   Fish? Seriously?

2. Comment by maggie katzen on 1/9 @ 1:52 pm #

   *sigh* A fish by any other name, yadda, yadda, yadda.

3. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 1:54 pm #

   This is not new as these squishy morons were trying to “humanize” fish starting a few years ago.

   The though that this organization has a budget of over 80 Million dollars makes me depressed.

   Hi, BJT, former pal of mine.

   I’m sending you a sea kitten loosely wrapped in newspaper, btw.

   Just so you know.

   “It’s an Anti-Kitten cage.”

   “Anti-Kitten cage? You mean you go down into that thing?”

   “That’s the idea.”

   “Cage goes into the water, you go into the cage. Kitten’s in the water. Our kitten……..

   Farewell and adieu to you, fair Spanish ladies. Farewell and adieu, you ladies of Spain. For we’ve received orders for to sail back to Boston. And so nevermore shall we see you again.”

   So what will they call squid? “Sea gerbils”?

7. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:04 pm #

   Am I a butcher now? I’ve cleaned hundreds and hundreds of sea kittens. Will I be arrested? Will PETA throw fish guts on me?

   Is that guacamole leaking from my ears? Sadly, no.

8. Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 2:05 pm #

   Are grown fish “sea cats”?

   um, they both like caves don’t they?

   sounds good to me.

10. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:07 pm #

    Are Striped Bass “Sea Tigers?”

    I’d imagine that Flounders would be “Sea Roadkill.”

11. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:08 pm #

    Oh! Oh! Swordfish are “Sea Unicorns!”

12. Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 2:10 pm #

    No, narwhals got “sea unicorn” wrapped up.

13. Comment by maggie katzen on 1/9 @ 2:12 pm #

    I’d imagine that Flounders would be “Sea Roadkill.”

    no, no, roadkill is too negative. “Sea Blankets”

14. Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 2:13 pm #

    Flounder = “sea tortilla.”

15. Comment by maggie katzen on 1/9 @ 2:15 pm #

    but.. but… people eat tortillas.

    oh.

16. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:17 pm #

    Monkfish is “Sea Ugly.”

    Tuna is just delicious!

17. Comment by Salt Lick on 1/9 @ 2:17 pm #

    So everything on the menu will be “catfish?”

18. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:22 pm #

    “kittenfish,” Saltlick. For the children.

19. Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 2:25 pm #

    So a fishy smell is now a “sea kitteny” smell?

20. Comment by MarkD on 1/9 @ 2:27 pm #

    So what’s a seahorse? Sea Kitty Pony is unwieldy.

    Shark can be sea tiger, but what does that leave for Orcas? Sea sabertooth kitty?

    Stop me now, please.

21. Comment by Sdferr on 1/9 @ 2:29 pm #

    OT: This Burris Senate seating kerfluffle is turning into quite the Catch 22 or in the alternative, Kafkaesque nightmare. The Illinois Supreme Court rules today no signature By Sec State White is necessary, the Governor’s appointment is all that’s needed, therefore no mandamus to be issued. Meanwhile, U.S. Senate Democrat Leadership seems to be sticking with its demand that White sign the certification! Ha.

22. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 2:32 pm #

    So what will we call that “not-so-fresh” smell?

    Will this make the punchline, “a blind lesbian on a tuna boat” obsolete?

23. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 2:34 pm #

    For that matter, what shall call smelt in the future?

24. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:36 pm #

    #23: “Kitty Stench”

25. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 2:37 pm #

    Abd what about fresh water fish? What will pike, gar, bass, trout, carp or croppie be now called?

26. Comment by maggie katzen on 1/9 @ 2:39 pm #

    look. ALL fish are “sea kittens” you’ll just have to differentiate with “tabbies, torties, siamese, etc, etc…” it’s the other “not fish” critters we have to worry about naming. like snails. which I don’t really care about because they are disgusting. but whatever. knock yourselves out.

27. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 2:40 pm #

    I thought they were already calling it that, BJT.

28. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 2:40 pm #

    #25: “Sea Saltless.”

29. Comment by McGehee on 1/9 @ 2:45 pm #

    “Why are you swimming in the sea kittens’ litterbox?”

30. Comment by McGehee on 1/9 @ 2:46 pm #

    Oh, and any animal-rights lunatic who wants to cuddle a lionfish can just go right ahead. I may even buy a few and stage a petting zoo at the next animal-rights rally.

31. Comment by Obstreperous Infidel on 1/9 @ 2:49 pm #

    I love it. Both of my daughters (3 and 9) love steak, chicken, pork, fish, etc…They could call them “seapuppies” or “sea widdle widdle wambs” and my girls would still eat the SOB’s. Providing of course, they’re prepared just the way they like them. Hell, I’d think they might eat a PETA member if they got between their porterhouse or mahi mahi and them.

32. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 3:00 pm #

    After extensive debate, PETA today announced that crabs would not be renamed “sea lice”, starfish would not be renamed “sea anuses”, but lobsters would still be called “sea bugs.”

33. Comment by maggie katzen on 1/9 @ 3:01 pm #

    oh, are dolphins still “Rapists of the sea”?

34. Comment by The Sanity Inspector on 1/9 @ 3:04 pm #

    These are the same misanthropes who declared 9/11 to be less of a tragedy than the ongoing killing of poultry.

35. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 3:16 pm #

    PETA further announced after hours of discussions, clams and oysters are icky. And abalone could not be adequately renamed at all because, face it, they attach themselves to rocks via powerful suction and that’s just gross.

36. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 3:21 pm #

    In a final statement, PETA said, “don’t even get us started on jellyfish, but we do thing renaming man-o-war as woman-o-peace is, like, a no-brainer. Like, duh!”

37. Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 3:24 pm #

    clams and oysters are icky.

    Sea snot.

38. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 3:25 pm #

    PETA is, of course, the same pea brained moronic moralists who handed this out to kids at a Nutcracker performance.

39. Comment by BJTexs on 1/9 @ 3:25 pm #

    PETA “are”. Duh english

    “Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 2:03 pm #

    Well, thor would have something new to shove up his ass.

41. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 3:33 pm #

    PETA spokeperson, Abigail von Neuhausen, responded to the renaming campaign, “You expect me to believe that an octopus has a beak? Who would believe that? And can you knock it off with all the sexual innuendo?”

42. Comment by Squid on 1/9 @ 3:43 pm #

    C’mon, guys — be nice!

43. Comment by Spies, Brigands, and Pirates on 1/9 @ 3:44 pm #

    Sea Kitty Pony is unwieldy

    Maybe so, but if you made them out of pink plastic you could sell millions of them to seven year old girls.

44. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 3:48 pm #

    OK, squid will be renamed “sea party favors.” That’s nice, innit?

45. Comment by Salt Lick on 1/9 @ 3:49 pm #

    The show “Sponge Bob Square Pants” has been temporarily discontinued pending identification of a PETA hacker who made Bob enter a sea pet store and ask for a “little pussy.”

    For happyfeet, should he ever return:

47. Comment by Joan of Argghh! on 1/9 @ 4:33 pm #

    Sea Kittens? Then my local Chinese restaurant would have to call them “Chicken of the Sea.”

48. Comment by urthshu on 1/9 @ 4:49 pm #

    erm, yeah, that would pose huge problems for the chinese restaurants, hmm? Salt & pepper kitten would just play to all the urban legends…

49. Comment by Squid on 1/9 @ 4:50 pm #

    Cut me some slack, will ya? We hunt in packs, we communicate by changing our skin markings, we take out friggin’ whales for cryin’ out loud! We woulda killed that Captain Nemo freak if he hadn’t electrified the stupid Nautilus.

    We should be Sea Lions! (What? Really? Well, crap.)

    Okay — Sea Wolves! (What? Oh, you gotta be kiddin’ me!)

    Well, how ’bout Sea Hyenas? Is that one taken?

50. Comment by JohnAnnArbor on 1/9 @ 4:52 pm #

    “Sea Wolverines”?

51. Comment by kelly on 1/9 @ 4:55 pm #

    Sea Dingos?

52. Comment by urthshu on 1/9 @ 4:56 pm #

    Sea Zombies

53. Comment by urthshu on 1/9 @ 4:59 pm #

    Ooh, yeah – OT, ever seen those green President commercials for the tax peoples? I keep thinking if I’d get in trouble for shooting zombie presidents every time I see one. Do they have zombie Secret Service details? anyway…

    I didn’t write this and don’t know who did.

    Cat’s in the Kettle
    To The Tune Of “Cat’s in the Cradle” by Harry Chapin

    Did you ever think,
    When you eat Chinese,
    It’s not beef, fish, or chicken,
    But a fat Siamese.
    Yeah the food tastes great,
    So you don’t complain,
    But that’s not chicken
    in your Chicken Chow Mein!
    I swear that I ordered
    Sweet and Sour Pork,
    But Garfield’s on my fork, man!
    He’s purring there on my fork!

    And the Cat’s in the Kettle
    At the Peking Moon,
    The little Chinese place
    Where I eat at noon!
    They can feed you Cat
    And you’ll never know,
    when they fry it up in dough, boys,
    Fry it real crisp in dough!

    Chow Lin asked if I wanted more,
    As he was dialin’ up his buddies
    At the old pet store!
    I said “Not today,
    I lost my appetite!
    There’s two cats in my belly
    And they want to fight!”
    I was sucking on a Rolaids
    And a Tums or two,
    When I swear I heard it mew, boys,
    And that was when I knew

    That the Cat’s in the Kettle
    At the Peking Moon,
    I really gotta stop
    eating there at noon!
    They can feed you Cat
    And you’ll never know,
    when they fry it up in dough, boys,
    Fry it real crisp in dough!

    So… when is Eat a Tasty Animal for PETA day?

    I always forget and miss it.

    This year I intend to have an exotic meats feast. Our local grocer has ostrich, elk and buffalo, and sometimes rabbit and alligator.

    No matter what PETA says, though, I’m not going to waste the event by serving fish.

    Or chicken.

    Anything that doesn’t know that it’s dead when its head has been removed is a vegetable.

56. Comment by Synova on 1/9 @ 5:14 pm #

    March 15.

57. Comment by Jim in KC on 1/9 @ 6:06 pm #

    March 15 is too close to St Patrick’s day; they should move it to June or something.

58. Comment by Dan Collins on 1/9 @ 6:07 pm #

    I think they should make it the same day. Most of us St. Pat’s revellers could use a bit more to eat in the event.

    Mmmm, kittehs…

62. Comment by Pablo on 1/9 @ 8:39 pm #

    “Yeah, I’ll have a Filet-O-Kitty, large fries and a Coke.”

    Really, is PETA trying to get us to stop eating pussy? I’m envisioning a PETA/NOW showdown.

63. Comment by Celtic Dragon on 1/10 @ 1:02 am #

    I can haz sea kitteh?

64. Comment by ushie on 1/10 @ 3:28 pm #

    We have finally reached the point where Western Civilization sucks ass.

65. Comment by Conststant Conservative on 1/10 @ 7:31 pm #

    DC,

    Thanks for the link. Let’s hope that sea kittens don’t last any longer than “freedom fries.”
