A leader of PETA has announce that She wants to be BBQed
:rolleyes:
I figured the appropriate place for this was the BBQ pit.
Maybe “I will make a stir FRY” would have been better? 
Carry on
Sorry, there’s a MPSIMS thread started Here
“I’m done!”
Every time PETA is mentioned, a quote I’ve heard comes to mind. “If God didn’t want us to eat animals, why did he make them out of meat?”
These idealistic and unrealistic leftist goofballs are a constant source of entertainment. They are also good for my eye muscles as I get in several “rolling reps” each time I am involuntarily exposed to thier lunacy.
It’s hardly fair. We have to wait for her to die off naturally. If she wanted to save some cows RIGHT NOW, she’d offer herself up as dinner more promptly.
I’m not really a cannibal. Honest.
yawn
She needs to see The Cook, the Thief, His Wife and Her Lover
How about eating Raul?
And every time this old saw is trotted out, I think of something a fellow doper said: You’re made of meat, too.

I wonder if anyone feels like taking me up on a stress-the-hamsters challenge. Is there ANY nonprofit organization whose efforts are publicized on these boards as often as PETA’s?
Hell, I’d be surprised if all other nonprofits COMBINED are posted about as often as PETA is.
Fault them for their illogic. Fault them for their offensiveness. But you can’t fault them for their marketing strategy: you guys do their work for them.

You certainly can fault them for their marketing strategy. Just because people are talking about you, doesn’t mean you’re having the intended effect with your marketing efforts.
If you doubt my statement, please feel free to apply for a job with Enron. Or HealthSouth. They’ve gotten a lot of press lately.
Enron, unlike PETA, wasn’t in business to raise awareness for a cause.
I think that their publicity strategy is pretty trollish, and that treating them similarly is wise.

The only ‘awareness’ PETA really raises is the awareness of what total and complete assclowns they are.
Despite what some may think, not all publicity is good and the fact that we talk about the astonishingly low IQ level displayed by PETA does not mean we’re ‘aware’ of their ‘cause’ or even give a damn what their ‘cause’ is.
If they were trying to rally support for the cardboard housebuilders union with methods like these, I would not care. They’d still be funny.
Blasting their actions because they are stupid doesn’t have anything to do with their philosophy.
IOW, if you’re an asshole in a chickensuit tap dancing to get people to listen to your message, I probably won’t hear one word you say. I’m also going to laugh my ass off at you because you’re still an asshole in a chicken suit tap dancing.
Eat me.
Fagjunk Theology: Not just for sodomite propagandists anymore.
Yeah, but even if people become aware of them, that doesn’t mean they’ll come around to PETA’s side of the argument.
On the contrary, because they have been known to twist facts and logic around, people will be more likely to dismiss the animal welfare cause as those “Crazy PETA types” or what have you.
Unfortunately, the article didn’t include a good photo of her. How are we supposed to tell what shape she’s in to see if she’s fit for BBQ? From the photos I got off Google, she looked a bit fatty. Since she wants to go on with this, do we have permission to put her on a good corn feed diet for a few months and run her for a while to build up some muscle first? I assume she’s against hormone treatments so that path is right out. And is this going to be a real BBQ or one of those fake Yankee barbecues?
Finally, the ultimate solution to the “problems” PETA wishes to address, and it benefits the world as a whole in the process.
If every member of Pustules Emulating Total Assholes would show their conviction by having themselves skinned, butchered and rendered, they could
a) Demonstrate the strength of their convictions
b) Put forth a viable alternative to the animal products market
c) Finally shut the fuck up
As someone who worked in corporate marketing for ten years, I want to address the note above about PETA’s strategy. In very general terms, there are two types of marketing: Product marketing and brand marketing. Product marketing tells you how great the product, idea, organization, service, etc. is and encourages you to buy it, join it or do whatever. It motivates the target demographic to a desired actions.
Brand marketing is name recognition. Its only real goal is to keep the name of the product, organization or whatever on the public’s radar, preferably in a positive way.
PETA has been pretty successful at brand marketing, since just about everyone knows who they are. However, brand marketing normally strives to associate positive qualities, and they’ve failed utterly in this, as they are normally regarded as “assclowns” by the general public and receive little support.
PETA’s product marketing is attrocious and quite probably the worst example of the form I have ever seen. First, they do very little of it, and what they do undertake is directed at demographics where they already have a fairly solid support base, i.e. preaching to the choir.
If PETA’s goals are so damn noble, which I don’t think they are but that’s just MHO, they should try to drum up support in the public at large or at least in concentric demographics to their established core. The fact that they have no such strategy in place, and to my knowledge never have had, makes me tend to believe the organization is much more focused on its “image” as the besieged defender of all things furry than a group actually out to achieve anything.
It’s kind of like the 20 YO skater with the half shaved head and the anarchy symbol tattoo on his neck who screeches at passersby about the evils of corporate culture because he craves the attention rather than actually wants to work to change anything. To him, and I believe to PETA, ever negative comment is a psychoticly adulterated validation of their actions.
Useless pigfuckers.
Please forgive the myriad typing errors in the last post. I was on a roll and didn’t pre-check. Mea culpa.
I always think of People Eating Tasty Animals.
YMMV.
