Think of me like Yoda,
but instead of being little and green,
I wear suits and I'm awesome.

Auckland is cold and miserable, that is all.

Too right. I think everyone that doesn't already live in Auckland would rather cut off their testies/ovaries and sacrifice their future children than move to Auckland.

I live so far west of Auckland, that im not even in Auckland, people are people where i live. :D

I can understand Codex's fear of Auckland though, it would be scary living in a multicultural city that has a cbd.

I heard they were going to install Futurama styled suicide booths in Auckland CBD then they realized that they would be in overuse from people forced to live there. True story.

I would happily give up medical advancements made due to ( non- human) animal testing. too many of us fat bastards/preening gym-bunnies around anyway.

Watch the trailer, at the very least.

Its just natural selection. We humans are naturally the best, so all other species except the ones we farm for delicious foods, will die out.

You didn't watch it, aye! It's unnatural and unnecessary for us to sustain ourselves with meat these days in our comfortable little first world bubbles. skinned alive, inhumane treatment and cetera. Watch it and be stirred. It's important for as many people as possible to watch it.
We certainly aren't naturally the best, given the short length of time we've been around. We're certainly the most brutal and 'big for our boots'.

Oh, in other news....
...nope, nothing. :(

I like eating meat, I'm an omnivore and enjoy the taste, however, I don't like seeing an animal suffer unduly.

I watched it. Largely unmoved sorry. I've never really anthropomorphised animals. I make my own decisions about eating meat that's been treated with a minimum of cruelty by only buying and eating free range meat, but I have no issues with others making different decisions.

Personally I'd prefer it if everyone who eats meat has to kill what they eat at least once, but I only think that because when I've had to slaughter sheep, euthanise lambs, or cull rabbits and wild cats, I found distasteful and unpleasant, so  I prefer to see suffering kept to a practical minimum. Again, that's my view and I have no issue with people who don't share it.

Oh and we are far from the most brutal. Watching a cat spend 5 minutes with a bird its caught puts paid to that one. Nature is brutal and unforgiving. Most animals in the wild die in terror and misery without any human intervention.

Also, it's perfectly natural for humans to 'sustain' ourselves with meat.

I can't think of anything MORE natural to be honest.
