Ok. So you'll condone fish (and other sea creatures) being caught in a net, or speared through the lip and then suffocated to death; split open and gutted, and deboned...
...but not the same for animals?
Hyp-o-crite...

Never gave my goldfish a name, ya see...
You are right, my bad.
I like to justify myself but it doesn't stand up to criticism.

"its ok to eat fish, 'cos they haven't any feet..." Nirvana, probably misquote as my memory doesn't feel too good right now...

Thank you for justifying my existance!
I suppose it has something to do with the fact that when I took Biology in school (which was right by the ocean) my teacher told me that most seathings were so incredibly different from us mammals that they qualified as aliens. That and my upbringing, which was very ocean-based. We had a sheep farm and I didn't mind eatiing little lambses for the longest time, but now I couldn't even conceive of it.

Lambies.
Have you heard of the "fish don't have any feelings in their mouth" argument? It's hilarious...
I'll still eat them though. I have dodgy enough eating habits as it is without me cutting things out of my diet.

There are people who swear that veggies scream when you cut them from the ground. We all live compromises, and I can only do as I do, hopefully not having to justify it. It's the real world and we are all different. I'm happy with me and willing to be happy with those I care about.

I'm happy with you too!
I live by the ethos of doing everything, and justifying nothing. If you justify your actions, it only leads to trouble...

*doing everything, and justifying nothing*
Yeouch!
You know I'll think about that one!
G'night little one, and I'll talk tomorrow.
