How anybody flies without noise-canceling headphones these days is beyond me.

rab,

I just had a 9 hour flight where both bathrooms were plugged and aisles were completely covered in puke because this kid got so sick, and refused to throw up into a bag. Every time he got sick he ran from his mom and threw up somewhere else on the plane

Left flight with puke on my backpack and shoes. Whole back of the plane was vomiting throughout the flight due to the smell. Nobody could use the bathrooms for the last 3 hours of the flight. Even two of the stewardesses were crying by the end

My noise cancelling headphones were not effective

As a Catholic, for 95 Reeses, I would have let the whole thing slide 👍

Allen Pan keeps asking this question on the Safety Third podcast and it’s hilarious.

Nurse_Robot, in Get the boat

Yes, as long as the producer consents

RedditWanderer,

It actually gets worse… i saw this post here on lemmy.

When someone replied to her exactly that, she said she “didn’t always consent because she doesn’t always feel like it but she does it for her baby, is that still vegan??”.

She was looking for fight imo.

Nurse_Robot,

Yeah, she probably was. No one argues against a baby having milk, otherwise the baby would literally die.

Aabbcc,

Is roadkill vegan

helpImTrappedOnline,

How about all the bugs you splat on your windshield?

Nurse_Robot,

Did roadkill consent?

I’ve often had this silly scenario in my head.

You walk into a celebrated high class restaurant, and at the bottom of the menu, it reads “Human meat steak. $10,000”. You ask the waiter who fetches the chef. The chef comes out and explains that after decades honing his craft, he feels like he’s a master of his craft, and now he’d love the honour of cooking a steak taken from his own body. If anyone purchases the steak, a skilled surgeon will remove half a pound of meat safely from the chef, who will then prepare it for you, and the chef is visibly keen to serve this.

As a vegetarian, I honestly don’t feel that this would bother me, if I had money to spend, the only reason I wouldn’t go for it is that I’d worry the chef would come to regret giving up chunk of his ass or leg or whatever, and I’d be partially to blame, or that the chef was not thinking straight otherwise.

Most entertainingly, I think it would be vegan.

I think this is a fantastic thought experiment. Thanks for sharing.

rwhitisissle,

This situation kinda reminds me of John Locke talking about slavery. He says that for some rights to be truly inalienable, that people themselves should not have the ability to willingly surrender them, such as by willingly selling themselves into slavery. Now, yes, John Locke owned stock in a slave trading company, so he’s a hypocrite in that regard, but I digress. I feel like this is one of those things where people shouldn’t be allowed to physically sell parts of their body for consumption, as “not being eaten by other people” is one of those inalienable rights we should have as a society.

Jokes on john locke, i’m an organ donor anyways 😎

but to a degree I agree. in that chef example, at any point the chef could revoke consent and stop at any time. Likewise, somebody shouldn’t be able to sell themselves into slavery but it would be fine to agree to do work for free or under slavery conditions as long as you can revoke consent at any time. But the right should be inalienable such that nobody should be in a position where they could be coerced into doing that, it would have to be 100% voluntary and enthusiastic. Like if somebody was in a position where it was either agree to being a slave or be homeless or starve or otherwise suffer, then I would argue society has failed them, we didn’t protect their rights adequately

rwhitisissle,

Jokes on john locke, i’m an organ donor anyways

Right, but there’s no more harm that could come to you after you’re dead, so being an organ donor wouldn’t really qualify in this context. Your organs being donated after death diminishes you in no way and also potentially enriches the lives of others.

Jorgelino,

You don’t have to be dead to donate organs. And donating something like a kidney does impact your health.

rwhitisissle,

Sure, but also on a very basic level organ donating is not the same thing as selling yourself into a lifetime of inescapable slavery.

Jorgelino,

For sure, but i’d argue it’s maybe comparable to the chef example.

OP, I hate to break it to you but…

tacobell.jp/locations

There appear to actually be Taco Bells in Japan. So let’s just say Ferrari, meet Nurburgring.

stillwater,

I’m not sure what’s worse, suggesting Mexican food makes people go to the bathroom or suggesting Taco Bell is Mexican food.

Annoyed_Crabby,

OP probably mean Taco Bell will have the same effect.

ghostdoggtv,

All food makes you go to the bathroom. Mexican food done nothing wrong

1847953620,

definitely suggesting that taco bell is Mexican food is the worst one

spicytuna62, (edited )
@spicytuna62@lemmy.world avatar

I can see how I insinuated that taco bell is Mexican food, but I don’t actually think taco bell is Mexican food. Far from it. But it’s been memed for like 15+ years that taco bell gives you life-altering shits.

I seriously remember seeing this in high school as early as '07, but I’m sure it was probably going around before then.

I live in the OKC metro and if you’re looking for real Mexican food here, you’re pretty spoiled for choice. I won’t suggest we have the drop on Mexican food, but you can find some really great places here without having to look hard. Taco Bell is great because the food actually tastes pretty good and there are like four within a five minute drive of my house.

tigeruppercut, in Almost a shitpost.

While the lack of mexican food in large parts of japan is indeed tragic, the fact that you can go to any countryside izakaya (pub/restaurant) and get bottomless beers and whiskey sodas for 2 hours for like 20 bucks means that the fancy toilets are getting explosive diarrhea on a regular basis.

Shelena,

I have this and I have CPTSD. However, I am sure that there can be other causes as well.
