Those clubs are designed to smash through the skull causing instant death. They don't work 100% of the time but they have been designed as the most humane method of killing the seals. They are not left to die or disembowelled alive. Not by hunters anyhow, by poachers maybe.

Exactly, if you're going to hunt, there's no need to draw the death out so long, that's just weird.
Never mind club it to death, I'd probably snuggle the life out of it. Still can't beat sloths and orangutans in cuteness for me though!

Um. Really? Hypocrisy? Let's see. How about we take your logic for a spin. What's more innocent and blameless than a newborn (or soon to be newborn) baby? Maybe that stuffed bear from the old Snuggle commercials, but that's another discussion. Let's plop the baby on one side of the scale. Now let's take the dirtbag who shot up Giffords, that 9-year-old girl, and a bunch of innocent bystanders. He goes on the other side of the scale.

You're saying that I'M screwed up for wanting to protect the baby while being fine with a premeditated murderer being called to account for his actions.

If I indeed equated babies to capital criminals, then call me hypocrite all day long. What astounds me is YOUR apparent "logic."

"wrestling with blankets is silly"



??? have you ever felt "silly" Snuggling into a blanket ? idiot marketers

Do not taunt the nuclear razorblades after they have learned to throw sharp pointy objects with a degree of accuracy.

And why the hell are the crazy ones so much better in bed......

She has the Abilities of a blender and emotional stabilizability of a pcp addict. Good times!

True story, Dated a red head for a couple of years. I was working Hazmat response to a large corporations computer chip manufacturing plant. After being at work for about 36 hours do to rather nasty accident. I went home. No one was living with me at the time and I had not given her a key yet so I closed and locked the door put the chain on it. Took a long shower and crashed. A couple of hours later I felt her snuggle up to me and I thought how nice. Then It hit me. I live on the damn 5th floor and the only way in to the apt was to climb up the balcony's outside. I swear I hit the ceiling when I jumped out of bed...

By this logic, love of god is equal to scavenging, deserting, betraying, divorcing and kidnapping.

And flossing.

Seriously though, when was the last time you were asked to put in 101%? I mean, they always ask for at least 110%! Which incidentally can be achieved by bludgeoning, trampling, partying, snuggling or vegetating...

Is this the same bear that the guy from Robot Chicken raped (or "snuggled"). I'm leaning towards yes. As it's been quite awhile since we heard from the poor bear.

At least he "snuggled" his way to a better job...

It's like a cat version of The World's Most Useless Machine
Angry declawed cats are the best. Ours was tearing up the wallpaper and my hands till we had her declawed. Now all she has is marshmallows of rage

Declawing is horrible cruelty. I think it should be made illegal. What's wrong with clipping the cat's nails every so often? Don't be lazy. It pretty much shows your lack of affection and concern for your animal.

No doubt it is. I had to watch her pad around on bloody bandaged paws for a fortnight. We did it as a last resort. Living as expats, not sure of how long we could keep an animal it didn't seem moral to get a kitten so we got a shelter cat. Turned out she'd been abused by her first owners fiance, and then spent several months locked up alone in a tiny box. By the time we got her it wouldn't have even been accurate to call her feral as a feral cat has survival skills and will often be quite friendly.
After a couple of months of her tearing up everything, and attacking us for petting, sitting near or just walking part her we asked the shelter guy for advice. He suggested dumping her out on the street, but at 3 years old already, and in a country where it's common to abuse and cut the tails of stay cats for kicks, it didn't seem fair. She was going to live as an apartment cat for the rest of her life, and if every interaction with humans resulted in her panicking and hurting them, making them freak out at her and reinforce her fears, then it was going to be a pretty miserable life.
I have lived with half a dozen cats that have lived since kittenhood in stable situations and never have for a second considered having their claws ripped out to make my life easier. This seemed, after exhausting plenty of other options, to be the best option.
Since we had it done, things have improved considerably for her. She spends most nights on the sofa snuggling with me or my girlfriend and sleeps in bed pretty much every night. She still has attacks of rage, but when she does now she isn't confronted by a yelling similarly pissed of human. If that's too much ambiguity for you then shrug


Sad. I can say I would probably have tried harder to work with her, and teach her we're not all out to get her, but then I wasn't in that particular situation, so I don't really know. The story you relate softens the blow a bit, but it still personally feels a bit extreme. Maybe if I had been in your situation, I would be able to better relate.

I could never have a cat declawed. Even if it took years of therapy and calming down, I would do anything in my power to rehabilitate, rather than chop my cat's toes off. It seems like adding more abuse to an already disturbed animal. But like I said, I wasn't there, so I'll assume you did everything in your power.

I do commend you for taking in a shelter cat and not having it put down when you discovered its mental state, though. That at least shows good intentions.

O.K., Global Warming IS real!!! I would like to offer a very effective hand operated fan to offset the warm. Only $25 for you, special price. I also offer you, at a special price, a small battery driven fan with a compartment for ice, that will keep you cool. If the warming should NOT happen, I offer you, at a special price, a comfy snuggle blankie for only $24.99. In addition, I offer an invisible condom that not only is invisible, but cannot be felt by anyone at a special price of $25, just for you!

It's ok. Life happens. And when compiling something like that, all the bad stuff sticks out more.

*snuggle*
