Retcon Anyone?

How's that? Just because they have feelings doesn't mean I can't eat them, does it now?

I mean things like horses and cats and dogs - they're special animals for humans.

Cats are for me. But I'd still eat one if it turned out they were tasty. MY cats are not the same as any old cat.

Dogs on the other hand are just germ motherships full of dirt and slobber, and horses really have no place in modern society other than to be eaten. I mean, why ride a horse when you could ride a BMW motorcycle?

What then? The smell of horseshit?

I, personally, do not care. But that sounds like what GG would say.

No, it's because they're lovely, beautiful, gentle and strong animals who will love you as much as you love them - there's a special bond between the horse and the rider that you don't get from cars and their drivers.
They're just all round wonderful animals, and riding is great fun, as well as healthy.

Clearly you have no idea about driving. When I sit in a car, or on a motorbike, I become one with it. I can feel every turn of every cog in the system, every electrical impulse and, yes, the exact grain of the road beneath my ***. Of course that only really kicks in beyond 100 KPH, but hey, no speed limits over here.

Oh, and I really have no intention of being loved by food.

Crackhead.

Ofcourse this will now render your judgement invalid beyond the normal prejudices.

Since I fired you.

Also, horses are not food.

That's disgusting. I mean, ew. It'd be like eating a dog or a cat. Or a rat. Or insects. I mean, how desperate do you have to be to eat a horse? Can Europe no longer afford beef (the most delicious meat ever)?

Also, I love how some people are like, "It's wrong to eat X". One could make a viable argument that it's wrong to eat anything. But I like not starving to death, so om nom nom.

Also, don't forget the food chain:


All animals exist for our consumption. Most of us have the luxury of sticking with the good ones (Chicken, Turkey, Pork, Beef, and Platypus).

Seriously, you have to try a good horse steak before you knock it.

My favourite 'meat' remains sea devil, but horse is definitely better than your average beef. It might not stack up to Black Angus or Kobe, but it casually beats the snot out of corn-fed.

Also, insects can be ******* yummy if done right, too. I just don't like how the legs scratch and scrape against your throat on the way down, so you need to smother them in dip.

A properly engineered machine can be a work of art, and perhaps express the soul of the builder.

In most states, it's wrong to have special relationships with animals.

It still won't show affection the way a living animal does

I think you can say that about most hobbies.

Oh, I understand the topic.

That's not the same as understanding why people love horses

Maybe she got the wrong idea from the term Animal Husbrandry.
