But from the oceanic dolphin wiki page:

Quote:

Six of the larger species in the Delphinidae, the Orca and the Pilot, Melon-headed, Pygmy Killer and False Killer Whales, are commonly called whales, rather than dolphins; they are also sometimes collectively known as "blackfish".

But it's a dumb distinction anyway. Animals are animals, it shouldn't factor into the argument over whether (or how) to kill them.

Why does Jinx owe you a coke?

Clodfobble · 02-01-2012, 08:36 PM

...I can't tell if you're really asking... if not, please pretend I'm not about to be a pedantic ass just below this.

so, ah, "Jinx!" is what you say when you and someone else say something at the same time. They "jinxed" you. And the debt of a Coke goes to whoever says "Jinx! You owe me a Coke!" first after the two people say something simultaneously. I dunno, it's just a thing that kids said in the 80s.

Not that I'm advocating this, but blood goes so much further in water/on snow, it's no wonder seal and sea creature hunts are always the subject of the complaints. it looks fucking terrible, but is there more blood lost than in -say- the preparation of Halal meat? It's just that that is a lot tidier, mesuspects.

Or are we shocked by which species is being eaten here? Because where do we draw the line there? How intelligent is inedible? How shall we test, and can we apply the same test and potential fate to members of the human race? Because many of them are too stoopit to live......

If intelligence is a measure of what we can eat, I can understand where cannibalism started from.

BigV · 02-01-2012, 10:30 PM

classicman · 02-01-2012, 11:13 PM

Does it involve a chainsaw accident?

BigV · 02-01-2012, 11:16 PM

the first rule of chainsaw club is don't talk about chainsaw club.
