I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

You should suck dicks professionally then, I'm pretty sure even the starting rate is way higher.

Apple did a ton of incredibly lovely elitist ads back in the day that was embraced whole heartedly by the community, and the Apple community is still living that impression down. Especially when Apple products are just the Teslas of tech where the whole idea is to pay more for less and to take pride in needing an adaptor for everything.


Vegetarians are their own can of worms. Almost all vegetarians are vegetarians for moral reasons. And when you declare certain foods immoral then you radiate judgement towards people who do eat that kind of food.

I said "Almost all" specifically to leave room for niche vegetarians. No doctor is going to tell anyone to go vegetarian unless they have some very specific medical condition. They're going to tell them to cut down on the meat and most people probably should.

I’ve met many vegetarians who profess it being due to health reasons, but who have no specific medical requirement to eliminate meat. They just feel like it’s healthier for them, and they didn’t feel they needed a doctor’s instruction to eat in a healthier way (or go to the gym, for that matter). I didn’t think this was an unusual case — people often choose their diet due to perceived health impact without the input of a medical professional — but maybe all my vegetarian contacts are weird. It could be!

It’s easily possible for a vegan or vegetarian diet to help someone’s health because it finally forces them to pay attention to what they’re eating. It’s usually someone going from eating 3500 calories of fatty garbage per day to eating a healthy, restrained diet.

You add up the total number of dead animals and then divide it by the total number of animals. If I have a recipe book that's just how to cook a whole pig and a meatless salad that goes well with it my recipe book is .5 dead animals per recipe.

This makes no sense. It's clearly a subjective idea of how many animals die based on how much of their meat it calls for, as a portion of the amount of average meat per animal composition. If it's two chicken breasts that's two deaths since chickens don't have two breasts. If it's a bunch of sausages I guess you crunch the numbers and end up with an eighth of a pig. You don't even know how many animals there are, if it calls for a whole pig then you've killed one pig don't give me this .5 malarkey because you also made a salad. If it suggests you enjoy with a glass of orange juice has the number gone down to .333 animals per recipe?

It's not in any way subjective. You cannot kill a fraction of an animal, but you can kill a fraction of an animal per recipe. If you work out that a pig can be made into 100 sausages then a recipe that calls for 10 sausages kills one pig. A recipe that calls for 101 sausages kills two pigs. If you need three chicken legs for one recipe and one for the next then that's two chickens for the first and one for the second for an average of 1.5 per recipe.

You take the minimum number of animals required for each recipe separately and add them all together, then you divide by the total number of recipes. That's it. It's a very basic calculation.

Take the plunge! Okay!

In the time it took you to write this post you could have just read the article and accepted that you were wrong. It was written as a novelty (the 'winner' had a hugely skewed average because one recipe called for dozens of tiny fish) and a bunch of fragile epic bacon sriracha nerds swarmed it to make the same old Maddox joke because they felt attacked.
