Lame-assed, stupid PETA.
Idiots!!!

(37,748 posts)I think you're confusing literalism with message-branding.
On the other hand, I also think you're doing it intentionally simply to validate your biases... as it's difficult for me to believe anyone is so dull as to take a commercial literally.

(40,416 posts)That's why I take nothing they say seriously. NOTHING!!
After all, they once recommended that Ben and Jerry's use human breast milk to make their ice cream. Really! That resulted in new recommended flavor names.
Nipple Ripple! And my favorite, I Can't Believe it's not Mother
PETA is a disgrace. Always.

(40,416 posts)My best to you.
just seems like an over-reaction to a stunt
longship
(40,416 posts)Why take them seriously?
I certainly do not.
PETA == People Eating Tasty Animals.
That's all the respect that they deserve.

(15,805 posts)The only thing that is lame-assed and stupid is the idiot rich man who killed a elephant to cut off it's tail for a trophy. Yeah, Jr. should be deported to an elephant preserve in Africa without a gun and let him see what a hunt looks like from the other side.

(40,416 posts)After all... Ben and Jerry's Nipple Ripple, plus nearly every one of PETA's ridiculous pronouncements over the years.
That's why nobody takes them seriously. NOBODY!
As always.
People Eating Tasty Animals!

(15,805 posts)some of PETAs efforts to minimize animal abuse and needless suffering. I can't see the benefit of throwing the baby out with the bathwater just because they are not perfect in everything they do, few organizations can make that claim, so good on them for calling out a wretch like Junior who kills for thrills.

(40,416 posts)Who can support anything like Nipple Ripple?
They are nothing but laughable Internet trolls.
I laugh in their face.

No name is assigned to the picture. He looks scruffy and the lighting is bad, so people on the border might even think it's a Mexican.

(70 posts)No one seems to notice it's not a elephants tail he's holding! It's a trunk!!!!

(15,805 posts)Besides, an elephant's trunk in huge -- 400 lbs x 7 ft -- so it's not something that it could be held in one hand.
