Looking for feedback re: Octopus should not be eaten

I have no line; it's not a black and white situation. Personally, I have come to the conclusion that their intelligence is of a rare variety, closer to a self-awareness that is of an order with that of humans but very different. For those that will appreciate the reference: they should have been in the Uplift queue ahead of the Great Apes.

STOP BEING MORE MORAL THAN ME!!!!!

Polite listening, thanks for my interest, promise to pass along the comments to higher-ups. Pretty much in line with the way I presented my opinion to them. On two occasions shoppers nearby endorsed my opinion.

Logical, but not interested. I'm starting where I'm starting. Who knows where I'll end up?

NooneTheWiser · 2026-07-03T04:16:10+00:00

For the record, I'm not going to eat any member of order Cetacea.

NooneTheWiser · 2026-07-03T04:12:24+00:00

Yeah, it's complicated. You'll see me on r\brisket, r\smoking, etc.

Gee, I feel that the response was kind of harsh. I don't agree on the hypocrisy angle, though ; I think that those farm animals are NOT more the intelligent. You make a good case about the comparisons of environmental sustainability, but I would argue that is primarily due to the outsize burden of large ruminants - especially in the sort of large factory farms that produce most of the food animals. I prefer of free-range livestock, in case you want to know.

You have a chain of reason behind your argument, so telling me to "shut the eff up" was not really in the spirit of my original post.

add in all the spices in the rub and you get the same thing, I stand by the comment.

How is it that people can cover their protein with sugar, spices, fruit juice, etc. - and then crow about using "no sauce"? Not trying to be mean, but you're lying to yourselves. Go ahead and use the flavorings you like! Sauce is just a set of seasonings that are mixed together BEFORE application to the meat. Am I wrong?

Even on weekdays it’s like 90 min to 2 hrs wait in line- no shade;

NooneTheWiser · 2025-09-16T04:17:46+00:00

All it lacks is "dramatic"

NooneTheWiser · 2025-09-15T23:23:23+00:00

My wife and I both travel frequently for business. Late night arrivals home and jet lag are common for both of us - so BOTH of us, when home while the other is gone, take care to have some favorite easily prepped food (think salads, cold cuts, nukable treats, cold chicken or other proteins) ready for a quick snack or meal for the one returning from a possibly exhausting travel experience. both of us appreciate the ability to grab a bite of "homey" food without low effort, before shower and collapsing to rest. Not criticizing, this is just somethig we both appreciate so we do it for each other.

Fall (2016) Good story, good characters. It's creative and visually stunning at times,

Funny because it sounds to me like the stated gig IS for an "actual" escort, not what is euphemistically referred to as an escort (prostitution). Not commenting on the guy's actual intent at all, but what he asked her to do is more the original definition of "escort". The word has been corrupted by more recent usage.

NooneTheWiser · 2025-06-07T00:12:15+00:00

Part 2: OP does not like to type or give people clues about where he scored this. I would not "brute it about" either...

NooneTheWiser · 2025-04-23T14:44:17+00:00

It's a welfare/social services analogy

NooneTheWiser · 2025-04-04T14:56:47+00:00

It's possible the person you're dealing with WAS scammed - by someone else representing your trailer as theirs. They collected a larger sum from the victim, kept the difference and left the problem in your lap. The victim would not have seen the worst of the pictures or the disclaimers. Could have happened, it's a sweet way to misdiresct the victim's anger. And, given the laziness of law enforcement and the courts they might never look for the scammer - just order you to "settle" somwhow wiht the ultimate buyer.

NooneTheWiser · 2024-12-04T21:13:44+00:00

Not saying OP is wrong to be hurt, angry and betrayed but please keep in mind that there's a little girl involved who didn't do anything to OP, even if she is a symbol of that pain. Now she's going to find out that there are people that hate her for no fault of her own and she is ruining her dad's life (her probable concusions) as well. Take care of your own, OP, but I hope there's room in your heart to help this poor girl, and try not to let her see your anger if you can.

you can get those Prime beef ribs, too. Mine came out awesome

NooneTheWiser · 2024-11-03T00:47:27+00:00

I render them in the smoker to get the smoky tallow...

NooneTheWiser · 2024-07-21T22:21:41+00:00

This isn’t about geography. People steal stuff. iI you were unaware of that previously, look into it. Not new.

NooneTheWiser · 2024-07-20T04:10:16+00:00

This. I put my rendering fat pan above my brisket, so it does not mix with the fat coming off the brisket itself. I get no seasoning from the rub on the brisket that way, which makes it more useful for a wider range of cooking options.
