As I mentioned in this week’s porncast, sorry for the lack of updates this week – I’m in a situation that’s the professional equivalent of the 80’s sitcom standby of the guy with two dates on the same night with two different people. But here’s something Angela sent me a little while back:
And as my title so eloquently puts it, yes, almost everything needs to be spelled out, but be aware that omnivores can figure out when you’re making stuff up. Sometimes, anyway. My “veggie burgers? Well, they sculpt a cow out of tofu, yeah, life sized, and then they stab it in the throat and grind it up into patties” story hasn’t met much acceptance, but it’s all I’ve got and I’ll cling to it like a clingy thing is wont to cling to other things.
And speaking of the Facebook, it was brought to my attention the other day that I don’t have links to our presence there – you can fan us up if you so desire. I was thinking of putting those “Like” buttons on every post like I do on Staying Vegan, but the “P” word may or may not be the kind of thing that people want to see too much of on their walls (for the record, the VP page says “Vegan Pooooooorrrrrnnnn” or something like that.)

Seriously? This person’s grandchildren will kick him or her in the nads when they realize the legacy that was denied them:
Portions of that screen shot were edited in. No, not the asparagus.

Just because Ange sent me this doesn’t mean I’m about to add loggers and filters to the Thrust Labs internet connection, but there’s apparently a new dating site in town and this one focuses on members’ companion animals. No, it’s not for arranging play dates for your terrier, it just takes your animal preferences into account so if you live with, say, a siamese cat, you don’t hook up with someone that lives with a rare siamese cat-eating balooka lizard. Over the years I’ve heard from a few people who feel that their companion animals, whether it’s one cat or a sanctuary-level herd of critters, has had an impact on their dating life, so this is an interesting niche that hopefully will spill over to the more mainstream dating sites. I can’t connect to the site at the moment, which may not even be in English, so there’s no word if “I don’t eat them” is included anywhere in visitor profiles’ list of animal preferences. Link.

The internet is a wonderful place where all your dreams can come true, even if your dream is for broccoli to become Broc Lee, a martial artist who fights ninja carrots. You heard me, ninja carrots. Check out the video and thank Ange for the link: Link.
Quick, someone send this one to the folks who run The Apprentice: I want to hear The Donald say “the vegan product in-dustry is a 2.8 billion dollar in-dustry,” because it is, and more people need to know about it than kunsjoi, who sent in the story, which is a decent article spotlighting several vegan enterprises in Arizona, of all places. Link.

All the penis posts this week are from Dagda Samildanc. I don’t plan these things, they just happen. Frankly, I’m just a caveman, and I don’t understand your internet ways, but I do know this: when I hear of an eBay auction for penis-shaped peppers, I figure yeah, uh-huh, how penis-shaped can they be, and then I click on the link and I know for sure. Now you will too: Link.

We haven’t posted any Flash-based propaganda lately, so here’s one from Magic Stones – the Organic Consumers Association would like everyone to buy organic flowers and organic fair trade chocolate this Valentine’s Day. I’m mostly posting this one because there’s a bit with Sigfried and Roy in it that didn’t go at all like I really, really, really thought it would. Not trying to spoil anything here or nothin’, but it came so close to being the greatest thing I have ever seen, and then fell a million miles short. Link.

I’m pleased to announce that I would make a lousy CEO of McDonald’s, and you too can be pleased, via the McDonald’s simulator! Productivity… slipping… Link.

kunsjoi sends in a ton of links, some of which are listed in his “WTF digests,” and others are exactly what I need to see after a day of depressing news. Behold: art with fruits! Link.
