Post #256,454 by Andrew Grygus 5/23/06 6:29:37 PM Reply	And after I let you off easy . . . . . on the cutting and gutting. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
Post #256,456 by ben_tilly 5/23/06 6:41:46 PM Reply	Of course you can... I was just explaining Andrew's behaviour. He was very precise. He did exactly what he said he would do. And as soon as what he said allowed him to do what you didn't want him to do, he did it. Just like a small child. The parallel works pretty well actually - it also includes his delight at showing gross stuff to someone he thinks is squeamish.

Post #256,458 by Andrew Grygus 5/23/06 6:54:18 PM Reply	Squeemish? I think she's faking it. Didn't she tell us some time back she disassembling rodents for income? Isn't she the one who told us how much she would miss the annual expedition to capture frogs, newts and salamanders? Then she tells us she has problems with pictures of fish? I really don't think so.

Post #256,468 by ben_tilly 5/23/06 7:33:45 PM Reply	I didn't say that she WAS squeamish Just that you thought she was. I'm glad that you realized that she isn't. BTW her ability to humor you by keeping up a good pretense reminds me of some mothers that I've watched. Coincidence?

Post #256,486 by Andrew Grygus 5/23/06 9:23:47 PM Reply	So we play. So sue us. Some people take this Internet stuff way too seriously, considering so much of it is really "lets pretend". [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
Post #256,593 by bionerd 5/24/06 9:52:51 AM Reply	Yeah, what he said. And besides, he's fun to play with. Follow your MOUSE
Post #256,478 by bionerd 5/23/06 8:34:57 PM Reply	Here's the difference I can gut, dissect, vivisect, fillet, mince and dice. But I wont eat it. That's the part that makes me squemish. That fish on a cutting board isnt dinner. Trade that cutting board for a dissection tray and you have an ichthyology lab project. Follow your MOUSE
Post #256,480 by ben_tilly 5/23/06 8:37:31 PM Reply	Can you cut it for someone ELSE to eat? I have come to believe that idealism without discipline is a quick road to disaster, while discipline without idealism is pointless. -- Aaron Ward (my brother)
Post #256,483 by bionerd 5/23/06 9:00:21 PM Reply	Yes, but It wouldnt resemble food by the time I was done with it. Seriously, it doesnt register as being food in my mind. I look at it and automatically run through the taxonomy- Kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species. I consider the features that make that species unique. I dont look at the muscle as something to eat. I look at the striation of the muscle fibers, think about what makes a muscle cell different from other cells, and how the muscle cell differentiated during embryogenesis. I cant eat that. I really am a bionerd. Follow your MOUSE

Post #256,485 by Andrew Grygus 5/23/06 9:21:38 PM Reply	Clearly you're not a farm girl. Having spent my childhood on farms, my early orientation is clearly much different from yours. We had a great deal of respect for our critters and took very good care of them, but eventually, they all became dinner. [link\|http://www.aaxnet.com\|AAx]
Post #256,488 by imqwerky 5/23/06 9:40:43 PM Reply	Aaaaaaack!!!!!! We had a great deal of respect for our critters and took very good care of them, but eventually, they all became dinner. You did that on porpoise!

I'll even go so far as to concede that today's postliterate teenagers are already sufficiently impaired by pop culture that anything that serves to make them even more scatterbrained is rather in the way of gilding the lily, and should not be encouraged.
