Aquatarians Repent! Kurt Cobain Proved Wrong!

Whelp, there goes a nice moral rationalization for eating eating seafood. Turns out goldfish recognize and remember pain and dead salmon recognize human facial expressions. (WHAT.) You kinda always suspected, right? I mean, the way lobsters scream when you stab them.

All these years of wanting salmon to do my bidding and all I had to do was ask.

Courtney killed him. Forreals. I read this book and I'm convinced: http://www.amazon.com/Killed-Kurt-Cobain-Mysterious-Death/dp/0806520744/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1253325424&sr=8-1

I can't wait for the next installment of the 'Reel Fishing' video game series, where you can actually fish as Kurt Cobain!

Lobsters do not scream when you cook them -- they sigh, loudly.

I always figured this from the obvious emotional pain Charlie the Tuna displayed from being rejected by Star-Kist.

(As Choire says, ask your parents, kids.)

Then all my goldfish torture has not been for nothing.

The author of the salmon paper posted a nice explantation here (found by following the link above).

Basically, they demonstrated false positives easily result (e.g. dead salmon brain activity) if you don't apply the proper corrections. Just another setback in my dreams of salmon zombie army.

Now I wish my break-up with that goldfish in high school had gone a bit smoother.

i have a friend who works on the "eat anything that would eat you if it got the chance". so fish are ok, but i'm not sure about potatoes.
