RECIPE SITE UNLIKELY TO BE VISITED

PETA president (and compulsive correspondent) Ingrid Newkirk writes to Michael Moore:

“There’s an elephant in the room, and it is you,” PETA president Ingrid Newkirk wrote in a letter to Moore.

Newkirk urged the rotund Moore to become a vegetarian, which many nutritionists say is a good way to lose weight, and visit PETA’s Web site GoVeg.com for veggie recipes.

As it happens, elephants are vegetarians.

1. So… she’s trying to get him to value her opinion by telling him he’s an elephant.

   I better send her a copy of “How to make friends and influence people”.

2. My diet recommendation for Mike Al-Moor: Eat sh*t and die.

   Old American good-will wish.

3. Perhaps Mikey could spice up his steamed veggies with this.  You know, in retaliation for Ingrid calling him an elephant…

5. As it happens, elephants are vegetarians.

   
   And tigers aren’t; so is it okay to kill tigers?

6. #5 Nah, it’s suvival of the fitest. Natural selection. The Law of Nature.

   Which is exactly the reasoning I’m using tonight as I slay this brisket on the BBQ. I naturally selected this prefectly fit brisket upon which my survival is dependent. I love nature.

7. Headline: Newkirk trampled, gets between Moore and food trolley ...

8. #6 TB:

   I say ban BBQs. Really good, top-quality, expensive steak is actually pretty good raw. Watch for the bloodstains though - they’re a bugger to wash out.

   Posted by ThinAndBritish on 2007 06 27 at 11:35 AM • permalink



9. So Moore would be reduced to eating a continuous stream of french fries fried in vegetable oil. Or just deep-frying his vegetables…

   It wouldn’t drop his calorie intake, but it’d be “vegetarian”.

   Posted by Rob Crawford on 2007 06 27 at 11:38 AM • permalink



10. Moore on mung beans? No thanks!

    Posted by egg_ on 2007 06 27 at 11:45 AM • permalink



11. I actually feel a bit (very small) bit sorry for the MooreOn.

    Posted by Rob Read on 2007 06 27 at 11:47 AM • permalink



12. They’re never happy are they?
    To give Moore his due, he’s done more for the Left in the English speaking world than any other activist. Is that enough?
    No, they want more (Moore). He has to conform to every canard of the far-left or he’s just not “in.”
    Left, left, left right left.

16. Ingrid is also an insulin-dependent diabetic. As such her sources are animal-based (disapproved by PETA) or derived from GM bacteria (also disapproved by PETA).

    Its tough, these ethical dilemmas.

17. Ingrid, that’s so inspiring. Usually I avoid the whale sashimi, but guess who’s coming to dinner!

18. Perhaps Mr. Moore might do humanity a service and eat Ingrid Newkirk.  She is, after all, a vegetable.

19. Don’t most vegetarians usually seem to be a bit fat?

    Maybe they lose weight, just not fat.

    Posted by aaron_ on 2007 06 27 at 01:10 PM • permalink



20. aaron_, in my experience vegetarians tend to be lean, and not of the Mike Moore variety.

    Posted by daddy dave on 2007 06 27 at 01:18 PM • permalink



21. In my experience vegans tend to look like walking cadavers.Moore on the other hand looks like a beached whale.

    Posted by greene on 2007 06 27 at 01:25 PM • permalink



22. Great. Now the Pachyderm Action Committee of Ontario has contacted me through PACO International and demanded that PETA mind its own business as if Moore becomes a Vegan, there’ll be nothing left for them to eat. And Moore and elephants in competition for food would not be pleasant. Tusk, tusk, tusk.

23. Ms. Newkirk was actually misquoted.  Her real sentence was: “There’s an elephant turd in the room, and it is you.”

    Now who’s up for some freshly roasted Spotted Owl?

24. “There’s an elephant in the room, and it is you,” PETA president Ingrid Newkirk wrote in a letter to Moore.

    This is an insult to elephants.

    Posted by RebeccaH on 2007 06 27 at 02:10 PM • permalink



25. Doesn’t Ms. Newkirk know that stoves and ovens increase your carbon footprint and contribute to global warming?!?

    If she really cared about the planet and its creatures, she would be urging MM to embrace a raw food diet.

    Neo-con fascist wench!

26. #22: Thanks, Andy, for taking care of that little matter. Quality customer service for our clients - which is particularly important in this case because these guys don’t forget.

    Posted by paco on 2007 06 27 at 02:53 PM • permalink



27. Incidentally, if anybody gets the, er, inside skinny on Moore becoming a vegan, let me know; I’m standing by, ready to short pork bellies on a moment’s notice.

28. “There’s an elephant in the room, and it is you,” PETA president Ingrid Newkirk wrote in a letter to Moore.

    Michael is an elephant.  She considers this a criticism… 

    It’s blasphemy.  PETA will be asking for her resignation very shortly for maligning those poor creatures… right?

29. “You’re obese, Mr. Moore…”
    “I want a second opinion!”
    “Ok, you’re ugly, too.”

32. As it happens, I am a carnivore.  If you will give me an elephant burger today, I will pay you on Tuesday.

33. It’d be nice to see Moore use his considerable talents in entertainment provision to go after these self-righteous pieces of shit.

    Posted by AlburyShifton on 2007 06 27 at 05:47 PM • permalink



34. What’s the easiest way to become a vegetarian?

    Move to Cuba and live and eat like a local.  Michael will be rake thin in no time.

    A dose or two of dysentary along the way might help as well.

35. Newkirk can have my pork chops and crackling when she can pry it from my cold,grossly distended colon!!

    Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2007 06 27 at 06:45 PM • permalink



36. Don’t people find it somewhat incongruous that Newkirk is also a huge motor sport fan, staying up ‘til all hours of the night to watch Formula 1?

    If you haven’t seen it yet then here’s the link for PETA kills animals. Send it to all of your PETA supporting friends.

39. PETA actually stands for Packaged Entrails for Transfer to Australia. Does your vegemite taste different, lately?

41. As it happens, elephants are vegetarians.

    I’d have said “herbivores”.  Vegetarians are humans who choose to not eat meat.

42. “As it happens, elephants are vegetarians.”

    Yes, but are hippos?

    As it happens, elephants are vegetarians.

    And tigers aren’t; so is it okay to kill tigers?

    Jeebus, Andy. I’ve got feelings too.

46. So Newkook, what does foot-in-mouth taste like?

47. 41. Elephants are not herbivores, they are vegans, though they do occasionally eat Indian.

51. I once saw some kook on t.v. who had given up meat and had even thrown her stove out.  Not only was she a vegetarian, but she had begun sitting and staring wide-eyed into the sun in an effort to get energy and curb appetite.  See what eating no meat will make you do?  Perhaps Mr. Moore could try this solar diet as well.
