerate). They may think they're the bee's knees, but now that they've let the cat out of the bag we can call it for what it is: all hat and no cattle.
