Is that 'vintage' book in your personal collection T.S.? :laugh:

Am I the only one on here who UNDERSTANDS what Dollface means?

She feels so strongly about this that she wanted to use this forum to express her feelings - without wanting to argue with anyone who opposed her view.

I think that she could have worded the last part of her post better, but I completely understand her - and I agree with her outrage at this callous bastard.

.

Well OK, even if we do accept the forum as "Serious Debates, News, and Impotent Rage Rants for the Purposes of Venting Frustration", which I personally am all for because it makes good toilet reading, still... The way to do that would be to have the rant and then close the browser. Not tag on a caveat of "If you disagree then you are just as bad as him and probably have Simba in your basement as a sex slave, crying, bleeding, and secreting all over your vintage animal skin flooring."

That's not just saying that you, personally, don't want to engage in further debate: it's attempting to place a block on the debate itself. "You can't disagree, OR ELSE!"

As it's from the 70's, I had assumed that you wrote it in your prime. :hehe:

"Do you ever read a sexy SD&N post and think, wow, that's the woman for me? Do you have to desperately try to stop yourself from obtaining the sexy member's IP address, contacting her ISP posing as a government agency to obtain her home address, travelling there, getting access to the house under the guise of needing to read the electricity meter, grabbing her, taping her hands, feet and mouth with duck tape, and then forcing her to live in your basement with Simba? Well then you need this book: How To Pick up Chix 2: TiBB edition."

But you and I are 'seasoned pro's' when it comes to Serious Debates T.S, and WE never get anywhere, so if Dollface is aware of the FUTILITY of the - often overheated - arguments on SD, then perhaps we should understand her 'caveat'.

Cheeky Twot. :laugh:

Doll face transcends us all, Perhaps.

Possibly.

I really wonder if i exist on the same planet as the rest of you sometimes. :conf:

IT'S A ****ING LION FFS. A MAN-EATING VIOLENT BEAST.

if there were lions roaming free in the UK you'd be killing them too!

The UK is not a reservation wild animals..... oh, wait.

The UK used to have wild animals capable of killing people. you killed them all. but you condemn africans for doing the same thing.

And the lion was not shot on a reservation.

No, we condemn Americans for doing it.
Yes hunter gatherers killed lions, now there's walmart for clothes/food.

Exactly.
The people that take the money from these Big game hunters are more at fault, they must have known Cecil shouldn't have been shot.

Bit of a ridiculous argument there. Anyone that doesn't agree with you is just as bad as him?

I'd say the people who are using this man to spout their own malevolent self justified bile are worse than someone who simply disagrees with your opinion. As I said before, try him in a court of law or leave him be. People are just using him as an excuse to spew their bile at this point.

except it was africans that killed the lion wasn't it, the american thought it was perfectly legal and part of a conservation effort. he was told it was an old lion that was going to die soon anyway. he was lied to by the Africans. It was the Africans that did this and were profiting from it.

I think he was more talking about the fact that we wiped out wolves and bears in the UK, for the benefit of agriculture and animal husbandry... a major prerequisite in the development of things like supermarkets, funnily enough.

I get your point about it not being the Africans themselves killing dangerous animals though, but people travelling specifically to do it.

For me, personally, I do think it's all morally very murky, though what really grates on me is the decadence of spending that sort of money for this. The sort of money that would make a serious difference in a lot of people's lives - and this tit is spending it on something like this. It bothers me in the same way that I find it abhorrent that that Minaj creature "lost an £11,000 dress" - or rather, that she not only spent £11,000 on a dress in the first place, but also it meant so little that she wasn't watching it like a hawk.


...I... I just don't give a stuff about the actual lion :shrug:. Apparently that makes me a monster but I just don't. It stirs precisely zero emotion in me.

It doesn't make you a monster, it means you have a healthy perspective.
