No surprises how fucked up peta is.
The "cat fish" comes to mind, which is fished for. I wonder if that is an oversight. Someone should email them ;o

I'd just fish them and leave them on a nearby beach, and I'm gonna be MEANER THAN MAMA! about it.

Seriously PETA...

Why is that? A reaction or just distaste?
Fish is pretty decent, though I haven't tried much. But battered fish + fries + shrimp + mozzarella sticks is a nice little dinner.

I'd love to try cats and dogs like the chinese.

I hate fish. It's smelly and tastes like fish.

1. See people fishing.
2. Decide you don't like fishing.
3. Rename fish "sea kittens" so people won't eat so many.
4. ????
5. Profit FACEPALM

Seriously, sanity FAIL on their part.

I say we expand upon their study and see how people react to refering to kitties as fish. Fish sticks anyone? ;)

Eating fish makes you smarter.
Besides, there are tons of fish in the world, and they repopulate so quickly. Only a few fish are in danger, like some Salmon.

And if you think Fish sucks, or you're supporting this, go tell that to EVERY ASIAN COUNTRY THAT IS SURROUNDED BY WATER.
Actually, a lot of countries that are surrounded by water eat tons of fish. Nordic countries for example.

Although I suggest less use of internet memes, I must agree with this completely.

Would people think twice about ordering fish sticks if they were called sea kitten sticks?
No.

Would sea kitten soufflé be a hot seller at the local seafood restaurant?
Why not?

Does fillet o' sea kitten sound even remotely appetizing?
If I liked fish to begin with, yes.

Changing what something is referred to as wont change people's opinions about it. Especially when these opinions are already well established. >.> These people fail horribly.

This.

And btw PETA: Do we go out and make sea cow burgers because they have the word "cow" in their name? No. So why do you think something's name effects people eating it?

Sheesh, next thing you know they're going to want me to rename the Space Sharks in my mod "Space Kittens" so people don't eat their eggs for energy.

They should just rename fish to: ''Smelly pile of barf'' or ''Shit sticks''. That'll save the fish.

Oh_Man -- whereas just "press X to get 50 health back" is pretty mindless

Oh_Man -- because it adds anotherr level of player decision-making where u dont wanna walk too far away from the medic or u lose healing value

Oh_Man -- initially I thought it was weird why is he still using the basic pre-EUD medic healing system, but it's actually genius

Vrael shouted: I almost had a heart attack just thinking about calculating all the offsets it would take to do that kind of stuff
With the modern EUD editors, I don't think they're calculating nearly as many offsets as you might imagine. Still some fancy ass work that I'm sure took a ton of effort

Oh_Man -- definitely EUD
