I worry more about your concern about what aliens might think of us than having a tattoo.... It was just a point to illustrate the lack of functionality of a tattoo, and I hold my hands up, I have no response for why a tattoo needs to be functional. As an observer, they just make a bit more sense t...

I've never really understood what a tattoo can achieve that a bumper sticker or hallway art can't. I have no issues with people who have meaningful defining things they want to take to the grave: family stuff, their career, where they're from, life changing events. But I've seen bumper stickers with...

The 147: "clean break" (from snooker)

Where you wipe, inspect the damage and its (visibly) clean. Because of the good diet and constitution required for this rare event, its often the highlight of the day.

Super, it goes on to recommend how to cook meat. Thick. So you admit you didn't understand that meat's exclusion from WHO's version of a healthy diet meant it wasn't part of a healthy diet, and immediately went looking for anything that could feasibly be interpreted as backing your point? Interesti...

Do you think I didnt read it? Or nobody else has? Of course you didn't, otherwise you would have also stopped reading on dietary recommendations at "USDA". You scanned several articles til you found "cholesterol" and "good", and went with it. If you're not happy with Harvard, try the UK Heart found...

Broccoli - that veg's inclusion on a plate is for its nutrients, well above egg yolk. For protein, we'll be easily matching egg whites with lentils, beans, grains and nuts. But without the stroke. 3'kg of broccoli with a 500grams of lentils would make a delicious meal. So you deliberately limit you...

Audi

Dude I even linked Harvard medical research. Just restating your same contrary belief, "no they contain bad cholesterol that's bad for you" is the definition of narrow minded and stubborn. Science disagrees with your pre formed ideology. The article is Harvard Health Blog's reaction to USDA's dieta...

I can't believe most people are eating enough eggs to be causing a problem, the cholesterol in eggs is m...

The scientific evidence that dietray cholesterol is unhealthy is fast fading. There is good and bad cholesterol. Eggs provide more of the latter. I do not disagree with anyone says eggs contain good cholesterol. I'm just pointing out the bad outweighs the good and its counter-productive. the yolk o...

Modern farming in tunnels and irrigation towers use way less water again than "organic" field farming.... Yes, and even better, combine the two farming methods. Eggs are awesome you fool. As far as higher sources of protein go, eggs whites are a weaker alternative to almonds, oats and broccoli due ...

Regarding pollution, animal farming contributes more than you think. Its comparable to "transport". I think you're also underestimating the amount of water and associated land it takes to feed/produce 1kg of meat versus 1kg of veg, but I do like the argument that if someone wants meat, they have to ...

No, I find dancing to Asclepius while bathed in aloe vera, ginger and turmeric does a good job. Or, at least "did" until I had an infected leg amputated.

One of the best parts of my trips back home is going on a hunt the first weekend I'm there and then using that meat for daily braais for the remainder of the visit. :thumbup: Taking the vegan argument away, what sort of meat are we talking and what quality? Excellent free-range running around all d...

0.0000001% chance. The fact is that being a vegan is a first-world luxury. That is true despite the fact that some 2nd/3rd world communities still manage to be vegetarian at least. What is interesting is the rapid development of synthetic, lab grown meat. In other words, they can actually create re...

Chances of the world being 100% vegan - will never happen. It will get to 99%, but well after my death. People giving up smoking seem to be predicting how it will play out. Using a European Commission article, and replacing "smoke" with "eat meat", "cigarette" with "slice of ham", etc : European Co...

An interest in composting. An interest in building a home library. Turning down a one night stand (single at time), and not being able to justify it for any reason more valid than “can’t be bothered”. Secretly knowing if it was a bj, I’d have agreed. Having absolutely no interest in any football. Ha...

...I really struggle to believe that it's healthier to eat exclusively fruits and vegetables. The healthiest diet would probably be a vegan-style diet with all their obscure niche items, plus meat. Which is to say, a balanced diet. 100% correct statement within what most people consider as reasonab...

Works for me. I eat minimal red meat, history of colon cancer in the family but also finds it sits in me for ages these days. Fish, chicken, turkey, duck.. Can't give up cheese or yoghurt though, or eggs. Don't touch milk. I’m not a doctor but I don’t think colon cancer is genetic, though obviously...

B12, yep, you need a weekly supplement pill, the only one I take. Omega 3 I integrate flaxseeds and green leaf foods into my diet so not an issue. The only issue in fact with this is the vegans who decide they want that label but aren’t prepared to research what they should eat and in what quantitie...

I've been 99.9% vegan for a while now. I'll use the same serving forks everyone else is getting their chicken with to get my salad, if the littl'un has made a cake using eggs I'll have a slice rather than call him a f-ing murderer and I'll keep an eye on the bolognese sauce to help out, so I'm not r...

So for couples thinking about having children, one of the negatives may be putting up with meddling grandparents who take it upon themselves to brainwash your offspring whilst constantly reminding you of their wealth and the unconfirmed nature of their will.

I've also heard of people who were miserable having kids, having had them because it "was the done thing to do". Was that smart? An ex married a bloke (nice guy) who said "its now or never". I just shut my mouth as I fell outside the boundary of neutral, but could see it coming. He's now lost half ...

Dear all, I rarely post here. In fact I rarely overlook / lurk here.

I think it already happened, but the sport so much smaller, so it is on a smaller scale. Richmond or Newcastle or both did really well out of nowhere, though it was 99 percent of financial backing and player influx. One or both of them did really well out of nowhere, you wouldn't have bet on it 5 ye...
