Dumbest site ever? *OT*
Posted By: Red Loser <dnannery@purdue.edu>Date: 2/3/03 1:27 p.m.

In Response To: Re: I never understood that saying... *OT* (FrogBlast)

: Internet search turned up this tidbit:
: http://www.catteacorner.com/animals.htm

: (doesn't explain... but teaches us how to not exploit animals through speech)

After a quick examination of this site's contents, I have concluded that this is indeed by far the dumbest site I have ever seen...

Do the common figures of speech that you use perpetuate animal exploitation and cruelty? Then try these animal-friendly alternatives!

[...]

This place looks like a pig sty.

If left to themselves, pigs keep their homes very clean. It's only when they're in captivity that they are forced to live in their own filth.

This place looks like a garbage dump or This place looks like a teenager's bedroom ;-).

More like cruelty to teenagers! If teenagers are left to themselves instead of being placed with a bunch of other teenagers, perhaps they are clean too!

S/he's being catty.

Cats are not mean, and never make unkind remarks about other cats (or people!).

S/he's being mean.

I'm a cat person, but I can assure you that there are a great many mean cats.

There are plenty of other fish in the sea.

And that's where they belong!

There are plenty of other leaves in the tea.

I don't get it...isn't that a good thing, since you're releasing a fish...?

Blind as a bat.

Although they rely strongly on echo-location ("radar"), bats have very good vision.

Blind as a turnip or Totally blind.

When I heard that quotation, the first thought that popped into my head was, "Why, oh why, have I not kept up with my weekly quota of bat beatings? Because, after all, all blind creatures deserve to die."

Finally, right-clicking on the page brings up a message refusing access to page contents. Unfortunately, these people never really thought about what would happen if I clicked View -> Source, and then copy/pasted...

And since when is it necessary to censor EVERY use of the word God? Is the very thought of His existence a scourge to humanity? Hmmm...maybe I should write a new Bible (sorry, B---e) translation with the words J---s, G-d, and the H--y S----t censored. And since "God is l--e," among many other characteristics, I would have to censor the words "h--y," "j--t," "m------l," "g------s," "k--d," and "o--------t."

S-, i- c--------n, I w---d l--e t- s-y t--t I c--'t i-----e a s--e b---g d----r t--n t--t...
