Gordon Ramsay Eats Shark Fin Soup for the First Time
Sharks are apex predators. Last time I checked, geese were not.>> ^legacy0100:
Mind you that I have never tried shark fin soup, but I must point out that Ramsey again puts himself in the shoes of an extremist. I've seen the documentaries of Ramsay and he is not this intense egomaniac he presents himself in front of Cameras. So I'm not sure how much he believes in the things he's preaches in this video.
But my main concern of this video is this ridiculous Hypocracy that's going on in this video. He has yet again taken this role as a very ethnocentric typical westerner judging and criticizing cultures that are different from his own for the sake of entertaining television. In the video he is arguing that harvesting fins from sharks are bad because:
1. Sharks are endangered species
2. The rest of the shark meat is being wasted.
3. The fins doesn't taste that good.
4. Sharks are killed inhumanely.
Then I've compared it with a delicacy from western tradition: Foie gra. http://www.aprl.org/sdcitybeat.php
1. Foie Gras Geese are Specially bred species that will not survive out in the wild. They are specialized to live ina mechanized farm to yield maximum production.
2. Goose meat is generally gamier and intensely flavored, and considered a 'delicacy'. Translation= People would rather eat chicken.
3. A lot of Easteners do not like the taste of Foie Gras, as they consider it to be too rich and fatty.
4. Geese are force-fed against their will, and killed as any farm animal would.
The only difference between these two delicacies is that western chefs are 'taught' to be comfortable with process of making Foie Gras. They are 'taught' to think it's okay to force-feed the Goose, that they're physiologically different from us, and that shoving metal tubes down their throat doesn't hurt them as much as we imagine it to be, so it's okay to do it.
So as long as we are used to the idea, it's perfectly normal. After all, western chefs make good money off of serving Foie Gras. But Shark fins? No western customer has ever came in demanding those. So it's pretty useless in his/her eyes.
The only argument the western Foie Gras' got going for is that the Goose species isn't endangered, since it's bred in a mass farm, in a cramped space, being force-fed periodically.
Yea, I find this video very hypocritical. Oh and then there's the problem of Eurpoean fisheries over farming the fish and devastating local ecology. Oh and then there's western demand for large fish, which has created this monster of a shrimp farming economy in Southeast Asia that's basically creating the most disgusting thing you can put in your mouth, yet westerners still buy them up.
Yea. So... Why is Ramsay, someone who's openly endorsing these products by constantly releasing recipes using Foie Gras and other unethical shit, hosting this video?
How Tyrion Would Like to Die
I prefer the age of the characters in the TV production. I doubt there could be any substantial "historical accuracy" reasoning behind graphic sexual descriptions involving 11 and 13 year olds. Oh, and there is some bad writing in the first book at least (as far as I have come). I kind of miss the grandeur in the book though.

It's just a question of numbers. As long as the fundamentalists are in the minority everything is peachy and we should tolerate them.

CULT of Ron Paul
As far as I know, we atheists are not connected to any religion.>> ^entr0py:
>> ^deathcow:
If RP was an athiest... do you think he would come out with it and have absolutely no chance at reelection ever? I think all politicians are "Christians" in the USA
Well the congress is mostly Christian except for the 39 Jewish, 3 Buddhist, 2 Muslim and 1 Atheist members of congress. And the 6 others who are not affiliated with any specific religion.

But is there actually any reason to doubt Ron Paul's professed religious beliefs? I thought much of his appeal was in not cynically bullshitting in order to pander to voters.

Uh... no. That is how the penis evolved and changed along with man.
Kind of like the appendix? Thinking evolution is this beautiful, perfect thing is no less foolish than the creationist view. (not that I support or disprove cutting...don't really even think about it)

I think it's getting to the point where it's better for you in this country to grow up poor rather than rich? I mean if it wasn't for guns and stuff...rich kids get the diabetes and the psychopath moms that wanna nuke them and fuck them up in some way.
Ok I'm wrong poor people are definitely worse off but...meh I've got nothing, this is bullshit.

What is the best Super power? (it's not what you think...)
Wouldn't flight without an engine, except jumping and wings, have to be manipulation of gravity?
I figure that is the way Superman flies. Hes not jumping or gliding, but he is manipulating gravity (also, he is a machine, but let's not get into that now)
Anyway - since gravity manipulation would render you pretty much invulnerable, and give you the ability to travel great distances and possibly the only way to "stop time" - I would go with that.
