    I won't be impressed until they can make a healthy human male yearn for a nice healthy vegan dinner.

    What about a healthy human male yearning for a nice healthy vegan? ;-D

      Pfah, as everybody knows those Vegans are way too stringy. And so little meat on their bones... It really takes a master chef to prepare a half decent meal from one of them.

      I agree completely. Animals are just like black people. It is a little known fact that shaving cream was invented by wolves. I, for one, would like to be the first to welcome our new canine brethren and invite them over for a healthy vegan dinner.

    Just how did Pavlov get the bell to crave ice cream??

      Oh, give the editors a break:

      Humans have been trained to yearn for ice cream in the same way as Pavlov's fabled bell.

      I know that as written, it's saying that Pavlov's bell yearned for ice cream. But I'm sure they meant to say:

      Humans have been trained to yearn for ice cream in the same way as for Pavlov's fabled bell.

      . . . meaning that humans have been trained to want ice cream as badly as they wanted Pavlov's bell.

      After all, what else could they have meant?

    The only good Vegan is a dead Vegan. I remember back in The Big War, this cadre of those blasted three-eyed bastards from Vega was ... what? We got Earthians wantin' to be Vegans?

    Great Malda's Ghost! What is this world coming to? Don't those poor misguided Earth children know anything about the Vegans at ... vegetarians?

    Vegetarians?! What? What kinda damn philosophical movement names themselves after three-eyed bastards from space? Damn! Damn!

    I can't stand eating vegans ... tend to choke on their self-righteousness.

    I was wondering about that too but then for 'new and improved' washing powder. Does anyone even know why your laundry has to be absolutely white? That is another case of programming the minds of innocent potential customers.

    Must be a slow day, I thought he said vagina dinner. I thought it was only the brothers who turn their nose up at good pussy.

    Humans obviously can NOT be conditioned like animals. Humans are not animals; they are the keepers of Our Lord's Earth. Humans were perfectly designed by the Grand Creator Lord Jesus On High. Let us pray that He will deliver us from those heathens in Alabama who are stealing our constitutional rights to free (as in beer) speech and freedom from illegal religions.
