The Saturday 6-Pack

Alright, first off, I apologize for the last time I did this with the double post. I was having technical issues that are now resolved.

1. What was the last thing you saw, read or heard that made you cringe?

A guy rolls up to a gas station parking lot in a Tacoma, gets out, heavy set dude with American flag style shorts, a backwards neon green trucker hat, spits tobacco out of his window, and turns off a tailgating speaker he was using for his rap/country crossover music. Which is fine, except that there's a total overabundance of this in the Southeast of the U.S. Call me a dick for it, but my first thought was: " 'Murica."

2. Post an opinion you have that you think would be controversial either on here or in public.

**** social programming, generalizations, and the "Cult Of Ignorance."
???

3. What is a nice thing that someone did for you recently? If there is nothing, then tell us something nice you did for someone else.

My roommates threw me a moving out party, which I wasn't expecting at all. I was pleasantly surprised.

4. Which, if any, athletes or sports teams do you really not like?

I hate both the Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots. And the Miami Dolphins are terrible too, but they don't win games.

5. Would you eat lab grown meat if it was readily available and the same cost as non lab meat? Why/why not? This question also applies to vegans and non meat eaters.

Lab meat makes me uncomfortable. I don't really trust it. What the **** is in it??

6. Describe your ideal breakfast.

Three eggs, scrambled with cheese, bacon cooked to a soft but proper lightness, not too crispy but kind of in the middle between soft and crisp, and six to eight cups of coffee with cream and sugar. Though most of the time, it's just the coffee and I get ramen noodles or cans of chicken with some mayo and Italian seasoning to it. Coffee takes me about half way through the day before I need a re-up from the crashing.

They take stem cells from a cow and use it to keep growing the muscle fibres in a lab. Then when they have enough they mash it together and create the burger.

They cooked and ate one burger so far I think. It cost $300,000 to make.

The person who ate it said the taste was the same as slaughtered meat, but the texture was very different and it was more dry. It's literally just the muscle tissue atm almost no fat.

If they can sort out the texture and get it as close to slaughtered meat as possible while also having the cost come down then I'd switch to lab meat.

The raw lab meat looks like heartworms.

1. What was the last thing you saw, read or heard that made you cringe?
I don't know about cringe, but that story about the woman whose dog stood on the railway track, wouldn't move and she went to get him and got hit by a train was terribly sad.
2. Post an opinion you have that you think would be controversial either on here or in public.
I should be the ruler of the world.
3. What is a nice thing that someone did for you recently? If there is nothing, then tell us something nice you did for someone else.
Nobody killed me today, so thanks, world.
4. Which, if any, athletes or sports teams do you really not like?
Man United. Always will. Also Crystal Palace because **** them, and Stoke City. They can all eat a dick. Not necessarily the same one.
5. Would you eat lab grown meat if it was readily available and the same cost as non lab meat? Why/why not? This question also applies to vegans and non meat eaters.
Would this not save animals being slaughtered? Would it give me superpowers? If the first, yes. If the second, yes. Basically, yes, I think it's a good idea. As long as the animals aren't (gasp!) human!

6. Describe your ideal breakfast.
Anything at all eaten off Elizabeth Hurley's backside.

What if through genetic engineering they came up with the most delicious meat imaginable, lab grown with no nerve endings basically like a plant, that was 1% human DNA? Like if it just wasn’t nearly as good without that 1% of human liver fat, for example?

I think the real question is, would you eat lab grown human meat? Clearly the answer would be yes.

Idk if youre saying that to be edgy, but id have no hypothetical qualms about eating lab grown human flesh..

Well it would certainly add new meaning to the phrase, eat me, wouldn't it?

I don't know. Lab grown human meat? Probably tastes like chicken, so yeah, I guess. Also, they could just not tell me. Ignorance is bliss. And delicious.

I was going to post the video, but I was using YouTube to listen to the new Drudkh album so, you know, priorities.
