My brother said this about banana sausages: "AWESOME IDEA. I would love it if meat grew on trees like bananas did."

This kinda reminds me of a question that someone asked PETA members. I think they were assuming there was this fictional object that made meat out of nothing and asked if it was okay to eat meat then, and I thought it was a very valid question. Especially since PETA is nothing more than an animal rights terrorist organization, although they have their fair share of veganist superiority ads as well.
 
How can meat be made out of nothing? Paradox. D:

Tbh I think they would eat it even if that were so. XD;

Wrong usage of paradox iirc, but still. This is a completely hypothetical situation because members of PETA usually say that meat is bad because animals are being killed for it, but they also like to throw around health facts afterwards.

Anways, most people from PETA seem completely offended by everything that doesn't worship veganism and put meat eaters in the same group as rapists and serial killers. I fully admit that it could just be a very vocal minority, but most logical vegans I spoke to don't associate themselves with PETA.
 
Every group of people has a small minority with the largest voice.

Sadly, these also happen to be the most stupid of the lot.
 
...yeah I agree, if people were more quiet about their opinions in the most case, the world would be a better place.

If people keep quiet about their opinion then the people with an actual logical opinion would be quiet about it too. It's a double edged sword Nica, like many other things in life.
 
But! What if there are people who have important opinions and aren't afraid of what people think of them?
 
How to do define "important" opinion? Any opinion is important, but that does not mean it is smart nor educated. If they are not afraid of what people think then they will go off and spout off whatever remark they have in mind.
 
...I know something sucked about that, constructive opinions that promote discussion to go forward rather than backward. XD;

Actually have positive things to contribute--I'm thinking about trolls now. XD;
 
Thinking about trolls, eh Nica? The people that come onto a forum to wreak havoc. Well I know one person who obviously trolls on an xat chat that I'm Main Owner on, it's someone who of course makes fun of everyone, insulting all my friends on xat. I did indeed ban him forever on that chat about two months ago... because he wouldn't stop insulting my friends, he like... came every day just insult someone. Which was rather sad.

How sad, you would think people would put their time into something productive(not that posting on forums is all that productive) instead of spending their time berating other people. If the persons sole intent is to troll a xat he needs to find some new hobbies outside of trolling.

In a way, I can understand why people would want to troll. It's obviously for entertainment reasons. On the other hand, I can see the immaturity of it, and the huge negative outcome that would result because of trolling. For me, trolling between friends is fine as long as your friends know that you're doing it, but trolling completely innocent members(and I mean harsh trolling, at that) is sorta crossing the line and is something I'm completely against, as well as trolling without good reason.

Not... really. I don't think that it's that entertaining (now), but hey if you get along with people who are supposedly trolling at the time, you feel like the king or queen of the world~
 
What're we talking about?

Whatever it is I've got something better to talk about.

Yes, indeed, although I do actually try to help him to be nicer and not mean, but it seems it's not working. It probably must be his parents, 'cause I've heard his dad hits him just for yelling at him.

Well yes, however on the other hand it can also be due to the fact that they want to "make the person suffer" or something. mostly because they have a dislike on the person. Well even if I had a dislike on someone... I sure would never do something horrible like make fun of them, because I care about everyone... and well... I'm too nice. But I can understand that stress causes someone to feel like trolling. Because what I've realized... is that pressure can cause stress, and stress can lead to some sort of disorder, like a mental illness or something.
 
LOL Rodger Smith. Talk about a generic name. I liked Big O but the ending kind of turned me off, just like how I liked Ranma and Gungrave the ending was not good imo. Although I still love Ranma.
 
That's not true. Some trolls are in fact some of the most intelligent people you will ever meet in your life. Do you know what some people have told me, in my gifted class? They troll. Not because they're mean, but trolling is literally psychology at it's finest, much like bullying, except not in most cases. Also only a really smart, or well-rounded person can troll successfully. The only troll who has impressed me would have to some guy on YouTube, but that was like 3 years ago. Before I even knew what trolling even meant.
