RE: The bad jokes topic 🐴🍹👨
This one was doing the rounds in the office yesterday:
Researchers for the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority found over 200 dead crows near greater Boston recently, and there was concern that they may have died from Avian Flu. A Bird Pathologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to everyone's relief, confirmed the problem was definitely NOT Avian Flu. The cause of death appeared to be vehicular impacts.
However, during the detailed analysis it was noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the bird's beaks and claws. By analyzing these paint residues it was determined that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with trucks, while only 2% were killed by an impact with a car.
MTA then hired an Ornithological Behaviorist to determine if there was a cause for the disproportionate percentages of truck kills versus car kills.
The Ornithological Behaviorist very quickly concluded the cause: when crows eat road kill, they always have a look-out crow in a nearby tree to warn of impending danger.
The scientific conclusion was that while all the lookout crows could say "Cah", none could say "Truck."

I've heard of vegans who object to eating stuff that was pollinated by animals! At that point I'm not even sure what they can eat. So obviously everyone will find their own point of comfort between what they believe (animal suffering etc.) and what they need (eat!).
I'm perfectly happy to let them find their own point of discomfort because they're morally unable to eat anything.
How about other vegans?
Eating the meat eaters would be the better long term strategy to reduce animal suffering.

@boomzilla It's only a shame it wasn't 6.5 dozen because then you would have bought a baker's dozen of half-dozens.

7.5 dozen
Since when do we express numbers in decimal amounts of dozens?
