This is a fucked up disturbing video. If you still shop at J.Crew after this...

Matty

have you ever had Duck Liver?

Pate?

Foie gras?

I get stuck eating all that shit at the places I go. But you should know better than most that I prefer the wings of the chicken to the liver of a goose or duck.

yep

thats it..

I didn't know what the hell I was eating at first.

Chef and I went to the Striphouse in Houston and had it, along with the best damn steak I've ever eaten. I found out what it was after I'd eaten it (damn cheffie... LOL)

but it was pretty good


Wings of course are better... get chur ass down here soon already

UUUmmmm.....??? If we hadn't already seen exponential growth from the past until now, it wouldn't be a fact. In other words, what you just said is absolutely false!

You know what exponential growth means mathematically, right?

Might wanna look it up again. I would suggest Wikipedia, they describe how there can be slow but expontial growth, as well as fast growth that is not exponential.

Don't confuse completely optimized mathematical models with reality; they are nothing alike. I would agree with using the term as an approximation, but not as "factual".

Wrong. Everyone who has a CHOICE between buying food at the supermarket and killing it, will buy it. Hunting is a sport now, not a need. Those who kill their food, need to do so to live.



Better off than they were 100 or 1000 years ago.




Really? Where?

Population growth in the US is slowing. Same is first - world Europe. Population grows (by definition) where it can be accommodated. In the last 50 years, the fastest growing populating was Saudi Arabia, because they had lots of money and capacity for growth. Now they are slowing down; the capacity is filled. Therefore, exponential growth will never ever ever happen without pre existing capacity - growth MUST by definiton follow capacity. It cannot create the capacity.




I have employees in China. I have some familairty with it. So I have to ask:
What does Earth's natural capacity have to do with Chinese lawmaking? Do you really seriously believe that China enacted those laws to protect EARTH's resources? hahahahahahahahahaah China is the biggest polluter on the planet.

Those laws were a means of the Chinese Communist party keeping power and speak nothing of Earth's capacity. You also further assume that Chinese collectivism is the optimal way to support a population. Again, WRONG.

FYI in the agricultural areas of China, the one child policy was never enforced.



Again, better than it was 100 years ago. The proof that it is better is very simple: their population is INCREASING. if it were so horrible, population would decrease, because they would die without reproducing. The very existence of an increase in population disproves your idea, dreg.



Cost? Stuff just keeps getting better.




You've thus far offered zero proof that this is happening. The examples you have attempted to use to support your position are easily discredited.



If they understand it so well, why do the fish keep biting the hook?

This could go on forever. I think the fact that as the human race has increased, numerous ecosystems and species have become extinct, which lends evidence to the parasitic relationship humans have with the earth. We actually just went over this in my environmental biology class. And yes it is true that human growth has slowed, but up until the last calculation, the growth was exponential. And actually only the time that the exponential growth is occuring has changed, not the exponential growth itself. Humans are intelligent which has allowed them to grow because we have found ways to rid ourselves of natural constraints, and without natural constraints, the earth has no way to balance itself out like you say it will. Look, I'm just gonna agree to disagree. Thank you for at least addressing all my comments this time instead of saying they were boring. The only species "stuff just keeps getting better" for is humans. When a species causes harm to its host without benefitting it, it is by definition a parasite. Please elaborate on how we benefit the earth aside from our egotistical claim that simply occupying it is good for it. A deadly virus acts as though it has the right to destroy its host. Luckily it can spread to other hosts to survive. Who knows, maybe we'll be able to spread to different planets to survive once we use this one up. This is obviously nothing anyone in our lifetime, or many generations to come, has to worry about so why bother right?

I agree... same with oysters IMO

popular and classy because its a big fuss to get it right. I prefer a good steak with pepper sauce and some fruit anytime
