It is Inherently Wrong that that pig is eating ham. =) 

He's a cannibalistic pig. Showing the extremity of his gluttony. Pigs one of the animals in the animal kingdom know for their high level of cannibalistic tendencies. Even without a food shortage, pigs will maul then eat each other as well as their young. Even worse, pig cannibalism is increasing especially in the 'houses' they keep the pigs in for commercial purposes. 

Just reading your comment about 'piggy cannibalism' kinda made me queaaasy--NO PIGGY TIME for this girl too! Enjoy your STYLISH choc stilettos :) 

It's kind of gross isn't it? It's a visualization which helps me to stop eating haha 

Dissection - eeek! Glad you were in to it, but you couldn't pay me to do something like that. If you are really into blankets these days, then maybe you should get yourself one of those "snuggies", it's like a blanket with sleeves. It looks pretty silly, but it actually is very comfy. 

A snuggie?? Sounds ideal.. I wonder if they have launched in NZ yet.. We are behind with EVERYTHING! 

I'm sure you can get it on Amazon or e-bay if you can't find it in the store. 

OMG I just found one online. They are SOO cute. I'm sold. Thank you :) 

They have them at Walmart as well! If you sont want to spend the money on shipping. They come in pink too, my fave color! 

I found a few on the NZ version of ebay. Oh pink!!!! The only color I've seen so far is navy and leopard and leopard is sold out. I love pink myself as well as animal print but i doubt they come in pink leopard print :( 

I want a snuggie, and I want the skully one off thinkgeek.com. =) This week I was looking at pictures of pigfarms, and I won't get too graphic but there were clear signs of cannibalism. Which, in domestic pigs, is a sign of malnutrition or madness. So wrong, especially when pigs are such smart critters, as well as being tasty. I'm a strong believer in giving the best damn quality of life possible to the animals we eat, out of respect, gratitude, and responsibility. 

My husband got me the pink 'snuggie'for Christmas--for those chilly Iowa nights when I'm at the computer rotting :) It IS nice because they allow you to have your arms free. On the commercials they show people wearing them to sports outings,etc. Don't know if I'm QUITE ready to wear mine in public though :) 

Aww cute!!! Pigs eat their young even in the wild particularly first time mothers. I'm not a very big fan of pigs as you can probably tell, so I probably amplify that with my personal bias. As well as their behavior, I don't even like piglet on pooh bear. I think animal rights are important. The treatment of pigs is cruel, disgusting and damn right wrong!! Although I don't eat pork at all But do eat that fake chicken bacon. I think the poultry industry needs a major overhaul :). Stehanie: haha I don't think i'd wear a snuggie in public either 

I love thinkgeek.com my guymate got me one of those star wars pen drives hehe. Cos he says I'm Darth Vader haha 

Snuggies come up every now and then on www.firstin.co.nz and www.1-day.co.nz - super cheap! 

Have a good weekend heiress, I hope you liked the SimpleNote app. :-) 

Oh I did. I adore SimpleNote. Thanks info :D 

Glad to see the Snuggie idea is popular. As to the pigs - the mass production of food has been one of the scariest things I have discovered since I became aware of where my food comes from. All the animals - pigs, chickens, cows are not being treated humanely. We actually had a proposition on the ballot here in California in 2008, it was about humane treatment of farm animals, and it passed something like 67%. This to me is a great sign that shows people are becoming more aware of the mass production problems and are beginning to seek change.  

Snuggie forever!!! Yeah, the chickens are just as bad, although I make an effort to buy free range organic chicken. It makes me sad just thinking about it. I think we definitely should be aware of what we eat and where it comes from. I had chickens as a child and hand fed them, I have a weak spot for chickens, they're like babies. But, on the other hand, a lot of people are put of by the extra cost of these things. Which I think is even more sad!
