Utopia Talk / Politics / Facebook Founder to Kill what he Eats
earthpig
GTFO HOer | Sun May 29 15:19:33 http://pos...nge-eating-only-what-he-kills/ Mark Zuckerberg's new challenge: Eating only what he kills (and yes, we do mean literally...) His e-mail to Fortune magazine: " To start, let me give you some background on what I'm doing. Every year in recent memory, I've taken on a personal challenge -- something to learn about the world, expand my interests and teach myself greater discipline. I spend almost all of my time building Facebook, so these personal challenges are all things I wouldn't normally have the chance to do if I didn't take the time. Last year, for example, my personal challenge was to learn Chinese. I blocked out an hour every day to study and it has been an amazing experience so far. I've always found learning new languages challenging, so I wanted to jump in and try to learn a hard one. It has been a very humbling experience. With language, there's no way to just "figure it out" like you can with other problems -- you just need to practice and practice. The experience of learning Mandarin has also led me to travel to China, learn about its culture and history, and meet a lot of new interesting people. This year, my personal challenge is around being thankful for the food I have to eat. I think many people forget that a living being has to die for you to eat meat, so my goal revolves around not letting myself forget that and being thankful for what I have. This year I've basically become a vegetarian since the only meat I'm eating is from animals I've killed myself. So far, this has been a good experience. I'm eating a lot healthier foods and I've learned a lot about sustainable farming and raising of animals. I started thinking about this last year when I had a pig roast at my house. A bunch of people told me that even though they loved eating pork, they really didn't want to think about the fact that the pig used to be alive. That just seemed irresponsible to me. I don't have an issue with anything people choose to eat, but I do think they should take responsibility and be thankful for what they eat rather than trying to ignore where it came from. " |

Member | Sun May 29 15:24:02 why should other people care who eats what? |

GTFO HOer | Sun May 29 15:29:58 The closest I've come to what Zuckerberg plans to do is have purchase a calf and have it taken directly to the butcher and from there directly to a large freezer -- none of the storefront butcher shops or grocery stores in that country had refrigeration and there was no equivalent to the FDA, so it was that or get fly-covered meat that has been out for who knows how many hours or days. About once a month, me and my buddies gave the cows names prior to delivering them to the butcher. |

GTFO HOer | Sun May 29 15:51:36 "when youre rich, you have all the time in the world to experiment with wacky ideas and shits." You've got it backwards. Being wealthy, by world standards, means you can afford to never make eye contact with anything you've eaten. Or do you think subsistence farmers, herders, fishermen, etc, are the rich ones in this world? |

GTFO HOer | Sun May 29 15:58:47 Back in the third world, I recall seeing a restaurant employee slaughter a goat in plain view of the customers. Most Americans are to pussified to tolerate even something like that. " Unauthorized and Restricted Activities The following activities have been declared unauthorized and restricted by the Boy Scouts of America: # Boxing, karate, and related martial arts—except judo, aikido, and Tai Chi—are not authorized activities. # Hunting is not an authorized Cub Scout or Boy Scout activity. # Technical tree-climbing with ropes or harnesses is not authorized as an activity. " THAT is a mutherfucking PROBLEM in our society, and I assume fishing is next up on the chopping block. Whatever the differences Zuckerberg and I have, this isn't one of them. I absolutely applaud him for this personal year-long project of his. |

You take a bite off that, and youre in heaven. Skin and meat at the sametime. Now look at the yankee version. Thats not roasted pig, thats like smoked pork. Doesnt look appetizing at all. Skin looked like leather and the meat, well it looked like chickenmeat is how white it looked. They had to add BBQ sauce to swallow that shit. Hahaha. No contest at all. |

Thats how juicy, fresh and crispy that shit is. Pure fking gold. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MegdT7t0oHA No amateurs here. Look at that man. The meat is firm yet juicy, the skin is crispy, yet soft, the meat is flavored, the piggie looks properly roasted and looks appetizing overall. THATS A REAL ROASTED PIG. Not that shit you saw with those 3-5 yankee amateurs. That shit was a joke. |

Member | Sun May 29 16:31:17 Ultimately the real expense we face isn't the draw on our wallet but the draw on our time. Even when I have a four day weekend like I have right now, there isn't enough time to cram in everything I'd like to learn/experience. I blame rpgs that let you be a bad ass tank/Jedi/scientist/diplomat/mercenary all at the same time for misleading me. There should be an RPG where you work really, really hard for like 800 hours of game time and at the end of it, you end up broke and having to grind crappy tasks just to afford to be able to retire at a decent age. |

I've also slaughtered geese, one pigeon, and chickens. Poultry are weird to slaughter, slitting their necks feels like cutting an elastic band. Sort of like the feeling you get thinking about scratching a blackboard with your nails. |
