Netflix : "My Octopus Teacher"

[Archimedes]

Watched it a while ago. Very good. Could have been a little shorter, but still worth the watch.

So if you have 2 intelligent species the one with more arms is the winner in the "Do not eat" contest?

I get if you have personal feelings for Octopuses but so do people with other animals so objectively your claim has no more weight than any other appeal to emotion.

You are correct! Oh, and note the humourous smiley......

 

[900ss]

Are you a vegetarian?

Nope.

 

[900ss]

Not intelligent enough to avoid being caught and eaten :laughing

So true....... :rolleyes

 

[Kurosaki]

Nope.

If you're not a vegetarian then it's a little weak to tell me we shouldn't be eating one animal while eating others is fine.

Being intelligent isn't enough justification. A lot of animals are intelligent.

It's just your personal feeling. And that's fine but let's not pretend it's anything other than that. I like trash pandas. If they were some sort of delicious delicacy, I'd feel bad about people eating them.

A quick google says only 3 out of over 300 different octopi species are endangered.

Being a threatened or endangered species is a good reason to cut back on eating [insert animal].

Good thing that most calamari that people eat is really just pig anus :later

 

[Kurosaki]

I don't even like most octopus dishes so I'm not defending eating them because I think they're yummy.

Even when I buy it from a fish store and clean and gut it myself? Amazing
