@Jennifer:
How many animals would go extinct if we, as a population, stopped raising them for food?
How nice…
That’s like saying that American Indians aren’t thanking us enough for deciding not to completely eliminate them.
When trapped in the wilderness, you are advised to eat wildlife, not plantlife. Why is that? Oh yea, meat has more calories pound for pound then plants and most meat won’t kill you in a horribly painful way. Also, without meat, we would not have the brains we do. Vegetarian animals are quite dimwitted. Carnivores are generally more intelligent.
I’ve never heard this.
Also, it’s entirely possible to fuel your brain appropriately without meat.
Of course, in a pinch, you can survive on iceberg lettuce for a few weeks. But you can survive for years and year and years on nothing but animals you kill. Get hydration and nutrition from the carcases, as well as items usable as tools and protection from the elements. Dunno, last time I checked, you couldn’t get that from a head of lettuce.
Since when were we talking about wilderness survival?
You can’t survive on animals only. You simply can’t, Jenn, not for a lifetime anyway. Just like you can’t get hydration from them, except, perhaps, drinking their pee. And that’s only in an emergency and not to be sustained. Otherwise you’d hear advice along the lines of “drink 64 ounces of water a day, or 8 ounces and a steak.”
@U-505:
Yes, but we were talking about the hottest women, not the most desireable. I believe that desireability is defined far more by what kind of person the woman is rather than physical beauty. It’s just bonus if they have a nice insert your favorite female body part here.
Hotness to me involves more than just the physical. Mannerisms, sense of humor, interests, etc., all attribute to hotness. Physical attractiveness weighs in a lot more than those other things, but someone who is pretty yet stupid, stuck up, and bitchy is not hot all at all.
Still, it makes good fantasy material to think that the pictures of those famous women that you see aren’t airbrushed for flawlessness, they possess all of the qualities that you desire, and that a geek like me could charm their pants off if only I bumped into them as they were just happening to pass though backwoods Mississippi. They would have to put in that much effort to find me, too, because I’m waaaay too full of myself and lazy to be a stalker. :-D
If we are talking about fantasies, then that’s a different ball game. :-D
